Mooning Over...

I don't know if it is awe of the Infinite, or the nut brown-porter-stout triple crown I drank at Hamilton's tonight (sorry Gabe, for how much we talk about your cats when I'm drinking...or sober ...) but the clear December sky tonight is just SOOOO pretty. I came home and saw this week's Alec Thibodeau print on Tiny Showcase, and want to share it with everyone who still gets butterflies when the sky is cold and clear and the air smells like artificial fire...

"Goes to Show You What A Moon Can Do 2009 Lunar Calendar" by Alec Thibodeau. Go get one of the limited prints at Tiny Showcase if you can, but they're going fast...

Project Runway: X-mas Tree Challenge

This Christmas I've vowed to make my own cards and decorations. Thanks to all who voted in the How Should I Decorate My Christmas Tree? poll. "Bands & Songs" tied "Things That Live in Trees" as the top two themes, so we flipped a coin and "Bands" won. Then I said: let's do tree things instead. Andrew and I slaved over Target balls and origami paper for like, 2 hours. Here is a sampling of the winning tree theme incarnate:

   Cat tree-topper, Nest, & Doves Ball

   Butterfly & Green Mamba

  Owl & The Artists
