an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.
I had a pretty lame day yesterday. One of those days where everything makes me want to cry. Ugh. Lame. I made this book sort of in protest. I hope to fill it up even more but we'll see.
The covers were part of a birthday calendar from Anthro (no link to be found). Some of the other pages are currently framed on the impossible to photograph and make it look good wall.
this is so lovely. i hope you have a better day today!
i went to paper source a few weeks ago and wanted that heart stamp so badly, but they were all sold out.

I had one of those days too. I keep blaming it on the weather. I guess I better just get over it.
Your book is really pretty. I love the cover.

Sorry about the lame day. I’ve had quite a few of those lately. Blah. Kal always makes me nuts with her positive attitude (even with TWO little girls)!
Today has started out rather lame (my eye has some weird owie swelling around it, I haven’t showered yet, and it took an hour to get the little dude down for a NAP). So – off to make the best of it! Perhaps I should get dressed first.
