This is what’s been repeating in my head. It’s just too darn catchy, darnit:
And this is the title track off a lovely EP I just purchased this weekend:

Awe-inspiring
I fell down the rabbit hole by clicking on a page to a page to a page and then a link from that page to another- and wound up finding this AMAZING video.

I have no words. Let’s leave it at that.

The Aquabats Super Show
One of my favorite bands is The Aquabats and this weekend I had the chance to see them live for the third time this year. However, this time they were filming for
[The Aquabats Super Show! -- more info at the bottom of this post] and it was super duper super rad! It’s rumored to air next month on the HUB network — let’s hope it really happens! (They brought back Jem & The Holograms so I’m hopeful they can pull this off!)
JW and I were in the audience at The Glass House and it was such a great time! We managed to score a pretty sweet spot near Jimmy the Robot about 6-people deep and had a pretty great view of the stage. I was able to dance to my heart’s content when I wasn’t fighting off rogue crowd surfers or annoying crowd-pushers. My favorite crime-fighting superhero rock band did not disappoint: after seemingly hours of songs and dancing and fun, they came back for an encore and played a few more favorites. So awesome and such a fun night!!!!
By the end of the show, I was sweaty and tired and had lost my voice- the mark of a truly amazing show. Gotta love it!
For those uninitiated, here’s a quick overview of the sordid history of the until now ill-fated Aquabats Super Show tv series:
Publisher 101
I know a lot of people have a fear of the unknown when it comes to using programs like Photoshop and Publisher. For that reason, I’ve created the first of many back-to-basics guides related to using them. Here’s the first, a beginner’s guide to using Publisher 2010. Enjoy!
And on another note, I haven’t been able to get this song out of my head today:
All right – I’m out for now, but I’ll be back soon with more looks at my travel album & the journal project. Cheers!
Pure Awesome
It’s unofficially Awesome Week here on the blog! Everyone could use a little more awesome in their lives- and so, I bring you just a little more awesome.
Awesome as defined by Urban Dictionary:
| 1. | awesome | 5674 up, 1021 down |
|
Something Americans use to describe everything.
Oh wow it’s just awesome
|
||
Yep, that sounds about right.
Can you handle the magnitude of awesome from Oh My That’s Awesome?
Okay- how about this? It’s tough to watch some of the clips without shaking a bit. AMAZING.
All right, there you have it for today. Celebrate the awesome in your life, and be sure to point it out to others on a regular basis- they love it when you do that. 
Stay Awesome!
Gone campin’
I’ll be heading to Lake Arrowhead shortly for a nice little weekend retreat. In the spirit of the wilderness, I bring you a card duo that I put together when I saw the American Crafts “Campy Trails” paper line:
And on that note, I leave you with this:
Adorable Winter Wreath
Some of my scrappy friends told me to check out some crafting vids on YouTube and my mind was blown when I got there. Who knew there were so many tutorials and amazing ideas out there! Gotta love it!
Here’s a really awesome project I found by Danielle Flanders. This video shows you how to make an adorable winter wreath from crepe paper. Who knew it would be so easy?
And here’s another video that talks about one of my favorite techniques, misting. I’ve recently come to appreciate Mr.Huey’s flat/matte feel and have used him in combination with my Maya Mists and some custom-made dyes using food coloring. I also really love to use some spray paint in my misting projects. Check out this brief introduction to masking & misting by Kelly Purkey:
Now go out and make some magic of your own! I’m definitely inspired to go do some more misting. Until next time- peace out!
