Walking in a Bloggy Wonderland
Yes that is snow on mr Fox’s coat………. its snowing again…. how badly this time??? Well have a looksie at this blurry piccy..
Its an action shot……..see the snow!! I promise to get a nice shot of the snow in the morning for you all….
The strange neon snakes in the background are the lights of Glasgow…. and it was REALY REALY COLD… I was shivering as you can see….
Anyway…. today we sent the next lot of images to Sugar Nellie for the 2nd pack of stamps… now we think these are even better than the first pack, we obviously still want to see your creations with the first pack as well as hear your feedback.
NEW BAG (not my bag, baby)
Its the smaller bag size with a gorjuss little rabbit on it… we did feed the foxes before this photo to avoid any nasty foxy shenanigans…. these will be available in both shops soon… so please check it awt… (och no, not more accent competitions).. I also have to let you know that we have ordered more cotton bags to deal with the demand for these products, its been a huge success thank you to you all.
I cant wait to see these bags in supermarkets near us….
In other news for this week, a new hair cut is on the horizon for both Suzanne and I… thursday I think its the day of reckoning… its been a while since our last one, and we have raised funds to pay this hair cut fee by returning glass bottles to the local corner shop. We will of course put some piccies up… my question is this….
COMIC RELIEF (RED NOSE DAY) 2009
Comic relief takes place on March 13th this year, they encourage people to do funny things to raise funds, so I thought what the heck, what wild and crazy ideas do you have? I would consider something in reasonably good taste… if you guys are willing to make donations to the charity….. Maybe a particular hair cut? or Colour…. or maybe you have something sicker in mind, maybe a special gorjuss girl with a red nose… who knows… I am leaving the suggestions to you.
I thought a 24hr Chat would be a good idea, but frankly the conversation would be wearing thin as the hours drag on….
So come on be creative…………. for now I shall sign off and leave the last word to Mr Fox… (I called him Mr Fox… I don’t care if she is a she……. its Mr Fox to me…..)..
Yeah, I do not know if we could take 24 hours of you Grant!! Hehehehe
Yikes that’s a lot of snow! That puts the bit we had here in Virginia to shame!
A 24-hour chat? Can you imagine the silliness and shenanigans that would ensue when the Gorjuss-ettes get punchy from lack of sleep? Sounds like fun!
Love the new bunny bag!
XO
Oh and I am trying to find some time to play with my gorjuss stamps. I hope to have some cards done tomorrow which I will share! I did post a bit about them on my blog:
http://sweetteaandpickles.blogspot.com/
They are wonderful!
The snow actually looks like rain in that pic….and you can keep it…I can’t wait for SPRING!
New bag is adorable 🙂
I’m stuck in a rut for my own hair so have no suggestions 🙁
I DID get my new Gorjuss stamps yesterday…..now to figure out what to do with them. Didn’t realize they’d be all on one sheet like they are….I am SO green around the edges! LOL
Okay, I am already punch drunk and we didn’t even start chatting.
I kniht ew dluohs epyt sdrawkcab lla yad.
did i yas taht?
Beth, that was an EXCELLENT post on your stamps! THANKS. Left you a message there too. Can’t wait to see and hear about your cards tomorrow.
Now to find EZ Mount…LOL
OH….and I forgot to mention before…I LOVE those foxes!!!
We got hail the size of M&M’s this morning. Loud stuff pounding on the house. Thank goodness it didn’t last too long. The electricity flickered too! And I had to shut down my PSP along with the rest of the computer. Sheesh. The nerve of the weather interrupting my creativity.
I did receive my stamps yesterday. Now to get them trimmed. I must call on my dear sweet friend who is a stamp manufacturer and borrow her commercial tools. Good thing she got back into town last night from a rubber stamp show or I’d have to break into her house this week. LOL
A 24-hour chat? Well, I’m sure we all could handle it, but the chat room might not be able to handle us? Hee hee hee
Grant this is just a idea.
What about 1-3 Different images with Red Noses, a set of Charity ones limit time and priced at $2 each.
I know l would donation towards it and if you dont wont to deal with the money side arrange a link ppl pay and issue you with a receipt as proof then they get the images.
I would say you could raise $400>>>> up. Hoping for $800 lol.
What ever Gorjuss will be able to donate a large cheque and great pr.
Hugs lee xx
I say a gorjuss girl with FANGS! Auction it off to raise some money. The funny part would be the people trying to outbid the other to get their grubby little paws on it…hehehehe
ok grant how about a torso wax? lol
i would sponsor you to hear ya scream like a girl lol
I’m with Lorna on that one LOL
Love red noses!!!! he he he!!!
Fangs and red noses and torso wax, oh my!!!
Who has more fun that us? : )
That should be…who has more fun THAN us? : P
OH Chat Sat. was a blast and a 24 hour one whoo hooo I could do it lol,
I think it is wonderful you are thinking up something to do for the fund raiser
cant WAIT to see what you decide on!
Beth congrats on the win that is wonderful! the stamps are amazing, Looks
like I may be taking up a new craft hehehe
hmmm fangs ………I have to say love the idea,

