Too Funny not to post

Ok, this was just too funny not to share... I almost feel bad... but I can't stop laughing


Woke up about 730 this morning and my husband wasn't in bed next to me, so I got up to go find him. Walk into the living room and see him lying on the couch. I seriously thought he was awake, so I went over and stood directly in front of him. A few seconds later, he opens his eyes and screams "HOLY SHIT, GOD DAMN, FUCK" And a few more things. Eyes were big and round and he started shaking. I had scared the living shit out of him. He literally looked like this:

I felt so bad, but I still laughed my ass off for a good 20 minutes. And just now, retelling the story, I had to stop typing and laugh some more. So much that I have tears coming out of my eyes.

He said that he had been dozing and didn't realize he had fallen asleep, so to him it was as if I had appeared out of nowhere, thus scaring him

Anyways, hope it makes you laugh as well

GIFT TAGS AND PARTY INVITATIONS:

Ok, So I've gone thru and added a couple new designs to my shop. One section being devoted to Gift tags for products. What I did, was take an idea someone suggested in the Cafepress forums and took a bumper sticker and placed a photo and TO/FROM text all around, surrounded by dotted lines. Concept is, cut along the dotted line, and voila...instant gift tags coordinated to match greeting cards that can be found in the holidays section. Here is one I have created so far....

I also created a section devoted to party invitations.... find pre-made invitations for birthdays, bbqs, christmas parties, New Years Eve, Easter Egg Hunts, etc. You can take a look at those here.

So, with holidays right around the corner, start planning your parties and gift shopping now.

ITS ALL ABOUT ME, ME, ME, ME

Well, this blog is supposed to be dedicated to my photography and products for sale, but I figure that I can't always talk about myself.... not without boring you anyways. So, I'm also going to periodically link to some of my favorite items on cafepress. Now, I could easily create an affiliate site and earn money off of advertising and helping to sell other peoples work, but all in all, I don't want to go thru the hassle. Instead, I'll advertise for them and let them keep their own profits for all their own hard work.

But before I do that, I want to tell a funny (at least I think so) story. I used to be in the Army and in January 2005, I deployed to Bahrain and was gone for a year. My boyfriend at the time (now my husband) knows how much I like Dr Pepper and wanted to have plenty stocked up for me when I returned home. While stocking up on normal Dr Pepper, he also picked up an occasional case of Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper. So, upon returning home in December 2005, I walk into a laundry room filled with about 20 cases of Dr Pepper and 12 cases of the Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper. The normal Dr Pepper quickly disappeared, as I can go thru a case a week easily. The Cherry Vanilla on the other hand....well... I haven't drank a single one since returning home. So, here it is, nearly 2 years later and I still have about 6 cases of Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper sitting in the laundry room. My husband has drank the rest of it. So yeah, I thought it funny... I'm just not that great of a story teller in which to try and tell you the story so that it appears funny. So...anyone want a case of Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper? Can you even buy it anymore?

Ok, so on to my favorite designs and what not....here is a design that I purchased on a t-shirt yesterday to give to my niece for her birthday... (shh, don't tell her)


This design can be found at Barrys World

Innovative Uses for Cafepress Products

At this time, I would like to invite the creative types to check out Sag's unique and Innovative Uses for products bought from cafepress shops. http://www.cafepress.com/sagart/749574. She had great ideas and great products too, so be sure to check her shop out at http://www.cafepress.com/sagart

I've got my creative moments, but I don't think I would have ever thought to do some of the things that she has. Things ranging from crafts using pillows for seat cushions, t-shirts for quilts, poster for mailbox covers and ornaments as ceiling fan pulls.. If you have your own creative ideas, feel free to post them here...
