Good Morning! Getting ready for the day, it’s going to be a great one~

and it surely was!  We woke up happy, got breakfast and got Jordan off to school with no problem.  When Jalen and I got home, he started on his book report and I fired up the Google Reader.  What should I see but this post on the Creating Keepsakes Blog. ***:) can you say excited?!  I am so thankful that Megan picked my Home Made Pies layout as her favorite layout of the year!

I also got working on the YUDU for the first time today.  I got ample warning that you must make sure the emulsion sheets are completely dry before continuing on in the process.  I ran it through the dry cycle 3 times and then followed up with my hairdryer.  I am pretty happy with how it turned out.  I printed a few different designs of LOVE and thanks cards.  I love the texture of the ink. love.  Things I didn’t love about the YUDU- the drying time was killing my patience.  The primary colors of ink that I got (UGH- what an ugly red, and I didn’t even try the blue or yellow)  Things I need before my next run: white ink, and maybe silver ink , Neutrals.  I’d also love an aqua colored ink as well- but I don’t like the colors they offer.  I need more transparencies, emulsion, blockout and I’d love another screen.

here are a few of my quick cards from today:

I printed a lot more than these in various colors.  I also screened cutchens.com on the backs of the cards. I love it!  I can’t wait to make more varieties!  the corduroy buttons/brads and cardstock are from stampin up and the flower is making memories.

now you may be thinking, couldn’t she just do that by printing with her printer? yes, I could. but I loved the texture of the ink. and I can’t wait to plan some tshirt and other fabric prints *i just picked up a bunch of tshirts from target!

Today was an early out day for Jordan at Preschool so I got the boys happy meals from McDonald’s.  I found it quite amusing that both boys can identify the golden arches, read the logo… but Jordan pointed out, “that guy looks weird” and I told him, his name is Ronald McDonald.  and he was like, “who?” and even Jalen didn’t know who Ronald McDonald was either.  Today’s picture of the day came after lunch when Jordan put on this hat, he said, ” I look like Bowser’s minion.” ha ha.

here’s who he was talking about:

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you’re having a great day!

Love Love and Blog you Later!
