New Stuff on Etsy

In a fit of productivity this afternoon, not only did I manage to print out some new cards but also photograph them and list them for sale on my etsy shop. Miracle! ; )

I'm still working on trying to make some Thank You and Happy Birthday cards, but am having trouble finding photos that I like, that fit the theme, and that also have good space for adding text. It's been tougher than I had previously anticipated. Perhaps I should go buy a cake or cupcakes or Krispy Kreme so I have sweets to take pictures of and make those into birthday cards (is that a viable excuse?).

In other news, Zach came home a couple hours early today, allowing me to duck out and read magazines at Borders for a bit. It was fabulous. Then tonight we put the kiddo to bed and had a friend over to "keep watch" as we went out to join some friends for a birthday dinner. This is actually the 3rd weekend in a row that we've had plans to get together with friends at a gathering, and it's been really nice seeing everyone regularly. The added bonus? I got to wear this sweater dress that I bought earlier this week on sale at Urban Outfitters. I paired it with a new scarf, textured tights, and my grey suede flat boots from Argentina. I almost took a picture of my outfit, I was so proud. When you spend most days feeling frumpy and wearing just t-shirts and jeans, it's really really nice to get to have more fun dressing every once in a while. ; )
