Two Calvin & Hobbes pages in one LOAD? Is it possible I'm a wee bit obsessed? :)
journaling:
Ah, my childhood. The days of the comics section in the newspaper. They were, of course, the best part of the paper. (Meanwhile, my kids are asking: what's a comic strip? You mean like webcomics? But what's a newspaper?) Every day - rows of black and white strips, and then on Sundays, big color ones.
One day, while living in Berlin, we discovered a new strip in the military paper, by Bill Watterson, called
Calvin and Hobbes. (It's even possible that it was when it first came out, or close to it.) I don't remember the first strip we ever read, except that we liked it and wanted to read more.
I do remember when we first read this Sunday strip, the bedbug one. I remember how hard we laughed, doubled over helplessly (because of course, we said, "Don't let the bedbugs bite" all the time at bedtime). I remember Dad trying to explain the Kafka joke at the beginning. Dad cut it out of the paper and put it up on the frig. We read Calvin and Hobbes religiously after that, and bought every collection book we could find. Chris and I would act out scenes from the strips, or just sit together with the books, reading them aloud, taking turns with the parts.
Years later, in college, I made my dad a Father's Day card by going to the library and photocopying all the strips I could find where Calvin gives his dad a hard time (and sometimes the other way around) and pasting them into a giant card. There are still various "Calvinisms" in our family banter, exchanges like, "What do you say?" followed by, "Sounds like a barge coming through!" or "While I'm dreaming, I'd like a pony."
The bedbug strip stayed up on the frig for years and years, through at least six moves, getting more yellowed and tattered as time passed. It never failed to bring a smile to my face. It has since disintegrated, no doubt - I think it's time to put up a new copy.
Supplies:
font: Typical Writer, Calvin and Hobbes

I made this card using Lawn Fawn's Loads of Fun stamp set coloured with Copic markers. I popped up the laudry basket on foam tape and added glossy accents to the washer to make it look like a glass door. More details at: mochafrapscrapper.blogspot.ca/2016/02/loads-of-fun.html

Amazingly sturdy (to bring the cast iron stove down). The boys wished it could be left up all the time.
Day 4
Inspiration : Greed
[The background story]
I don't know that I'd consider myself greedy when it comes to art supplies, but I definitely want to have them all...so maybe that is greedy. I've tried really hard to focus on only purchasing those items that I know that I'll use, but I'm finding more and more, if it's made by Papertrey Ink, I'm going to use it one way or another.
Journaling reads:
"I can't even be mad at Sherry for getting me hooked on Papertrey Ink! Their stamps are flawless, their dies cut like butter, their color matching between papers, inks & buttons is incredible! I've quickly become obsessed and each month my wishlist grows. I'm addicted & I want it ALL!"
Supplies used:
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink [hawaiian shores]
Patterned paper: Papertrey Ink [soft stone, hawaiian shores], Studio Calico
Washi Tape: Love My Tapes
Buttons: Papertrey Ink
Die cuts: Sizzix [Limelight]
Circle punch: Marvy
Adhesive: Darice [pop dots], Glue Dots, Scotch, Xyron
Pen: Staedtler
