The lightness of summer

This summer I am taking some courses on line. So in between running after kids, cats, dog and hubby, I get to sit down at the computer and think some DEEP THOUGHTS. While that helps me feel like "little miss smarty pants" it hasn't helped my finding creative time of late. So this week, I carved out some time and let myself play! And I think it shows in my creations...

This little pink elephant makes me happy. First my son used to love elephants as a child. And my mother-in-law used to make a pink champane cake with pink eleghants on it for 21st birthdays~

I found this little alien from toy story in a bin at the "by the pound" Goodwill outlet. He challenged me to make something out of him. So, I took that challenge, gave him a balloon and a little box and there you go. Too cute.

This little cupcake has a childs toy on it for a "cherry" I found a bunch of these little balls, and I thought, they just look so happy...so I made a little happy cupcake and a cute little silly squirrel to sit on top.

so...I suppose I should back to my philosophy paper.
Happy Summer!
