Feature Friday - June 5, 2009

Wow! Here we are on a Friday again! I can't believe how fast the weeks go by!

Speaking of time flying, yesterday was the last day of school for my kids. Needless to say, the next few days will be a bit harried and chaos promises to reign. But soon we'll get into a new routine and we'll enjoy a less hectic pace. I plan to soak in these warm, sunny, laid back days and make it a point to live in the moment!

Hey! Stop laughing! I can dream can't I?? Okay...let me put it this way...I'll try to live in the moment!

Meanwhile...on to my Feature Friday pick for this week...

Okay...are you ready??? Brace yourself...it's a good one! And I know first hand because I bought some of her lovely items and just got the package early this week....here we go...

My feature this week is...

My Grandpa's Pen
http://MyGrandpasPen.etsy.com

A few weeks back I stumbled upon this darling little Etsy shop and was so impressed with all of the wonderful handmade paper goods that I immediately added it to my list of favorites. Jeanine, the creative spirit behind My Grandpa's Pen, creates beautiful handmade cards for any and every occasion, whimsical chipboard albums, hang tags and more. Take a look...

Beware of Pirates Greeting Card



Baby Themed Hang or Gift Tags



Red Yellow and Green Funky Flower Chipboard Album



And finally, here's an item that's already sold...purchased by none other than ME! Regardless I just HAD to share it with you simply because I love it so much! Jeanine is located in Alberta, Canada (I'm in Pennsylvania) so my package had to ship internationally. When I placed my order just last week--June 28th to be exact--I never thought I'd have it in time to give to my husband for our anniversary...which is today, by the way :). But I was wrong...way wrong! Jeanine got the order packaged...very beautifully I might add...and I got it in just a few days. I was completely surprised by her speedy service and exceedingly delighted with her work!



Aren't they wonderful?!?! Jeanine's attention to detail is obvious and her creativity flows from one item to the next!

So take some time to hop on over to My Grandpa's Pen and take a closer look at her work...I promise you won't be disappointed!!

Okay...I need to TRY to get some things done! The chaos has ensued and I'm already distracted! Sigh...it's going to be a lo-o-o-ong few days!!

More creative finds on the way very soon...have a nice weekend and see you next time...

Until then,
