the Easter pretties

 super cute chicks and fluffy, little bunnies

toys and chocolate as far as you can see

family time and a hunt for colorful eggs .. 

who doesn't LOVE Easter!?!?!?

fine fine fine!

I KNOW the answer

"billions of people all over the world who aren't Christian"

fine !

I guess all that matters today is we do !!

I totally adore these shiny, happy bunnies !! 

they're too cute for words

&
 I waited until they were on "Easter's Over" clearance :)
I might adore 75% off even more than shiny, happy bunnies.

I had planned on 'cropping' this picture to be square around the bunnies;
but Senor Owl's photo bomb made me laugh...so I kept him. :)

 and of course .. I made Easter Subway art ..

our house .. finished.

I realized today, that I nicknamed my project wrong

The wordart I made didn't list our houses - it listed our streets

so, instead of 'our house' .. I guess technically it should be our street

but .. a catchy song doesn't exist that's titled - 'our street' ...

'our street' didn't blare through the half-blown speakers of my mom's green pinto

so ... pfft .. my mistake and the title OUR HOUSE stays ! :)

onto the (very simple) craft ..

• awesome husband goes out in the cold & paints frame
• cut/fit fabric to fit - plus cardboard; if your $1 thriftstore frame has no glass or back :P
• modpodge fabric onto cardboard
• secure backsides
• modpodge word art - not sure why I did this IN the frame .. I don't suggest.
• smooth paper onto the fabric, removing bubbles
• embellish with random decorations/buttons/scrapbooking stuff
• pace through the living room wait patiently for it to dry
• done

This poor fabric-podged frame may or may not have sat in a pile for over a month; because the original project for the fabric canvas was re-assigned to another frame.

MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE ...

more word art from me to ewe

Every girl should believe that the definition of beautiful, is them being themselves.

These were simple and I made them in five seconds @ picnik.com

you can make your own and share .. or print mine; either way works ! <3

My Star Wars subway art

In between all the crafts, nails, fashion, and culinary goodies, I have a not-so-secret Pinterest obsession with subway art. I've always wanted to create my own for holidays and family members, etc. But, I could never conquer the feat in Paintshop.

Then tonight, I stumbled upon this great tutorial for making your own subway art using Picnik - a free online photo editor.

I'd never used this picnik before, so I decided to visit the link and see what it was all about. I need simple ... so I was reluctant to believe it would be as easy as the website said.

LoL - I was delightfully proven wrong; it's super-duper easy-peasy.

I also found out that all the features on Picnik are free until April 19, 2012.
Done.
I had to make one

When deciding on what theme to go with, the first thing that popped into my brain was Star Wars .. LOL - don't judge me .. I blame G. :)

so here it is - it's a little chaotic, but so am I :)
it's also a little more cluttered than the ones I've seen .. but it's 100% mine & I like it.

click the link below the picture for the full size version of the picture ..
also you can  follow the picnik link and make your own ..
I like sharing - so feel free to come back and share with us !!
... may the force be with you :)
