My mom and I made these super cool invites yesterday for my cousin’s lingerie bridal shower:
On the back we wrote the address on more pretty paper then stapled it to the velum and tore the edges. This worked perfect because we slipped them into clear envelopes. Hope she likes them (and they do look cuter in person)!

I finished my back-tack bag last night, filled it with goodies today and shipped it off to my secret partner. What do you think?
um, ignore that weed.
Remember the fabric and goodies I got? You can see them here if you don’t. I used the striped stuff for the lining and the floral as one of the patches for the outside. I pulled from my stash for the rest. I made the bag a little long so Sciarrino had the idea to fold the top over, and I love it. The cord comes through the fold on one side and hooks onto a button on the other. My secret partner knits so I got her a couple of skeins of fun stuff. I also through in some ribbon (well duh, right?), and a few cards of buttons from my great grandmother’s stash. I hope she likes it all. My secret partner (the one sending to me) has e-mailed me a bunch and I can not wait to see what kind of bag I’m getting. I love swaps!!!! (and this is the first one I’ve been in so I’ll have to look for another, I kind of found this one on accident).
I packed up a bunch of orders today for the Ribbon Jar, including my first to the Netherlands and Hawaii, cool! After working all day Sciarrino came home at 4:30 so we could take the path through the park to the post office. I walked over in my bikini top and skirt, I’m such a rebel! But working inside all day I gotta get my sun where I can (don’t worry mom I put a top on when I got to the post office). After we laid out at the waterfront and I listened to Harry Potter: Order of the Phoenix on my iPod (gotta get ready for book 6 baby!!! and yes, I’ll be dressing up). Happy sunny day!
