Spring, Shamrocks and a Free Font!

Wow! I'm a such a great blogger! Please note my intense sarcasm. I have been so out of it with my pregnancy this year that my blog has been more than a little neglected. I'm so sorry! It's just that when I have some free time (which is barely never thank you very much) all I can think about is baby S and getting ready for her arrival!

So anyways, I did manage to get two new products up in my store in the past few days and haven't had time to share them with you. First, I've added a St. Patrick's Day pack. Great for the month of March!

You can find these Irish centers HERE :)

Next, my Spring Centers!  I know, I know.... it's a bit early to be thinking about spring (especially with today's snowstorm..... hello!... I've done my share of cold temperatures and I'm ready for the heat my friends!) but in case you want to get ready with all the cutting and laminating involved in preparing centers, they're there and ready for to be prepped!

You can find these centers HERE :)

Also, I've been playing around with iFont Maker and have a free font to share with you!

This is the font I used for my Shamrocks and Leprechauns Pack! I really like it... and I hope you do to! Feel free to use this font in whatever you would like, just make sure you link back to my blog :) Thanks!

So that's pretty much it for me! Tomorrow and Friday are work days for me and then next week is my last week with my kiddos! Then it's March break and then my maternity leave starts. I'm really excited and a bit scared at the same time. Not being in school for a whole year....wow! I have a feeling I'm going to miss the classroom! But that's just the pregnant me talking I guess. Once baby S is here, I'll be really happy to be able to devote an entire year to my little girl :) And just so you know... I still haven't decided if I like Sofia or Sophia better.... It changes everyday! I feel like I'm never gonna be able to choose, then I'm gonna give birth and I'm gonna have to quickly choose one and I will just name whichever one pops into my head and then I'm gonna regret it!! Anyways I think I need to calm down about this f/ph debate. It's not like it changes the actual pronunciation of the name! But I still fell like it's an important decision and I want to make the right one :)

Have a great evening everyone! I'm off to do some baby laundry :) and then I'm going to watch an episode of Drop Dead Diva, which I've started watching last week. Does anyone watch that show? I LOVE it! It's perfect!

Until next time,

Want to win a copy of one of my new packs? Just leave a comment below telling me you follow my blog and which pack you would like! Don't forget your email. I'll pick a winner tomorrow morning when I wake up :)

Congrats Cathy! I've emailed you my Spring Centers :)

Currently and a free font!

Hi everyone!

With the holidays officially over, I am now able to take some time to blog and blog stalk. I don't go back to work until Monday so I still have a few days to relax and wake up late :) Such joy! The holidays were pretty busy this year but we had lots of fun and got to hang with family so it was great. I hope you all had a great time!

I was lucky enough to get an iPad from my parents! (thanks mom and dad!) Obviously the first app I wanted to try was the iFont Maker. It is so easy to use! I love it! I've made a few fonts but only one is ready. I still need to tweak the others. I ordered a stylus online which I am hoping will arrive soon and which I am hoping will help me make even prettier fonts! So today, I give to you: Miss Handwriting, which is basically my handwriting.

Simply click on the image to download the font. I give it to you for free because I LOVE free fonts and I'm sure you do too :) I simply ask that you link back to my blog if you do use it. And also, a little comment love would be nice ;) Enjoy!

Also, I am linking up with Farley for the first Currently of the year!

Font from A Cupcake for the Teacher

1. My boyfriend was sweet enough to start a little fire this morning before breakfast. I love the sound it makes and also the smell :) and mostly.... the warmth! It's been pretty cold up here in Canada the last few days, so I'm enjoying the heat!

2. We worked on Sophia/Sofia's baby room over the holidays. I LOVE it! It is not quite finished yet but the walls are painted, the crib and changing table are there, the crib bedding set is in the crib, the curtains, the hamper... we still need to put up frames and wall decalls but mostly, the room is done. It is so adorable and girly! I am really happy with it! And no, we still haven't decided how we are going to spell her name... I am really having a hard time deciding! I keep thinking I will get a sign or I will suddenly fall in love with the ph or the f.... but no! Oh well, we still have 3 months to figure it out :)

3. I bought a bunch of papers to grade over the holidays thinking I would be super productive... but that has not happened yet. I only have 4 days left before we go back and I really want to do all the work I'd planned on doing but.... I think I might procrastinate for another day or two! 

4. I am really loving wedge sneakers. Like this pair:

I wish I didn't because I really do NOT need to be spending right now but they look so pretty! And comfortable too! And with all the after Christmas sales I might be able to snag a cute pair for a pretty good price! :)

5. We already bought a stroller... but it's a pretty huge one! It's mostly made for strolling around, not for outings. We need a smaller one that it more compact. I went stroller shopping over the holidays but I was alone. I need to go back with my boyfriend so that he can try them and figure out what we both like! Stroller shopping can be very overwhleming for first time parents! I had absolutely NO idea what to look for and how to tell if a stroller was a good choice or not. I was lucky enough to find a really nice salesperson who gave me the 411 on strollers and I feel quite informed now. Yay!

6. My OLW is quite simple but it is so important: SMILE! Everything is better when you smile and we often forget to do so. And when you smile, it makes others smile too! So in 2013 I will remember to smile, smile and smile... even when times get tough! 

Well that's it for me today! I have to go take down my Christmas decorations. Decorating for Christmas is so much fun... taking the stuff down, not so much... but we have to do it! And I'm not a big fan of decorations that stay there forever once the holidays are over!

Until next time,

Font Linky Party!

Good morning everyone!


I hope you are having a great weekend! For the lucky ones already on summer break, hopefully you are enjoying your time off and the chance to sleep in :) For those of you still in school, like me, hang in there! We can do it :)


I saw a pretty cool linky party yesterday that I just had to join!! A font linky party!! 

Isn't this picture the cutest? :) 

We all know how important fonts are! They can completely change what a document looks like. For better or for worse! I do remember a time where I thought Kristen ITC was really happening! I used it everywhere as I was not aware there were so many great free fonts online (Hello Kevin and Amanda!!). Thankfully, I now download hundreds of great fonts and can't wait to download more with this linky party!


So here are some of my favorite fonts :

This is Pea Emma

I use it all the time! 

This is a red bucket

The only thing is there are no capital letters

This is Elephants in Cherry Trees

It's so cute! Great for posters or titles.

This is Pea Summer Funkyness

Also great for posters and titles. 

It looks really cute with different colored letters.

And I love the little hearts everywhere.....

This Pea Jone

Cute and simple!

So there you have it! My favorite fonts! Now I'm off to download a bunch of great new ones! YAY!

Until next time,
