These are our pumpkin carvings. I carved the house with the bats, my son carved the cat in the tree, my daughter carved the dragon. My husband carved the witch and the spider for our little tot. Our pumpkins did not last long this year.  We carved them a couple of weeks ago and they [...]

I just made this flower painting.  Hubby had to go into work early tonight.   The kids went to bed and then he went to work.   With alone time I sat in front of this canvas tossing colors on to it.

If you have been following me on Twitter this week, you would of seen references to me making some necklaces.  Well, here they are. I made these necklaces for my mom and my sisters.  It’s “birthday season” in my family,  and money is tight right now. So, I thought I would make them something original. [...]

Finally a piece of good news.  We are moving!  We are so happy! We have to buy a house, over the internet.  We can’t go to the town and just wait around to find a house, there’s no time, and it is not wise living in your car in the winter with three kids, a [...]

IT seems that everything that can go wrong is.  I have never had so much trouble with a computer until we got this Dell two years ago.  I really wish my husband took my advice and replaced the older Dell with a MAC.   Last night there was this faint high pitch noise.  I thought it [...]

Last night I closed www.cafepress.com/kjmt.  No emails at all from CafePress were sent last night or this morning.  And apparently you have to beg them for the remaining money you have given them for the premium shop.  Totally bogus.   With most companies, if you close an account they will send you an email, or give [...]

It is a hard decision, but a necessary adjustment. Since the changes CafePress has implemented, the restructuring of the services has hurt many shopkeepers.  I, for one think it is terrible to price a product differently to one customer than another.  I first thought that I could wait out the change, CafePress said this was [...]

I just added these three photographs of an Atlas Moth to RedBubble.  I was kindly invited to join a group that was having a contest for patterns found on wings.   I entered the close up photograph of the Atlas Moth wings.  It looks like a great group with an interesting theme, and I can’t wait for [...]

This week I worked on some fantasy artwork for my Zazzle shop.   I also updated the look to something more simple but interesting.  I made these images with Poser tubes and my photographs in Photo Shop and Paint Shop Pro.  The one titled Natasha and Goddess of Universe are my favorites.  I love the colors in [...]

I have been working on my CafePress store Just Butterflies for the past few days.  I made a new layout for it.  I updated my butterfly identification guide.  And most importantly I added thirteen butterfly photographs.  Normally its the butterfly digital art / paintings that I would add, but this time I thought I should make [...]

I have spent most of the day over at  my RedBubble gallery updating the account with new photographs.  There are sixteen new photographs of bees and dragonflies.  All the photographs are available for sale as Greeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints, Framed Prints and Posters.  The photographs were taken during our trip [...]

I have been going back and forth between catching up on my email and going over my pictures these past few days.  I’m down to a little over 200 emails to read, so I decided I would upload a  few pictures to ImageKind as a reward for working through all those emails.  The beginning count [...]

We had just spent the past three weeks living out of a suitcase and bothering our family.   It’s good to be home, but we prefer NH temps than ID temperature of dry/hot 103+.  It is soo hot out, and it’s chilly inside, because some one likes an Artic Chill…and it ain’t me.   Besides recking our [...]

I usually stash away the kids clothes that they ruin with holes and stains to save for reusing in crafts or for when I find a local establishment that will recycle them.  Well, today was the day that I decided I will change that store gift set box into a useful box.  I took my [...]
