Rosette Keepsake Pins

Have you ever lost an entire day working and or playing on the computer. 

 Between twitter, flickr, e-mails, job applications, downloading, photo editing, and catching up with some blogs... I have been sitting at this silly computer all day long!

But... 

I have gotten quite a bit done, 

except make much of any leeway on finding a job!

But...

must not think of that too much or I will have another

 mental breakdown and honestly no one wants to see that! 

I actually have a lot I want to share with you today! 

First is that I will have NEW items in my Lollishop very very soon.

Yupp- I made Rosette Keepsake pins. 

Perfect for all those seriously silly occasions!

So I did a little photo-shoot to properly display them.

There are many many more pictures on my flickr if you want to check them out.

I really need to get a tripod. I took all these photos myself by reaching my arm out in different directions and snap, snap, snapping away. Honestly, I think I easily took 600 shots!

I really might be the biggest dork ever!

Last weekend I had all my Keepsake Cake items at the Art Institute of Portland. 

I wish I could say it was a success but really it was quite the opposite! 

But I had some friends and family come and see what I have been working on and they all said they loved what I was doing!

So I have been really blessed in Blog world as of late. 

I am making new friends left and right and 

I have flickr, twitter and Lollishops to thank for that!

One new friend is Sweetina 

who awarded me with the Kreativ Blogger Award!

She said some incredible sweet things about me- really shocked me honestly! 

Thank You again Sweetina!

Also 

Today I found out that Sadie Lou Who

gave me an honorary mention and award for my gingerbread house!

Isn't that just the sweetest treat! Truly I am a lucky girl!

Also Effunia tagged me ... 

but I am always doing these and am honestly running out of things to say

but I thought of a couple ...

1. I sold my first Keepsake Cake awhile back to a lovely girl in Gremany.

But the first one got destroyed and the second one is lost. 

So I think I have a bad shipping bug at the moment. 

I really don't want to be scared of international shipping

 so if any one you have advise I would really appreciate it!

(update: I just found out it finally arrived!)

2. I want a 1954 Chevrolet

Yupp its parked just a couple blocks down the road and it is possible I could trade my VW Bug straight across! How cute would I be!

3. I'm currently trying to teach myself how to play the piano. My mother just bought herself a beautiful baby grand and so I thought I should learn. It actually really fun, although I'm not good at it at all. My mom seems to have just picked it up! But if I could just learn to play a few Christmas melodies I would be pretty pleased with myself.

Hope you are all having a lovely week!
