It has been so long!&lt;div&gt;Well.. it has been one super crazy year and there is such a back-log of posting to be done!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It feels like, "what hasn't happened this year?"  and where do I begin???  So many sales and experiments, a new jewelery line, a move to a new house in time for the holidays, a letterpress purchase and just for kicks, my partner in crime &lt;a href="http://sjackowski.blogspot.com/"&gt;(Stefan)&lt;/a&gt; and I went and tied the knot and then traipsed off to Spain for a honeymoon!  But we'll fill in all those details later :P&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This past weekend &lt;a href="http://flockandgather.blogspot.com/"&gt;Flock and Gather&lt;/a&gt; had our first official Christmas Sale and boy was it a doozy!  Balloons, cookies, tons of vendors from all over and a great turn out!  I got to design the poster again it was a blast as usual! :D  Everyone worked sooo hard and the results were amazing!  So thanks to everyone who participated and also to those who came out to attend!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And as for myself, I did a couple of little paintings over the last couple of weeks.. the start of a new series I think.  Here's a wee peak!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Happy winter everyone!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WOOST3YYX08/TuenfqHrrpI/AAAAAAAAAGo/ejS0w3Q3l_Q/s1600/winter%2Bpenguin%2B_print%2B3x3.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WOOST3YYX08/TuenfqHrrpI/AAAAAAAAAGo/ejS0w3Q3l_Q/s400/winter%2Bpenguin%2B_print%2B3x3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5685697216902835858" style="float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 216px; height: 389px; " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KmrOr6GK3cM/TuenfRKPhRI/AAAAAAAAAGc/Q8GgfEozssE/s1600/winter%2Bfox%2B_print%2B3x3.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KmrOr6GK3cM/TuenfRKPhRI/AAAAAAAAAGc/Q8GgfEozssE/s400/winter%2Bfox%2B_print%2B3x3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5685697210202686738" style="float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 176px; height: 322px; " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XSSgG-tqTSQ/TuenfYW8TiI/AAAAAAAAAGU/K6j3KaHTOFk/s1600/winter%2Bfall%2B_print%2B3x3.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XSSgG-tqTSQ/TuenfYW8TiI/AAAAAAAAAGU/K6j3KaHTOFk/s400/winter%2Bfall%2B_print%2B3x3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5685697212135001634" style="float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 180px; height: 323px; " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6313817558964769575-6955334152536532515?l=shaunabuck.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/feeds/6955334152536532515/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6313817558964769575&amp;postID=6955334152536532515' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/6955334152536532515'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/6955334152536532515'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/2011/12/oh-hey-there-its-been-awhile.html' title='Oh hey there..

The white chocolate snowflakes were a bit &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;fiddley&lt;/span&gt; but a fun challenge :P&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;With &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;marshmallows&lt;/span&gt; and hot chocolate it was &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;soooo&lt;/span&gt; good for an &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;indulgent&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;wintery&lt;/span&gt; day!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6313817558964769575-6472185495803793542?l=shaunabuck.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/feeds/6472185495803793542/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6313817558964769575&amp;postID=6472185495803793542' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/6472185495803793542'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/6472185495803793542'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/2011/02/mmmmmmm.html' title='Mmmmmmm...'/><author><name>Shauna Buck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07719981933417728872</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='21' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/StNFHER25ZI/AAAAAAAAABU/unBfjh4myEE/S220/IMG_7559+shauna+-+from+above.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ciBcVgq0acY/TWaTwipMoDI/AAAAAAAAAGA/hq41gvfV884/s72-c/snowflake%2Bcake.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6313817558964769575.post-8521406059990563402</id><published>2011-02-23T16:29:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-23T16:35:13.269-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='valentine'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='calligraphy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='illustration'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='card'/><title type='text'>Calligraphy &amp; Acorns</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EpOGL1W-zwQ/TWV8eHFfncI/AAAAAAAAAFw/4N7l-T3QWik/s1600/nuts%2Bvalentine%2BMERGED_%2Bpink.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 291px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EpOGL1W-zwQ/TWV8eHFfncI/AAAAAAAAAFw/4N7l-T3QWik/s400/nuts%2Bvalentine%2BMERGED_%2Bpink.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577000570308238786" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Oh Valentines!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Here's a little calligraphy practice and one&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;of the Valentine Card designs from the Feb. 12&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; sale&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;with &lt;a href="http://flockandgather.blogspot.com/"&gt;Flock and Gather!&lt;/a&gt;  This design also comes in a button, &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;which, to my joy!

