Blogging on the Brain

I know I've been quiet here recently. It's because I've been working on some new blogs. I'm totally bitten by the writing bug. Everything I do, I think, "Hmmm, that might make a good blog post." I need to start carrying around a notebook to jot down all my ideas.

I'd love it if you visit (and subscribe!) my other blogs. Each one is a bit more specialized, as opposed this one, which is kind of a mish-mash. I'd love to hear your feedback. What you'd like to see on each blog. Suggestions of topics, etc.

To make life easier, here are the links:

  • Cup of Creativi-Tea: I'm sharing all things creative, whethere it's cooking, sewing, or kid crafts. Maybe some bellydancing (that's creative!). I'm also adding lots of tutorials.
  • I'm Not the Nanny: Parenting stories, with some musings about raising biracial kids in a racially conscious world
  • Laugh in Bed: Intimacy and relationships. Maybe some sex.

I'll still post here occassionally until I get the other ones established! Thanks for reading!

Swimming with the fishes


I dusted off my Gocco Printer and here's what I got. This mermaid has been inside my head for a week now. The kind of idea that keeps me up at night unless I sketch it out or make it. So after various attempts at lining up my two screens, voila! I was up until 3 am printing it. I even dipped my toes into using Photoshop. I hand drew the figure and use the Stamp option to smooth out my edges. I'm pretty happy with the outcome. It's going to be a t-shirt for Sophia. I made the screens generic on purpose so I could have more flexibility on how I can use them. I can customize them further with embroidery like I'm doing here. Sophia's already asking me if it's done yet.


So now I have to decide what color her seashells should be. Any suggestions?
