Good morning and welcome to tuna Tuesday Spread kindness around like cat hair, everywhere, on everything, and impossible to get rid of. No surface should remain untouched.

Just a tip: if you're going to make your furniture out of natural sustainable bamboo, then for the love of all that's holy DO NOT use "PE" rattan accents. Just don't. Don't do that. Get off my planet.

Humaning.
A four-panel comic. In panel 1, a Northern Cardinal and American Goldfinch perch above a busy crowd in a city, looking down. The cardinal says "It's a nice day to go humaning." The goldfinch says "Just look at them. Majestic." In panel 2, a close-up of the two birds. The cardinal says "Nobody tells you that you'll reach a certain age and suddenly get into humaning. I hit 3 years old, and then bam."The birds are looking out over the crowd scene. In panel 3, the cardinal says "Their calls sound funny to us, but each one has a unique meaning." Below, people are saying various things: "I'm tired." "Where's my phone?" "I'd murder a burrito." In panel 4, the birds look down excitedly at a man walking by. The cardinal says "Wait, is that a guy who got dressed in the dark and put his shirt on inside out and backwards?" And the goldfinch exclaims, "Holy... that's a lifer!"

These two bracelets really don't photograph well because they're so sparkly. Tiny shiny metallic seed beads and Swarovski crystal bicones. Very simple, tedious work that is lightweight and unobtrusive. My own design. #jewelrymaking #beading

I've spent the last few months unable to do rubber stamping or cardmaking, so to keep my hands busy and creativity active I picked up my beads after a 5-year hiatus. Here's just a sampling of what I've been making: mostly bracelets with superduo beads (two hole pinched ends). #jewerymaking #beading
Nine hand beaded bracelets laid out on display.

Made this little motif today to fill in a too-short bracelet. Thinking of making 2 more and clipping them to my blue velveteen shoes. And yeah, I see the coating coming off the blue superduo bead; the flip side is fine, but it's an issue with this color. #DIY #art #jewelry

Night night, sweet dreamies. Tomorrow may ask a little more of some hearts than others, so if you can, be gentle with yourselves and with those you meet. We never truly know what someone is quietly carrying. For now, rest your mind, cosy up somewhere warm, and let tomorrow wait until the morning.

This is what I *really* wanted these groovy flowers for! Don't they look like they were made for this treatment? I had so much fun with these. Sadly, I can't find a "Groovy" word stamp I'd buy, and I don't trust my shaky hands. #art #handmade
Yeah, it's a jumbled mess but I love it. May your day bloom with happiness.Scribbled flowers and leaves with offset colors, sprinkles, and rhinestones and the phrase "On Your Birthday".

I wanted this stamp & die set for ages and finally got it for myself. I call them "groovy flowers", and it was surprisingly difficult to come up with card designs using them the way they were intended. Tomorrow I'll show you what I *really* wanted them for. #art #handmade