I really like those for some reason :P  I filled it up with lots of sketches, and it became a bit of a stream of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;consciousness&lt;/span&gt; for all my thoughts on home and what it means :P  The back side is a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;suuuuper&lt;/span&gt; neon green with bits of text that kept popping up in my mind :P&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was a barrel of monkey's fun and I got to try lots of new techniques and transfers that I don't normally use for sketchbooks!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now, the scans came out a bit green, but no worries!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The full book will be digitized and online&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;through the sketchbook project site in the next few weeks!  In the meantime, &lt;a href="http://www.arthousecoop.com/projects/sketchbookproject/exhibitions"&gt;the tour&lt;/a&gt; has officially kicked off this past week in Brooklyn!  Check out the dates and locations&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;to see if its swinging by a city near you and if so - go take a peak! If anyone gets a photo with my book, I'd love to see it!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6313817558964769575-7334754329807008690?l=shaunabuck.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/feeds/7334754329807008690/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6313817558964769575&amp;postID=7334754329807008690' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/7334754329807008690'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/7334754329807008690'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/2011/02/traveling-sketchbook-2.html' title='The Traveling Sketchbook: 2'/><author><name>Shauna Buck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07719981933417728872</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='21' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/StNFHER25ZI/AAAAAAAAABU/unBfjh4myEE/S220/IMG_7559+shauna+-+from+above.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--aTcyhmmhTI/TWV0nZKaK0I/AAAAAAAAAFo/qaPBGCnESQk/s72-c/Sketchbook%2Bproject%2B%2528blog%2Blayout%2529.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6313817558964769575.post-3588635105460472245</id><published>2011-01-27T17:16:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-27T17:28:43.901-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='travel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='illustration'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sketchbook'/><title type='text'>The Travelling Sketchbook!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/TUHvHrtqq4I/AAAAAAAAAFc/34FTnzkqYQU/s1600/500x550.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 364px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/TUHvHrtqq4I/AAAAAAAAAFc/34FTnzkqYQU/s400/500x550.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566993529679031170" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Ohhh&lt;/span&gt;-Kay!!!  There is some seriously overdue blogging to be done here!!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So to kick it off, some of you may have noticed the link off to the right for the Sketchbook Project :P  I signed up for this project as a sweet way to self motivate (and get a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;rockin&lt;/span&gt;' shirt :P ) &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;waaaay&lt;/span&gt; back in September/ October and now my book is filled and gone!  Just like that :P  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The project was tons of fun - with lots of experimentation! (Really the best part of keeping a sketchbook :P) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It will be travelling around the US and finding an eventual home in the Brooklyn Art Library.  The happiest surprise was looking at the tour locations and realizing that there are people I know in a few of them that I can wrangle into checking it out! &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Fuuuuuuun&lt;/span&gt;!!!!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'm super excited to post the photos of the book as soon as their done being edited!

&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;crafters&lt;/span&gt; involved such as &lt;a href="http://bblinks.blogspot.com/2007/07/horn-of-plenty-ceramics.html"&gt;Kathy from Horn of Plenty&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/boolahbaguette"&gt;Erin of Boolah Baguette&lt;/a&gt;, and lots more!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have more magnets and holiday cards in the works so come on by and say hello!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6313817558964769575-7852444963590557029?l=shaunabuck.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/feeds/7852444963590557029/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6313817558964769575&amp;postID=7852444963590557029' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/7852444963590557029'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/7852444963590557029'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/2010/11/here-ye-here-ye.html' title='Here Ye, Here Ye!!!'/><author><name>Shauna Buck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07719981933417728872</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='21' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/StNFHER25ZI/AAAAAAAAABU/unBfjh4myEE/S220/IMG_7559+shauna+-+from+above.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/TNRbMFhMaSI/AAAAAAAAAFQ/_CpsfM5b5LM/s72-c/Indie+Craft+Market+Evite+Proof.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6313817558964769575.post-9177335134297721478</id><published>2010-10-29T13:14:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2010-10-29T13:31:09.241-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='festival'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='magnets'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='illustration'/><title type='text'>New illustrated MAGNETS!

