Setting Fire to Paper

Image
So things have been a tad easier since now I am home with my little one.  Between the feeding, the diaper changing and the cranky sessions I have atually had the time to write and be creative!  I made old paper the other day, to which I haven't in more times that I cannot remember.  Many people wanted to know how, so here are the steps. : Step 1---First, get tea.  You obviously can get this tea at your local supermarket.  I use this brand because it's a darker tea.      Step 2---put water in something a piece of paper would fit in to and place a tea bag into the water as shown.  I've used other bowls, but this one works out the best with it being flat on the bottom.  Maybe a small casserole dish would work.  Keep the tea back in there while you are making the paper.  Step 3---Crumple it into a ball.  Step 4 ---Gently uncrumple the paper and let it soak in there for a few minutes.  Step 5 ---Gently unfold the paper and place it flat on the

My latest silhouette creation. I'm being a little crafty today, to which I haven't been in a long time.   I miss it so.   Of course our "study" is a hot mess and I discovered that I don't have a cord thingey for the computer in there so I can't see my monitor, meaning that I cannot use my silhouette machine. :(  I was hoping I could today, but oh well Instead I have been making envelopes out of newspaper, which is fun and out of wrapping paper.   I'll take a picture of those later. I'm back in the game, folks. :)

It has been a bit since I have had the ability to be creative.  These past few months have been horrid.  Between Chris's change in hours at work, me working so much and not getting the proper rest for my feet... things have been crazy with The Wulff Pack. I have been having some feet issues that has recently brought me to a leave of absence from work .  i need it.  my feet and my soul. I cant believe its Thanksgiving is this week!    And then before you know it...  whoosh.  There goes Christmas, New Years and my 32nd Birthday. Soo... I've been crafty today!  i'm excited because I haven't been THIS crafty in a long time.  Maybe its because     i'm a little more rested than usual.  i mean, granted, my feet hurt like hell, but the rest of me is fine. i hurt from my thighs to my tippy toes. So long as i am not walking we're okay! Anyhow, so all weekend ive been crafty.  I made the orange envelope thingey first. Just found  the guy to the right off of the love

    I guess I can use rain as an excuse, but I have seen a lot of people I communicate with make their own stationary and envelopes.   I decided to try and have my way at it too.        If anyone wants to use them, I have a word file so you can print it out for yourself.  Just tell me.     Jamie   "Le cœur a ses raisons que la raison ne connaît point."
