Caroline saves the day

Ah! Remember that one time I said I'll be doing DIYs this weekend? And remember that one time I joked about probably not having any DIY pics to post on Monday, which is today? Haha funny story, but more on that later. OK no, I'm lying. I'm taking that bitter little story with me to the grave, I tells ya.

Thankfully an honourary member of the bloggerati (that's not a word, I just made it up to make you curious and sound very very VIPish) took me up on my challenge and did a little DIYing of her own this past weekend, recreating the nifty little book mark I posted here. Which means even though my most successful DIY project of the weekend was turning a frozen chicken into dinner, I actually have pics to post! Courtesy of A Girl Called Caroline - hugs, darling dear! You rock like... like...like... I want to say mayonnaise...? I don't know why. It's Monday though, so let's all join hands and cut my mushy brain some slack, okay?

Anyhoo! Here are her step-by-step snapshots which I couldn't have done better myself:

On a completely unrelated note, are you just crying at the sight of your own handwriting right now? If my hand could write like this girl's, I would never put my fingers on a keyboard again. In fact, I'd probably even stop texting and buy myself a carrier pigeon. I'm sorry, Caroline. I'm hating you just a little right now.

Cute, ey? Thanks, crafty Caroline! You're a gentlemanlady and a scholar. Hopefully we'll meet face to face one day for a nice cuppa tea and quality chatter (of more than 140 characters per thought).

Be sure to check out Caroline's blog. She kind of reminds me of myself when I was that age. No. No, no, no, you did not just use that line. No. No, no, no. "That age"? Seriously? Ack!
