Fingerprint Friday

There is a song by Steven Curtis Chapman that says:
I can see the fingerprints of god
When I look at you
I can see the fingerprints of god
And I know its true
You're a masterpiece
That all creation quietly applauds
And you're covered with the fingerprints of god

So look around you and see where YOU can see God's fingerprints. Is it in nature? Kids? Animals? Where do you see them?

To participate, check out Pampering Beki. My good friend's hubby got home from Iraq last Saturday. It was a wonderful day. I love this picture of her running to her man!

Photo by the amazingly spectacular Mandi. {Better?}

Also, don't forget my blog peep sale! If you want multiple items I'll cut you an even better deal, just let me know!

pressing on

I have a couple blogs featuring my shirts right now! Well, technichally a few - 3. {See Mom? I was listening!} All 3 of them are touting my Maternity Maker Shirt. Then the third also has Preggo. I love getting positive feedback about my wares. It's so wonderful and rewarding!

I have Google Alerts to thank for finding about the first one. Hehe. Sneaky sneaky! And I LOVE it when the owner is actually wearing it.

Then Danielle of WonderfulDay on Etsy convo'd me saying she'd blogged about it too. {She's not an owner...yet!} She has a little bun in the oven. By the by, she also had oodles of cute stuff in her own shop.

Then yesterday, I got a lovely convo from Sarrah who bought a couple shirts from me back in January (I think) like the day she found out she was preggo. Well, maybe the day after. Quick fast though. She's busy cooking her little munchkin for a few more weeks, but was kind enough to include me as the first feature on her blog! She has a great shop full of jewelry, PotatoFace, on Etsy.

So stop on over and check out some nifty shops and blogs. Spread the love, peeps!

feeds

I've been working on getting my feed {see it over there on the top left - the I heart flame} all set up and loverly. I've recently discovered the joys of having all the blogs I read, regardless of where they are hosted, available in one place. It is superb. My new favorite. Gone are the days of clicking on every link I have on my sidebar multiple times a day...just to be disapointed by lack of updates (*ahem*). Now I just log into Google Reader and can see everything new at once. Then I have the ease of clicking ito the site to comment or poke around further.

All this to say, I think everyone should sign up for my feed! Haha. And then sign up for all the other blogs you read and check them out much more easily and efficiently. It's way easy if you have gmail/blogger. In your gmail, just click the "Reader" link up top and get adding! Sweet. You'll love it. Promise.

for Mandi

So I've been getting an earful for not updating lately... Here ya go dear! (Did you like my first link, Mandi? I thought it was funny!) I don't really feel like I have too much to say.


I was up late finishing up a couple orders. I'm completely caught up and love that feeling! I printed a Maker t, 2 Grandma t's, and 2 Grandpa t's. They all came out perfectly! I'm so excited for the gma/gpa shirts. They're for a dear friend (who shall remain linkless) who is announcing her little baby news with them. :) Love it.


I'm anxiously awaiting my new shampoo, conditioner, and body wash (yes, I caved!). OH! I won a lovely purse yesterday! I didn't even enter on purpose. I signed up for the mailing list at Running with Heels a month or two ago. They were having a giveaway for Born shoes and my hubby has uber foot pain, so I thought it'd be cool if I won for him. I didn't win, but stayed on her list cuz that's how she picks winners. Yesterday I got an email saying I'd won a purse. Not just any purse...a lavender and orange leather clutch.

Gorgeous! I'm not so sure where I'll use it. I'm not a huge fashion lady. Well, not expensive fashion! I think she's pretty. I should totally name her. There's something to ponder...

Anyhoo, I'm off to find some lunch. Does Ramen ever sound super good to you? I'm having a noodle bowl and am ever so excited about it! (I'll say it first. I'm a nerd. Big time.)

bath

Do you ever find things that you keep coming back to? You want them...it's just the money? Yeah. Well here's one of mine.




But I think I may actually get some this time. I can usually only use dove soap. I get super itchy with anything else. So I'm excited for something new! Dove can be pricey anyway, so I may as well try something super cool and different, eh? (P.S. Lori, Mike says we can't be friends anymore. I've been saying "eh" too much!) So, since I have new monies in my PP account, I may just go order this, but I also want this and this... I'm a sucker for vanilla! Kinda nervous about those last two, but it's gotta be good with all their great feedback! So. I'll let ya know what ends up in my cart and how I like it. Yay for GudonyaToo! I'm excited for it.

family fest

I have been such a blog slacker lately. Acuallt I have been so incredibly busy! CT had it's first live presence this weekend! I worked a local family day. Unfortubately it wasn't much of a buying crowd, so not much was sold. However, I did have fun with my boddy who also sold there. It was a long day and we both got some sun (me = tan, Mandi = red, haha!). Mandi had me take her picture with every mascot she could find. The library dog/person, the college mascot, McGruff & a cop, Sparky (from AWANA), the clown... Yeah, she's a nut! I'm sure I'll have pics later.

In preparation for the big day I spent many hours printing and dyeing and racking my brain for what I'd need. It was a great experience and helped me figure stuff out for future events. I should be around more now that that is over. :)

Also to come, more t's (some babydoll) as soon as I get pictures of them. So keep an eye out!
