Wow. Wooow. Wow. Lots to do not enough time to do it. Glad to know all those years of exams and not sleeping were going to be used so well so soon.
I have been going nonstop lately and even though it's getting close I still feel like I don't have enough hours in a day. Perhaps we shold just add an extra day or so ( although then i'd just be working again so let's give that thought up.
Anyway, most recent gift made: yarn accessory collector.

December 21st
Almost here, Christmas is!
Time sure flies when you're working full time. Not that I dislike my job; in fact I love it. I'm just saying that working retail during the holidays is indicative of the fact that I should have started gifts last January.
My boyfriend and I have decided on starting a new tradition of "budget holidays". This is a holiday five days after the holiday itself that is cheaper since all of the stuff gets cheaper and is suddenly easier to reach without hoards of people trying to also reach things.
My favorite part of Christmas is being ridiculous with my homemade stuff... for example, I made an ikea instruct able. .. for something that I designed and made.

Holy, has Christmas ever sneaked up on me this year. I feel entirely unprepared, and like I'm running around trying to get everything I need and making things just isn't going well. It took me six weeks to finish half a gift... maybe I should spend more time making the other half at one time.
In the meantime, some cards I've made recently:
Our friendly snowpeople need their liquor too.
These are both shots I took about a month, maybe a month and a half ago when I went on a hike. I would like to point out that I also stole some birchbark off of it. It's a fallen tree so it's not being hurt much, and I wanted to try the birchbark in the summer for a fire.
I think that these guys need to be edited, they were shot without a polarizer filter and you can tell. Usually I don't edit my shots that are supposed to be properly composed, but usually I use the right tools in the first place. I just didn't here.
Well, happy december preparation.

And This one I stole off of Pinterest to make for my boyfriend. It includes masking and embossing.
This present is for my mom's car-- it's a garbage bag that's kinda cute. I made it.
