The Ice Age Cometh

Actually, it doesn't cometh, it's here. Except minus all the cool stuff like wooly mammoths and saber-toothed tigers.

On my walk the other day it was LITERALLY 30 squillion degrees below zero. Celsius. Times 4.

It's so cold Lady Gaga had to wear more than a strip of bacon.

It's so cold, the Austin police told a robber to freeze - and he DID.

It's so cold, I baked a cake and it frosted itself!

It's so cold our local flasher is just describing himself!

Really. It's cold. I miss summer. If Texas isn't a warm enough place to spend the winter anymore, I guess I'll have to move to Florida.

Luckily, all my stamps are inside, so that's where I'll be if you need me!

I went to Sam Moon with my stampy friend Dana before Leadership and I found the perfect purse for the trip - a teeny purse with customizable sides. And I customized it!

I used the Newsprint DSP for both sides, and then just added a Bashful Blue panel, stamped with Artistic Etchings, French Foliage and Easter Blossoms in Basic Black and Soft Suede. I glittered the flowers with Dazzling Diamonds glitter, and added a rhinestone to the Eiffel tower.
That newsprint looks so sassy on that black purse. Of course, there's a chance I'll have to burn all my DSP just to keep warm.

Some cool stuff coming up if you have some Christmas money to spend! First the Filled With Love promotion, where you get free buttons when you buy the Filled with Love stamp set and Love Patterns DSP.This one runs through January 24th, and I'm offering free shipping because I love you! :) Email me for deets!

Then January 25th, we kick off Sale-a-Bration - with a free stamp set for every $50 spent!

I'm off now to find a wooly mammoth...

  4. LOL 40 degrees in Texas or what? Come visit me in New England where we've had 3 major snow storms in ONE WEEK! Texas is not cold!

    But seriously - I love your bag - and I was wondering what to do with that DSP!

  6. Haha, I hear you on the stupid stupid cold stupid weather!

    Aw, I wish we had a Sam Moon over here--I need that purse (and some other random cheap jewelry, of course, because you can't walk out of there with just one thing, right?). It is just too cute!

  7. Oh my gosh, I LOVED reading your comments about the cold - I was literally laughing out loud all by myself here in the computer room! It was in the high 70s here in sunny So Cal this week (just sayin', in case you wanted to move, or sumpin'). That purse is too cool. I'm off to see if I can find something similar online. TFS!