Mr G. I really would LOVE to see one of Suzanne’s Girls as a clown (red nose)
I KNOW it would be just stunning. and I KNOW that everyone would run to have it
clowns can signify happiness and sadness, and I know I would use it so much!
if not in tube form in print form or as a key chain or bag!
really there are people that collect clowns and definatly would want one!
smiles

I think it would be cute to see a few Gorjuss boys(maybe a set) dressed up as clowns with big red noses..I would love to see more boy images.. Maybe a set of a boy and a girl in clown suits with red noses… And maybe a background of trees with big red noses on..LOL
HUGZ
Marlene
Oh Marlene I LOVE the idea of a set of boys! Great idea!!!
Oh wow love the idea of a Boy/Girl set dressed as Clowns with Red noses plus you could add your Foxes with Red Noses as their Circus friends.
Hugs, Jo
Ok, how about this….
Shave your legs and dress up as a lady? Maybe wear a leotard and tutu?
Give me time I will think of more lol
Oh Kim, If there are any fangs involved, you better leave your mitts off them, lol hehehehehehe
Sandy Im looking for something out of the ordinary to do!!! sheesh
And Lorna I have yet to hit puberty in the chest dept… I am smoother than an imac’d gooseberry.
I think i need to get creative 🙂
March 13 is also my birthday! Waht a wonderful event for that day, can’t think of anything more fun! I think a red nose girl is a wonderful idea! Especially since it is my birthday, would be a wonderful gift to buy for myself.:-)
I love the idea Marlene had about the clowns especially.:-)
Ok Grant, since they encourage people to do funny things, how about this:
You dress up in a fox costume, get / wear a purple wig & big red clown nose. THEN…go through the town shops asking for donations for your favorite charity! That would have to be a hoot to see that pic, lol! And yes..you would have to have Suzanne take some pics so we could see you hehehe! Of course, I would even donate to your cause for a chance to see those crazy pics! Angelwolf
Ok fine how about….
You dress up like Batman and tell everyone you are Christian Bale??
Ok ok just kidding…
How about walking around in a town and kissing everyone you see? I am sure you getting smacked a few times will make me laugh, hehehehehe
Ugh you know what I just cant be creative under all this pressure. Good luck with an idea!!!!
One last thought, maybe…
You mentioned you thought you might make a good tube set.
Maybe we could create six different names of tubes for you.
Something like:
Image 1 Mr. G meets the largest computer
Image 2. Mr. G puts new ink in the printer
Make your first (or second) your best entry.

Isn’t that Fox just so cute?
As for Comic Relief how would you feel about having an auction of some sort on the blog? Perhaps with all the money going to Comic Relief or half to CR and half to Suzanne if she is going to be creating something especially for the occasion.
It could be for something silly such as one of Suzanne’s stripey socks (as long as it was washed lol) or a special little one off ACEO that was dedicated to Red Nose Day?
Or an auction to win a one off tube of your pet? Last but not least an African or UK themed tube pack maybe with just 4 tubes or something,they could feature animals you would find in Africa or even little African boys and girls? The African idea sprang to mind since a majority of the money raised goes to Africa.
Just an idea or 5 or 6 lol
