Could you withstand this face demanding “NUGGLE ME!” ?

I can’t, so we’re taking a sick day.

Did You Create With Me?

CWM

The Project Gallery for June (using my ruffled camera strap tutorial) is now up over at UCreate.

Go here to take a look!

I made a new one, too. I was going to say something like “See if you can tell which one it is!” but then I remembered that they’re labeled. If you can’t tell which one’s mine, you probably can’t read this blog either. Ha!

****Don’t forget to enter the Say It On The Wall giveaway here!****

Giveaway: Say It On The Wall

Do you like vinyl?

I’ve been known to use it a time or two myself…

(Tangent: Those frames are still empty. Man I suck.)

Laura from Say It On The Wall is offering one lucky Crap I’ve Made reader a $30 gift certificate!

She’s got some cute stuff! My personal favorites are the embellishments. My friend Casey has been trying to convince me to put some red on my piano ever since I painted it. I think several of these would look awesome!

And we’ve joked about getting my mom one of these for years!

Friends Welcome Relatives by Appointment

Not *quite* sure how my grandma (who lives just down the street) would feel about that, though.

And I have this saying above the door to my own laundry room:

Wowzers.

1047 entries for the GO! Cutter so far.

You guys are insane!!!

If you’re not already one of the 1047, go here to enter.

I spent the morning at the school watching end of year plays, so the project using my GO! Tumbler die is going to have to wait a little bit longer.

Exhibit A:

Exhibit B:

In the mean time, here’s what I did with this thing (what in the heck is it anyway?) that I bought on my Smelly Barn Adventure™.

And you can see that I actually potted the plants in something else, so I can lift them out and use it for drinks.  You know, for the hypothetical awesome summer BBQ we’re having.

BIGGEST GIVEAWAY EVER!!!

(at least ‘round these parts)

So, remember this sweet little quilt I made?

Remember how I said the nice folks at AccuQuilt sent me a GO! Cutter to try out? Were you a *little* jealous?

Get over it, because now is your chance to win one of your very own! That’s right…a retail value of over $500!

Here’s what you can win, courtesy of AccuQuilt:

1 GO! Cutter (includes die that cuts 2.5” and 4.5” squares as well as 2” finished size triangles)

GO!

1 2.5” strip cutter (this sucker is AWESOME for cutting your binding strips)

2 other GO! Cutter dies of your choice

How do you enter?

I’m keeping it simple! Head on over to the AccuQuilt site and take a look at the dies (located here). Decide which 2 you’d pick. Come back to this post and leave one comment for each. For example, you’d comment once saying GO! Critters and then once more saying GO! Drunkard’s Path. That’s 2 entries per person.

Tell everyone you know! If they win, you can borrow it….right?

Giveaway will close Friday night at midnight MST.

In the mean time, stay tuned this week for a project courtesy of my GO! Tumbler die. And, it’s not a quilt!

FTC Disclosure. AccuQuilt provided me with a free GO! Cutter and dies. I received no monetary compensation. They are providing the GO! Cutter and dies to the winner of this giveaway.

Piano Recital

If you’re not related to me, feel free to ignore this one…

Macy and Keller had a piano recital last night.

DSC_0576

It was Keller’s first one.  He’s brand new to piano lessons.  In fact, his music doesn’t even have lines yet.  ;)

Macy’s been taking for just over 2 years now, so she’s an old pro.  Just ask her.  She doesn’t even get nervous anymore.

(You can hear Campbell humming along whilst she’s playing…kills me!)

Happy Father’s Day

Other than some embarrassing shots of him doing yoga (blackmail purposes), this is literally the ONLY picture I have of BC this year.
But, it’s a good one to show how much the kids adore him.
He’s a good one, too.
