Headbands! Pins! Belts! Some fantastic new arrivals at happylooks!<br /><br />My new favorite is the stationary/cards. Made from pages of an Atlas, these special little packets make for great gifts and are all around just plain cool. I love having unique cards around to send to people as thank you's, hello's, and I love you's. They are $9 for a pack of six.<br /><br />Have a Happy Day!</span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_GiMRDTQwHTw/Spcvawdie4I/AAAAAAAAAGU/Ble20wZ7PHg/s1600-h/pinkcl.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt;

According to <span style="font-style: italic;">Life Nature Library THE SEA </span>by Leonard Engel and The Editors of LIFE, British scientists weighed a whale a piece at a time. I guess there isn't any way to weigh a whole whale at one time. I've always thought of whales as easy going and friendly. They seem to just float around and be generally content with life, but that's just the way I see it from where I'm standing. This piece I did using a lovely record slip-cover I found at Goodwill (favorite shopping place ever!) I've always loved the look of woodcuts and so that's what I was going for here. A little painstaking but definitely worth it!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_GiMRDTQwHTw/SnIUCxjPdPI/AAAAAAAAAEs/qJRyJ6280aE/s1600-h/whale2+pen.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_GiMRDTQwHTw/SnIUCxjPdPI/AAAAAAAAAEs/qJRyJ6280aE/s400/whale2+pen.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364372144045126898" border="0" /></a>This whale piece I did using a felt-tipped pen<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_GiMRDTQwHTw/SnITZBXxkAI/AAAAAAAAAEk/Tf4xrYsE3dI/s1600-h/marsh+wh+1.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 338px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_GiMRDTQwHTw/SnITZBXxkAI/AAAAAAAAAEk/Tf4xrYsE3dI/s400/marsh+wh+1.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364371426737491970" border="0" /></a>Another t-shirt design!!!
