Baby Brain

I enjoy documentaries , and I am really excited to see this one!!! It scheduled to come out April 2010, just in time for my birthday.






This is just for laughs

One for me, Please

Supported by a strategic relationship with Summit Global Group, a longtime Polaroid partner, and The Impossible Project, the manufacturer of classic film for Polaroid film cameras, Polaroid will offer a completely redesigned, modern version of the Polaroid OneStep camera, the PIC 1000. The PIC 1000 will be available in a range of fun colors and use classic Polaroid Color 600 Instant Film to produce the brand’s classic white border instant pictures. The Polaroid Color 600 Instant Film will work with both classic and new Polaroid cameras and will be offered in packs of 10 pictures. The new classic PIC 1000 camera and instant color film will be available at national retailers in 2010. -Polaroid Press Release



P.S. Where do you buy your Polaroid film?

I have 100 followers, that means giveaway time. Stay tuned.

Artful Friday - The Olympics

I haven't mentioned it on my blog, but the Olympics are coming in just about a week. Yes, Vancouver is hosting the 2010 Olympics.

The whole town is changing, and you can see the Olympics signs everywhere. So I decide to see my students perspective.

Question of the day: What are you most looking forward to with the Olympics here?

The most common answer was "I want to see ice skating". "One student said "I like finger skating". ha ha

We talked about what sports take place where (ex: snowboarding in the mountains), we talked about Vancouver as a map and where Stanly Park was located, and the city.

Materials used: markers and oil pastels.



I love it when the students use their whole body to get into their art, I also enjoy it when they sing while working.



The student also liked to include the Olympic Mascots: Miga, Quatchi and Sumi. The mascots were created by Meomi Designs, a very talented Vancouver based artist. You might know her form the Octonauts.



Have a great weekend.

Hope for Haiti doll

If you remember this post, I had donated a doll to Craft Hope Etsy shop. She sold out in just a few minutes of being listed. She was a custom order for pink hair and blue eyes, my very first pink haired girl. I hope she finds her way to her new best friend and is loved.


I other news , i am one person away from 100 followers, Yay! When I hit 100, I will have a giveaway.

Thanks for all those who follow.

Found Talent

I was looking through my blog roll and saw this cute mouse. I had to click ans read more. That blog took me to the talent behind the mouse.

Meet Myko and vistist her lovely shop


Perhaps you have stumbled upon this cuteness before, for me, it was a first. I fell right in love.

Quick hope on over and join in her Giveaway.

Because sometimes you just do it

On my last post, I had mentioned that I am not much of a fan of Valentines Day, this is true.

However, I do have kids, so celebrate, we must. I mean, I know there is no Santa but I don't tell the kids that. he he

SO here are some ideas I am looking at:


Pretty heart garland I found over at Made by Rae. I always have felt pieces around, so this will be easy for me. I can also pick my own pallet. yay.



Stopping over at Bakerella for some baking ideas is always a must.

I am such a fan of Red Velvet. Hmmmmm




If you don't bake or don't have the time, she has a quick simple answer for that.

Milk anyone?

Love for Boys

It's the "Love" month. I have to say, I am not a fan of the big V-day. To be honest, pink and red together, make me feel sick to my stomach. Throw in some chocolate brown and cream and we have a winner.


I am a fan of ...BOYS!!! I love boys and all the treasures they bring. It looks like Rae from Made by Rae and Dana of Made do too.

It's about time someone celebrated boys!!!! Horrrrayyyy.

Check out Made by Rae and MADE this month. If you have been looking for boy tutorials, as I always am, look here and here.

There just isn't enough handmade love for boys, but this is a good start.
