Pure FUN is not being had in our household right now.
Oh OK Lola is having fun. Hello? That's a blessing!
Is it too much to ask for some actual spring weather OTHER than wind and rain? We went from 50 degrees to 95 and humid as a swamp.
The soup man says: NO BREAKS FOR YOU!
My favorite thing today was hearing a Channel 9 newscaster call today "sultry". Uhm...NO, chick!!! Sultry is Eartha Kitt's singing or perhaps Kim Catrall in SItC.
Today's weather was like walking through a bowl of hot soup WITH sidewalk doggie poop thrown in for good measure.
Anyway I must distract myself from all this.
I have gotten positive and decided to spread the vibes.

(insert echo effect here).
That's a link to my facebook page- perhaps you want to "friend" me? If not it's ok! You can leave a comment here and I will make you a card too! I love this project!!! WOO HOO!

| Jenny's Card MATERIALS: DCWV MOd Retro (new FAVE!), Fiskars Star Squeeze punch, Studio G alpha stamp set, Pigma Micron 05 pen in yellow and brown, Mister Huey sunshine |
Basically I will make a post card for every friend I have in facebook and try to MAIL the the card. The addresses will NOT be used for anything else. I do not expect return mail but I do hope the happiness is paid forward.
I started small with just my bestest crafty friends and my family. I will give myself till the end of 2011 to finish this. Whatever cards don't get sent will get put in a gallery space (if one will have me)
The point is I need to expand my art horizons, spread the gospel of positivity and GET RID OF MY PAPER STASH
(So I can buy more.)
This made me laugh and feel unbelievably PROUD today- Bronx is in da HOUUUSE!
REPRESEEEENT!

| I'm on Pinterest. I want to pin this poster as I LOVE IT. It's from Gothamist I blithely moved on without pinning and now I can't find it! HEEELP! |
I leave you with THIS:

I love this concept of spreading sunshine with your beautiful works of art (a/k/a postcards). If I weren't using all my extra scraps and energy to make cards for Operation Write Home, I would participate myself. Meanwhile, I would love to friend you on FB if I can find you. I love your upbeat personality and your artwork.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Please send some rain to South Florida. We're dangerously dry and Mother Nature hasn't figured out that it's hurricane season and time for some of the wet stuff!
