Over a week since I blogged? Ooops...
So this will be a catch up post...
Some great links to share and something new in the shop...so let's get going!
First (and I am excited about this!), see the Junk Party button over there to the left?
->->->->->->->->
This one:
I was reading my blog list yesterday and came across this on TidyMom's site. Yet another cute and sassy blogger to follow! Kennesha over at Me & My House is hosting a JUNK PARTY on June 18th.
I wish I had thought of this, but since I did not, I will most definitely be
participating ! Being the junk lover, collector and rescuer that I am, I'm always game for taking a few pics and sharing...If you're interested, go visit Me & My House for all of the details.
And another new link....
My friend Kathy of Catnip Cottage Chronicles has started another blog, completely dedicated to ephemera: Vintage Catnip (isn't that a cute name?) .
FREE (yes, FREE!) vintage ephemera!
Yours for the taking with a right click and an occasional "thank you". She just started, but if you like vintage ephemera, this is a great visit! And if I know Kathy, it will only get better, so make sure you add yourself to her "follow" list....
And last but not least, I added a little something to the shop this morning...
Sometimes you start working with one thing in mind, and something completely different comes out...
Going into the studio last night, I was determined to make some brighter, less pastel tags...
And you can see where THAT got me! I have been thinking I need to branch out a bit, reach out to the peeps who are more fond of deep rich color rather than my usual fluffy cotton candy mix...
Believe it or not I do like the darker colors...
But these personalized monogram tags just sort of morphed on their own, and I like them, so I will say Uncle and bend to the iron-fisted will of my girly subconscious...
She's a tough chick, that's for sure!Hope Everyone has a Wonderful Weekend- we're off to finally see Night at the Museum- can't wait!
Until Next Time,

Love the new tags...I think everyone likes to have personalized things! I had to laugh because I feel the same way about the color things, lol. I try and have a mix of colors and offer some things in the non-pastel category, but the pastels win out often! What to do...they are just so PRETTY!
Don't you just love Catnip Kathy and her lovely stuff...and now a new blog--with ephemera! Be still my heart!
Smiles, Karen
I have always loved dark grungy Prims and neutral colors, but lately I am turning to these gorgeous cottagey hues! It's partly because of your wonderful creations! I'm still Prim though! LoL!
Heading over to check out the Junk Sale, too! Right up my alley!
Thanks!!

Steph, You must already know I just LURV your new brighter colors ;-), and wow, what a complete surprise to see that you gave a shoutout to my new blog - you are ever a doll!
I really love those monogram tags - you've outdone yourself by expanding your vision. They are delicate and colorful and delightful!
Hi, Steph! I love the monogrammed tags! They're so cute and adorable! I love their soft country colors. And the marled yarn, too! :-)

Darling new tags Steph!!
