Found 12 Cents and Made Some Cactus

Today I ran a bunch of errands and lucky for me, I spotted some money! 

• First I found a penny in the street, well, it was really in the gutter, but close enough!
• Then I found another penny on a bench as I was walking on a sidewalk on the way to the grocery store!
• And finally in the grocery store, I pawed in the change tray of the copier and out fell a dime! Right on the floor. I snapped it up and went on my way!

I posed them next to some cactus I made. Have you found any money lately?

And on another note, I was asked by Zazzle to write about their iPhone 6 cases. Do you know about Zazzle? On their website, it's described as "a community marketplace where you can collaborate with makers and designers to make almost anything" and that includes iPhone 6 cases!

Here are some fun iPhone cases from one of my favorite designers, EMangl. He is a talented graphic artist and photographer and makes some wonderful designs including pink breast cancer designs, fun elephant (and lots of other animal) designs, Mozart, and Mona Lisa to name a few!

Found Three Pennies Today

Today I went to the post office, the library, and the grocery store. I found a penny in some rocks by chance while walking to the post office. I'm really surprised I saw it because it was dirty and the same brown as the rocks. It makes me think we walk by or over or on money all the time!

Then at the grocery store I found two pennies in two different spots. Yay! I love find money even if it's just pennies.

Zazzle is offering some new products. I've been having fun today making up some. Ping pong anyone?

Found Another 11 Cents

This morning I went out with Scarlett like I usually do. She walks to the grassy area to nibble on it (then she usually throws up later, which she did, but it was outside. Yay!). As I was just standing there minding my own business, I saw a penny in the rocks! Amazing! 

Then later I ran to the post office then to get my hair cut. No money. Then I went to Fresh and Easy. I spotted this dime on the floor in front of one of the check out lanes. Love finding money! 

Just the other day I found 11 cents. What a coinky dink that I found that amount again today!

I posed the money next to some vintage trim that I've been using on some Zazzle products. Here is one of them:

Took a Walk and Found Two Pennies

This evening I headed out and took a little walk. I walked a different route than usual and walked down a street lined with palm trees. It's really pretty (I mean, that's the only good part but it's nice, especially from a distance). 

As I was walking along, I saw a penny in the street near the gutter. Then I walked on and went to the office building parking lot I got to a lot and found another penny there. 

I've been making more Zazzle products using scans of vintage handkerchiefs. Here is one I really like:
