Yo-yo Gift Tags


Yo-yo Gift Tags, originally uploaded by aaaandreaaaa.
I love yo-yos, and I made these gift tags last year for swapbot. The reason why I love yo-yos so much is that I get instant crafting satisfaction especially, if I'm short on time. Tutoring made me extremely tired this week, so no new projects. I spoke nonstop eight hours straight; the life of a Reading Specialist during this time year. At least I got some good rest this weekend, and I am ready to go again. I can't wait for summer vacation, so I have time to craft.

I sure do miss the Desert Botanical Garden. This photo was taken when I volunteered as a docent. I want to go back and visit the garden.

I love this yo-yo table runner. This is a project I completed last summer. I love how it turned it, and it made a great Christmas present for my friend Karen.

Unfortunately, no new projects this week. Busy working on finishing up my homework for the Spring semester at SMU and gearing up for the second round of TAKs testing (our state assessments).

Little Folks Square Dance Scarf

After two weeks of stress thinking I might have breast cancer (I don't), after attending school at SMU, teaching school, tutoring before and after school with my dyslexic students, and trying to survive the last six weeks of school. I decided I needed to create something for me. Purl had their moving sale and offered free shipping on Anna Maria Horner's Little Folks line. With that said, here it is; my new scarf. I can't wait to wear it to school tomorrow. Praise God for the life he allows me to live. Here's to a great life.