Its at 505 10th St, so come on by and check it out!!! It promises to have lots of great local vendors, and I am sharing a table with fellow local illustrator, Amy Cheng!  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So in preparation for this, earlier this week I decided to try my hand at casting resin to make some magnet sets.  I've always wanted to make magnets, but something sturdier then the flat type.  Word of advice: the fumes are REALLY awful.  I would even say dangerously so in a small apartment, that first day, I had to take a loooong walk and leave all the windows open. :P &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But!  The results were worth it!  Suuuuper fun and I am so excited to make more!  Unfortunately, I made a silly mistake with some glue and ruined about 50% of the batch last night.  Of course.  Right before their festival premier today.  Ah well.  You win some you loose some, and now I know what NOT to do on the next round!  And I can't wait to try again!!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6313817558964769575-9177335134297721478?l=shaunabuck.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/feeds/9177335134297721478/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6313817558964769575&amp;postID=9177335134297721478' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/9177335134297721478'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/9177335134297721478'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/2010/10/new-illustrated-magnets-for-cfcr.html' title='New illustrated MAGNETS!

The Saskatoon Fringe Festival started up &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Thursday&lt;/span&gt; the 29&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;, and is running until Saturday the 7&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;!!  My boy-wonder fiancee Stefan and I are both participating, me with a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;smorgasbord&lt;/span&gt; of adorable goodness, and him with some seriously stellar photography that will wow the eyes!  Needless to say the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;lead up&lt;/span&gt; caused our household to be thrown into creating chaos , with supplies and creations covering all surfaces and even creeping up the walls. :P  Full pictures of this megalithic mess, our booth, as well as new work, will be posted later in week or early next, following a bit of recovery death-nap :P  If you're in town, Come check us out down on Broadway!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also,  be on the lookout for another &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;download-able&lt;/span&gt; desktop from yours &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;truly&lt;/span&gt;, coming up this week with Erika &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Brouwer's&lt;/span&gt; newly updated "Canvas Collective" site!

And finally draw that random picture of Jane Fonda I'd been talking about for a while now. :P &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And since Jane Fonda work-outs were the soundtrack to my youth, it was a pleasantly random afternoon that reminded me of home :D  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6313817558964769575-1916163423964266812?l=shaunabuck.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/feeds/1916163423964266812/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6313817558964769575&amp;postID=1916163423964266812' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/1916163423964266812'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/1916163423964266812'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/2010/03/work-it-out-little-mama.html' title='Work it out Little Mama'/><author><name>Shauna Buck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07719981933417728872</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='21' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/StNFHER25ZI/AAAAAAAAABU/unBfjh4myEE/S220/IMG_7559+shauna+-+from+above.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/S5GfjIGzzZI/AAAAAAAAADg/KidYweMP9uU/s72-c/janefonda_web.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6313817558964769575.post-7329228005568512001</id><published>2010-01-18T21:40:00.010-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-24T16:06:42.431-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='maps'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wedding'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='invitations'/><title type='text'>Love is in the Air</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/S1Ucos7N0mI/AAAAAAAAADI/U3tVJoRZETk/s1600-h/IMG_7757.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/S1Ucos7N0mI/AAAAAAAAADI/U3tVJoRZETk/s320/IMG_7757.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428276411444875874" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;And the invitations are done!

Two weeks of constant walking, eating and amazement just passed along with a quick pass through T.O. to say hello and I must say I'm overstimulated, exhausted and have lots to think about. :D  One of the most diverse and informative trips I've ever taken we went from London to Le &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Touquet&lt;/span&gt;, in northern France to Paris.  Each city was &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;completely&lt;/span&gt; different even though at most their only a two hour train ride apart.

I've finally got this blog-business up and going with some fun stuff to post from the holidays.  Being the broke student I am my gifting budget this year was... homemade. &lt;div&gt;So I made my own version of some really sweet vintage map cuff links I saw and they turned out pretty decent!  (Thank you Martha Stewart, you've saved the day again).  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6313817558964769575-4911950510920053008?l=shaunabuck.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/feeds/4911950510920053008/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6313817558964769575&amp;postID=4911950510920053008' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/4911950510920053008'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6313817558964769575/posts/default/4911950510920053008'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shaunabuck.blogspot.com/2009/01/martha-stewart-saves-day.html' title='Martha Stewart Saves the Day!'/><author><name>Shauna Buck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07719981933417728872</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='21' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/StNFHER25ZI/AAAAAAAAABU/unBfjh4myEE/S220/IMG_7559+shauna+-+from+above.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_owu2ehIWjuM/SWlPXkhR9nI/AAAAAAAAAAM/Vbjn4Siwdi8/s72-c/IMG_5626.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
