I promise you, this won't be the only post about these things. I have only just begun really making them, and would have been done earlier if I had paper that I loved for them. I finally found some that I fell in LOVE with, and began them last night while watching this bugged out movie called "Devil". (Seriously, it was scary in a not-too-gory-sort-of-Hitchcock way) So, I will keep making half a dozen of these puppies per night (at home, when I'm not working on the banner). I have thought of the possiblity of getting a few more kinds of ribbon just to mix it up, and so that they all don't start to look alike. I think it would look much nicer with an assortment of colors and designs. Today I will order some die cuts from eBay to decorate the tops of the boxes, maybe some diaper pins or baby bottles. I can't WAIT for the day when I get my own Silhouette or Cricut... I almost hussled my way into the deal on QVC some weeks ago, but didn't jump on that boat. I am kind of kicking myself... all that cutting hurts the hands!
This week I will work on buying the rest of the stuff for the party and take care of my Dad w hile my Mom is out of town; today I'll put some food in his fridge and cook him something to stick to the ribs. I will also enjoy some real down time, as this week has been extra extra. I get home and just collapse (after cooking dinner, of course) and just want to cry when the alarm clock goes off at 5:15 am. I need a vacation. Won't go into details, but it's time I put in for my 10 or 12 days off from the salt mine.
Here's another pic of the boxes...
That's all for today.
