Shout Out

I just ordered 2 of these great business card holders from KreativeKarryAlls.etsy.com
They're made of fabric and ship flat...and the wire that has been sewn inside the edges enables you to fold it (she supplies a little template) into your business card holder.

She has a ton of great fabric choices as well... and only $6! SCORE.

Narwhals are the coolest

I've been fascinated with Narwhals for years now ever since i saw a national geographic special on them. I couldn't believe such a creature existed. These "sea unicorns" are so bizarre and beautiful I had to create one of my own.

Check out the special:

More About Narwhals-
via wikipedia
"Narwhals are a medium-sized toothed whale that lives year-round in the Arctic. the narwhal males are distinguished by a characteristic long, straight, helical tusk extending from their upper left jaw.

Narwhal have been harvested for thousands of years by Inuit people in Northern Canada and Greenland for meat and ivory and a regulated subsistence hunt continues to this day. While populations appear stable, the narwhal has been deemed particularly vulnerable to climate change due to a narrow geographical range and specialized diet."

I also went ahead and searched etsy just out of curiousity to see how many other artists out there faved these whimsical creatures... and to my surprise there were tons! (see below)

Mooshy Gooshies - for baby

I just started this new project... Inspired by my puppy love silhouettes, fun colors, and baby onsies.

Each puppy silhouette is hand cut and stitched to the 100% cotton onsies with mucho love. ;) The silhouettes are also fused to the cotton onsie for extra sturdiness.

I've washed these in cold and tumble dried in my dryer.... and they're holding up and there is no color bleeding whatsoever. As with most 100% cotton items there will be 10%-20% shrinking.

Available at my etsy store: mooshygooshies.etsy.com
sizes 3-6mo, 6-9 mo and 9-12 mo

Shopping on Etsy

My husband bought me a couple of things on Etsy from my favorites list this valentines. He says the "favorites" is a husbands fool proof guide to getting gifts. ;)
Today the last of the gifts arrived and I had to pair the two pups. Tux toy has a little pocket mouth i can stick my ipod in or hide stuff ...or... hold a heart. ;)

This all lead me to post about all my etsy finds and buys... some great stuff I'm proud to show off.
