Counting Down with Frosty The Snowman & Friends



Some of my Favorite Holiday Memories were when CBS would broadcast their holiday cartoon specials.  I grewup in a time where kid's shows were only on a couple of hours on Saturday mornings and during the holidays.  It made it so much more exciting to have to wait to see these classics.  They still make me feel like a kid again every time I watch them.  I hope you enjoy:)

One Last OMG Fashion Trend For 2012

So right before the New Year I like to go back over years gone by.  I am sure I am not alone but right before I could close the chapter on this year someone had to squeak in one last eyebrow raising, WTF, are you serious fashion mishap.  I realize the most people think that you could put a burlap sack over a top model and they can make it look good (most often true) but I just found one thing that even a top model can't make look good.  You have to watch this video it is too funny - she can't even walk.  I think the expression on her face is not a professional pose but one that says "when I get my hands on my agent, I am going to..." I hope you enjoy and have a blessed day.  I know I am blessed because I never had to try on these shoes:)


If you are like me and love to see the funny things people will wear here is a great link to get more!  The link lands on my favorite:  http://ow.ly/gqeCG   enjoy:)

Monday Meet and Greet the Members of the Pacific Postcards Team - Nextlola

https://www.etsy.com/shop/nextlola
Our featured member today, Claudia, has the cutest postcards and other must-haves in her shop, Nextlola.  Each of her postcards, magnets, notebooks, etc are printed from her own magical art.   She has created a series of adorable characters based on her pets and calls them the "Zoo".  I can't wait to introduce her so lets get started.  Here are a couple of my favorite pieces:

From Claudia's Shop Announcement:
"In this shop you'll find printed postcards from my original illustrations...the chronicles of a little, happy, noisy zoo-family: dog, cats, parrots and a human living joyfully toghether.
In this shop (we hope) you'll find a smile..."

From Claudia's Profile Page:
"Hi, I'm Claudia from Italy!
One year ago, inspired by my beloved pets (1 mini-pinscher dog, 4 cats and 4 cockatiel parrots), I decided to try to turn my hobby into a job by printing my own illustrated postcards of the "Zoo" and selling them.
I have a lot of fun imaging us in many different situations and I hope it will be the same for you..."

If you are interested on becoming a member of the Pacific Postcards Team please go to this link http://www.etsy.com/teams/9158/pacific-postcards-team?ref=pr_teams and click "Apply."

We have 2 different memberships: one is a general membership, for those who love postcards and collecting postcards and the other is designed for shops with at least 25% of their
items listed are postcards.

The only difference in the memberships is that the latter will be included in shop
interviews, BNRs and postcard related activities. We also plan on having activities for
the general memberships. Hope to see you there soon.
