Have a great weekend!

Bah!

Love this! {thanks Kath!}

Raise your hand

Raise your hand if, like me, you could go a lifetime without hearing the words Twitter/Twit/Twittering again.

As a verb,  doesn't it kind of sound like something you wouldn't want to announce? Maybe it is just me.

The Seed

The Seed by Johnny Kelly : a two-minute animated voyage through nature’s life cycle, following the trials and tribulations of a humble apple seed. {via NotCot}

Love the papercraft.

Silver is my favorite color. For years, I was a strict Christmas ornament curator - only silver on the tree {some vintage pink ornaments even met a bath of acetone to become the desired color}. So, here is a small collection of gift toppers with sparkle.

With metal stamps, For You impressed onto aluminum plant labels you can find at the nursery  -  Vintage tin sample spoon,  can be had on Ebay -  Glitter star to adhere with spot of double stick tape - Monogram cut into one of my shield tags, crepe paper ruffle with square silver brad - Chipboard letter wrapped with silver thread - Vintage rhinestone buttons to thread onto ribbon -  One of my glitter trophy tags with ribbon - Monogram stamped onto my favorite silver ribbon, highlighted with embossing powder - One of my silver letterpress gift buckles with velvet ribbon - Tin number used to mark telephone poles, similar can be found here.

Am I the last one to know about this site?
The Book Cover Archive is chock full of type-y illustrative goodness.

 

 

 

 

God, I love this guy

5 of the many things I adore about C -

1. the soft curls on his head.
2. that he prefers watching The New Yankee Workshop rather than cartoons in the morning.
3. his long eyelashes - the first thing I noticed.
4. his swagger - sometimes he walks like Mr. Jefferson.
5. his Beatles medley

Vive la France

Much to appreciate from here
