Amigurumi :)





I started crocheting when I was about 15 or 16. Possibly the same time when I started scrapbooking...but I preferred scrapbooking more until now. Working at Cox I couldn't really spread out ALL my necessities for scrapbooking to work on pages and so forth, so I started back on crochet.  I was able to sit at my desk with my yarn and just crochet to my heart's content.  I started doing flowers because I would be able to incorporate flowers to my scrapbook pages.  And now I'm working on a shrug and headwarmers for some friends. But then I found amigurumi. Japanese crocheted dolls :)

I found this pattern at jennyandteddy and since she had a picture by picture play, I figured why not try it.  And I finished it.  I need to work on the joining of the legs and body and assembling the pieces, but all in all, I am proud of my finished piece.  Not bad for a newbie amigurumi :)

Thank you to Kathy Orta @ Paper Phenomenon

I was having scrapbooking withdrawals. Then I saw Kathy's youtube video on an envelope mini album. What can I say? I fell in L-O-V-E! Now I know what to do with my paper stacks! Paper stacks: Ciao Bella & Valentine Inspiration: Kathy Orta @ Paper Phenomenon

I'm starting her off young :)

So this morning we woke up @ 6:30 AM and go ready. Got out the Farmer's Market @ 7 and started to set up the table.  The traffic is kinda slow. Hopefully in two weeks I'll have more cards done and more people will be interested.  A lot of people do stop by my table and look...mainly @ the money rose & my crane inside the ornament. There was an old man that was interested in my candy bouquets, but he didn't know if he wanted all chocolate or if he wanted the ones with skittles too. Anyhow, we're chillin @ Darren's house and I went into the kitchen to put the plate up and you will never guess what I saw when I came back into the living room... Apparently she got into my scrapbooking supplies, found my Martha Stewart glitter & stamp...and well as you can see the picture what my little diva was attempting to pull off. Luckily for me that's a brand new bottle of glitter and so no mess was made. Well off to look for more ideas.
