Just for fun. Were that camping was this easy! I wonder what kind of gas mileage Goofy gets in that thing.

In Favor
I’m on favors for the upcoming wedding. We are going to go with small round tins that are decorated with pretty scrapbooking paper. To the right is a picture of the tins without anything on them. I will stick ribbon on the sides that says true love. Ahhhh.
Anyone know where to get tiny vanilla mints in bulk?

Scrapbooking Rub on Transfer Ideas Video
Making summer memories reminds me that I need to do something with all of those pictures. It’s time to do some scrapbooking. I went on YouTube looking for scrapbooking videos. This one is like a little sample and it provides a password for those wanting more.
I have always enjoyed rub-on transfers. I think they are pretty cool. I haven’t used them or ink applicated in this way before though.
Making Muffins
So, I’m hanging out at my parent’s house, kinda bored. I thought about my to do list, and the first thing on my list is blogging. Well, I haven’t crafted anything, but I did do a bit of baking this morning.
I made boxed blueberry muffins. You would think that making muffins from a box is the easiest thing in the world. It is. But I still made a mess. I spilled a little blueberry juice from the can on the counter and stained it because I didn’t clean it up right away. I also dropped an egg. I tried to catch it with my hand…and then my leg. I ended up getting egg on the cupboard, both hands, and the floor. Egg on your pants is a little like egg on your face. Luckily, I kept an eye on the muffins and I didn’t burn them. They are golden on the top and soft in the middle. Mmmm!!
I made scrambled eggs and toast with jam to go with the muffins. Not much to do, but an accomplishment for me. Cheers!

Back to Blogging and Other Summer Adventures
School is out, and summer is here again. I always have these big plans for summer–hoping to accomplish at least 10% of what I set out to do. What should I do this summer? Here are some of my ideas:
- Return to blogging three times a week.
- Finish my brother’s wedding quilt.
- Pick fresh fruit.
- Design and create 50 favors for my brother’s wedding.
- Go camping.
- Go to my brother’s wedding.
- Study for a big Praxis test.
- Finish and send out current swap-bot swaps.
- Organize my crafting supplies.
That’s all for now. I know some of these items aren’t related to my blog. I hope you didn’t mind reading about them. I’ll be going camping sometime this summer, but if I plan ahead, I can have my blog continue to post new articles, even when I’m gone.
Smiles!

Camping
This is what I dream of at night. Well, actually I’m dreaming of books and little kids, but as soon as school is over, I will dream of this…
The above is listed here on Etsy. It is by Shellieartist.
| a print of an original fabric on wood piece the artist made. The print is very vibrant and rich just like the original. The artist misses the mountians so – this was made as a little reminder of my mountain living days.
The image comes printed on an 8.5″ x 11″ piece of Heavyweight Epson Matte Paper. The actual image size is 7.5″ x 7.3″ with a white boarder for framing. This image has been printed with archival fade resistant inks on an Epson Stylus R1800 photo printer. All prints come shipped in a protective sleeve and a rigid non-bend photo mailer. They are signed with title and signature on the front! If there is another image you see and would like a print feel free to convo the artist and they will see what they can do! |
