Beatrix, the 5 year old little girl who I babysit for, has totally gotten me back into my little ponies in a way that makes me want to scream and pull my hair out. I watch her sit there engrossed by the same my little pony movie that's about friendship, adventure, songs, rainbows, stars, more rainbows, magic wands, and very bad songs week after week. When we don't watch the my little pony movie we read the books. I find it hard to believe that I too was once in love with the same my little pony cartoons myself when I was her age. Now I watch them in a state of utter confusion, disgust, and awe. I mean ponies that sleep in beds in weird pink villas in the middle of the rainbow forest and put on talent shows, it doesn't get much better than that, but it does give me an uneasy stomach at the same time.
I made this while volunteering at the Visionary Art Museum on Sunday. Not a lot of people came that day because it was so nice out, but it was also 90 degrees. Only Baltimore goes from 60 to 90 in a matter of days and its a little hard to take.
Can someone buy me a scanner for my birthday? A scanner would make my blog a whole lot better and I would post much more often.Overall the quality of my life would improve much more with my very own scanner.
Here is a birthday card that I made for my Baba's 80th birthday and a sympathy card that I made for my favorite family the Fillys'. Neither one look like a sympathy or a birthday card but its the thought that counts.
My friend Joe and I are trying to go into the card making business and will be screen printing cards like the one you see below that we made for my mom's birthday hopefully soon! I do the horse, he does the triangles.
