2009 is coming soon!!!

1286.jpg2169.jpgYes. Just today it came to my mind. Soon! Really soon now!
And because I did not feel like making books, I played with the idea to make a calendar. But there are so many possibilities, it’s crazy. What size? What should be on it? Only dates? Weekdays too? Should there be space for notes? To hang on a wall or something to put into a handbag. Or on the table. I don’t have a clue …
Any input? What form of calendars do you use? If  any …

Individualism

I really prefer the creative part of my work. The painting and drawing.
And would not mind having a little elf doing the hard and boring work …

Update: Not a single elf found. I had to do it by myself again.

Yes, I am a Treehugger

Even if I try to deny it, my journals tell the truth …

Aqua

Aqua is this weeks challenge theme. 11100.jpg
I made a Seahorse journal. I love the mix of green and  blue - also called turquoise … Strange that it’s the same word in english and french. In german the color is called türkis. Turkey (the country) is called Türkei. There must be a connection somehow, I  just did not find it so far …

See Amandas blog for more info and all the other entries.

My Secret Santa present arrived!

My European Streetteam on Etsy is playing Secret Santa again this year. Mitsy did send out a questionaire and mixed us with a secret partner so - I did not know who would make my present - as the receiver of mine does not know yet. Because … well, I did not made it. So far. But I’m working on it, promise!

2165.jpgAnyway.. I know what you want. You want to see what I got, right? Hehehe… okay, here it is. It’s an amazing YETI MOUSE!!! Yeah! When I opened the package this morning and saw that it came from Anna, I already knew that I  would be very happy with my present. But she really exceeded all my expectations. A Yeti!!!1279.jpg

See how well he fits into the Mouse Gang I already collected? Hehehee…. thank’s a lot Anna! I only hope you get a santa present that makes you as happy as yours did! :)

Check out The House of Mouse to see all the gorgeous mice Anna has to offer! They make wonderful christmas presents! *hint*
