Let's peel back these layers!

juliannlaw Here is a closeup of the endpapers in my debut picture book, THE WORKD’S LONGEST SOCK. I work digitally in Adobe Photoshop but the program doesn’t do it all for me! I knit all the pixels by hand! Haha! I do have things I do to help me work quickly and efficiently, though, like using layers. Here you get to see me take off those layers one by one till we are back at nothing but a background. The World's Longest Sock is now available on  Amazon ,  Barnes and Noble ,  Target , or wherever you  buy books !

soda + mentos = fun

My latest work for Today's Mama is a printable which includes directions for how to make a geyser with Mentos and Diet Coke plus cut-outs for the pieces you need.  We had to try it out when my sis and her kids were in town. . . Click here for the free printable . . . Oh, and speaking of Diet Coke, I've been Diet Coke free for three weeks now! And it has been much harder to give it up than I ever expected. Anyhow, these pics are making me thirsty.

Sometimes when the sun is bright and the kids are on the move, I like to put my camera on the action or sports setting and just click away. I never know what I'm going to get till I review them later. . . P.S. Anyone know how to get rid of a binkie? It's time.
