I don't want to post all the pics again. Just follow the link.
Video of Aesop (my kitten-cat) playing with her Mariner's Revenge cat toy. She has destroyed him, by the way. She's so flipping precious when she plays.

I received another bookmark in the mail today. This one is from New Hampshire and it's a penguin with a little quote that says, "It's practically impossible to look at a penguin and feel angry"
Here are the three I've received. My penguin, my sweets and my giraffe/birds. Yay! I love them all!
I had some time this afternoon and worked on my Altoid tin a little. I'm pretty satisfied with how it's coming along so far. I'm working off the premise that my partner loves fairies. It's going to be whimsical and somehow love-y too. Lots of pink as you can tell!!
Inside the tin. I made little glitter letters that say, "believe". That is what's running diagonal. Those two magnets are a purple beaded heart and a red LOVE. The bottom of the tin has paper and some die cuts and fabric stuff. There's a ton more to go in the tin.
The outside. It's a Pan's Labyrinth-esque tree. It says, "believe in fairies" and there is a bunch of beaded stuff, grass, a purple flower/balloon, button fruits on the tree, etc etc. There's ribbon along the edge. I'm pretty proud that I thought to cut the ribbon shorter in height so that the tin will still close with ease. I'm going to draw a fairy of some sort on the tin somewhere.
Also! I received two bookmarks so far! One has a giraffe and birds (love both of those) and the other has all sweets with a pastel plaid background. The one on the bottom is a Blackberry inspired Dilbert comic from quite awhile ago that I made with packing tape and lots of love!
My first bookmark is a sugary girly themed one! It's really cute!
I got my undies back from my partner. She chose pandas and zombies. Someone pointed out that I had a "cute" and a "scary" theme. The zombies were kind of adorable. The butt of the one pair say, "BRAINS!" and the panda set (we sent out two tops and two bottoms, new of course) had the WWF panda model. On the butt it says, "save the pandas!"
So cute.
