It's A Girl Thing.

HIYA!!  How's it goin', eh??

Things are winding down 'round here...

Summer break is officially over.  Done.

On Monday, the beasties head back to the old school house!

Although I'm not particularly relishing the great comeback of alarm clocks and homework, I do have to admit to a certain amount of joy at the thought of a brand new school year.

Now, said 'joy' isn't for myself.  Oh, no!! 

It's for 'Little Sister'.

She's a stone-cold, school-lovin', social-butterfly. 

She's ecstatic at the thought of headin' back to school!  New shoes.  Pencils, paper, folders---FRIENDS.

She's definitely my favorite awesome nerd :-) 

Sooo, here's a fun SMASH* page homage to GEEK-OCITY!!

How fun are splatts??  I've really been digging color splatts, lately.  These were created with my Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst spray in Wild Honeysuckle Coral and the Old Hairy dauber top.  Seriously, Old Hairy rocks my world!!

I'm also really lovin' the Spectacle stamp set from Sweet Stamp Shop!  The fab glasses and the sentiment came from that quirky little set :-)

And here's a little close-up of the Sushi Doll digi I've colored up.  Her name is 'Geeky' and you can find her, and tons of other seriously cute Sushi's HERE.  LOVE me some Sushi!!

And that, my friends, is that.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!!  I'll catch you on the flip side ;-)

xx,



Whooooo Loves Summer???

Hiya, Folks!!

 

How goes your summer??

 

All's smoooooth sailing around these parts.

 

Well, mostly.

 

My baby girl is a big lover of school, and she's missing it terribly!  She misses the work.  She misses the structure.  She misses her friends.

 

Sooooo, to help bust up some of that boredom, I whipped her up a little distraction... 

 

 

 

This cute little dolly/dollhouse combo is the perfect cure for a bit of my girl's summertime blues! 

 

I love this cute little kraft monogram tag!!

 

How cool are the ABC's on the roofline??  Maybe a little subliminal ABC action is just what the doctor ordered.

 

Her sweet new friend is the perfect size to peek out at her from inside her new house.

 

And finally, here's a shot of the dolly herself :-)  I've used Sushi Owl Mug from the Sushi Dolls digi shop and my Ragdoll tutorial to whip her up in a jiffy!

 

 

Here's hopin' this little distraction does it's job and gives my girl a smile.

 

If you want to hear me talk a bit more about the construction of the house and get a sneaky peek Paige's reaction to her sweet new friend, you can check it out HERE.

 

Okee-doke, that's it for me!  Thanks for stopping by today and I'll see ya next time!!
