bebop du bop bebop du bop...ta da......and for really girls...we have some serious swing going at the Bad Girly Club....ummmmm....hold on...I gotta get my Diet Coke...LOL....uh oh...you know what that means.....do you girls have your cuppa too??? OK....yayayyyyyyy!!!!!
Not to distract you or anything....but if you keep reading this post..you will find out how to win this BLOG CANDY!!!!........
ahhhhhh....the beauty of a gorgeous Sunday afternoon.....I know I am getting off track....it's the Diet Coke....oK....if you have no idea what the heck I'm talking about then you are new here....it's ok...I'm harmless...it's just that my drink of choice makes me yakity yak yak a lot...bless my girls who tolerate me....*tee hee*...so...looky what Peter found in our backyard last night....I have to share the beauty of one of my favorite things...Gods gift to us...nature.....
What I couldn't believe is that this momma bird decided to build this nest in the center of sago palm tree, especially since we have probably about 70 trees in our yard and many more behind us on a natural hill....check it out....I know you cant see the nest in the center, but I wanted to give you an idea....
Here you see them a little bit better....there are three little precious ones...every time I come out the back door the momma flies away and sometimes she starts squaking at me...LOL...she has no idea that I am harmless...*wink wink*
So...here I am outside and I start to survey my yard and OH MY....it seriously needs my attention...I love to garden and low and behold it has been a while since I have enjoyed digging my hands in the soil....must make a date with my garden soon *mental note*...but while I was out here shooting I took a pic of a couple of my favorite angels...I am a huge collector of angels...especially antique ones...take a look at this little sweetie who used to be in my house years ago until one of his wings broke off...well...not one to toss a sweet cherub, I put him in the garden about 12 years ago and he has taken on quite the gorgeous patina...
And I love this bench and this cute little miniature angel fountain...
and wait...now that I am sharing angels...lol...I have to share just two of my inside guardians...
by the way...that IS glitter on this ones wings...and SWEAR I didn't do it...it really came like that...probably why its my favorite!!! *tee hee*
OMG...and I have to share with you one of newest antique additions to my home....I searched for years for just the right pair of columns and finally found them in one of favorite antique shops ....lookie...
sooo pretty....they are about 10 feet in height and they flank my fireplace in my living room...I am in love with them!!! They are 18th century...can ya tell????

I would have to say the classes. I am an avid gardener tho and I enjoyed seeing bits & pieces of yours while you showed us your angels!

I personally LOVE the new format! I am in love with the BG style!

My favorite happening is the expansion of the kits with added directions/projects. I love that I'm going to get real ideas with help on how to make them come to life. I always love what I see in the Designer Gallery, but often can't reproduce it -- now I'll be able to!
Posted by: Jennifer | June 17, 2009 at 10:22 AM
OMG!! I love the alternative printing class!! I wish my printer wasn't on the blink! Aaargh!
Posted by: Katherine | June 17, 2009 at 12:21 PM
I think the way you are incorporating classes with your kits and not just selling a bunch of stuff no one (or very few) know what to do with! Beautiful!
Posted by: Jessica Farris | June 17, 2009 at 01:26 PM
I like the classes and the directions that are coming with some of the new kits. I love to learn new techniques and try different things.

I recently came across Bad Girls while browsing through Tattered Angels. Bad Girls is absolutely gorgeous and darling. Just what a grown up girl could ask for. A scrapbooking candy store full of sumptuous yummy treats for the eyes and the soul. I definitely will be adding this to my haunts list.-Christie
