Bows

The past two days I have been making bows like crazy. It's so fun! I bought and thrifted a bunch of fabric last week. Im hoping to sell them at the Fan Expo and then online maybe?

Do you like big or small bows?

Photo an hour - February 23th

It's my first Photo an hour post! (Yay) I've been trying to do one of these for the longest time but I always forget. Anyways this is what I did yesterday...

8AM

Start my day off with a walk around the block with Cap. Then I shower and eat some breakfast.

9AM

I relax a bit and finish watching 'But I'm a Cheerleader' on Netflix.

10AM

I bought some window sticky things over the weekend and decide to put them up now. Then I sweep a little too.

11AM

Check my email and catch up on some blogs while I have a little snack.

12PM

I get some dishes done and clean a bit more around the apartment.

1PM

I start making my galaxy shirt and play with Captain while I wait for the first side to dry.

2PM

Pogo's for lunch while I watch 'Family Guy'. Yum. And some more playing around with Cap.

3PM

Start a little sewing project while I watch 'Stand by Me'.

4PM

I decide I really like how the shirt turned out so I lay out some more fabric. Then I watch 'Hatchi' while the fabric dries.

5PM

I take Cap out for his long walk of the day and have some avocado when I get back home.

6-7PM

I keep sewing some more while I watch 'The Countess' and have some dumplings for dinner around 7.

After that I put some 'Family Guy' on and edit photos for the rest of the night. I know I have such an exciting life.

Actionsampler GIF's 2

A few more GIFs. :]

I love this shot of cap running through the water.

I like seeing him run around with a buddy.

People crossing the street.

Cap loves to dig. First thing he does when we hit the sand or snow, he digs!

Jump Captain, Jump.

Some silly pictures of Captain jumping.

'This is how you do it.'

I saved the best for last. Did you miss my silly GIF's?
Happy Monday! :]

New Camera!

I got myself a new camera. No, not another film camera. (well, I did but it isn't working.) I upgraded from my Pentax *ist DL to a Pentax K-r and it's so awesome, I love it! So I just want to show off my new camera and what it can do. This post is very picture heavy. :]

I went a little camera-happy and just took a whole bunch of pictures of Captain when I got home from the store.

I took a lot of pictures the next day around our apartment. This is my new pink frame, I hope I find more in the future.

A shot of my fotoclip wall.

Just some of our movies.


Captain got bored... So we went for a walk.

You can see the snow fluff! My old camera wouldn't be able to do that unless I used the flash.

Love this shot, Look how happy Captain is!

And we made our way to the beach.

There were a lot of people there walking their dog's too but I got a few shots like this with no people. :]


Look at the pretty colours!

I'm so glad I got my camera. I can see such a big difference in the quality alone. My new camera has a bunch cool settings too. I can't wait to take it to the Zoo!! I'm hoping to go within the next month or two.

Now I just have to try to sell or pawn my old camera off but no pawn shop wants it. They all said it was too old?! (It's only 5 maybe 6 years old) I thought pawn shops were supposed to buy your old stuff? One guy offered $60... are you kidding me? :[

Actionsampler GIF's

Happy friday!
It's been a while since I made and posted some actionsampler photo GIF's!

I was trying to be cool and get a shot of the mushrooms in mid air. Well, you get the idea.

I have no clue...it was windy?

Cap found a buddy! Look at his cute tail. :]

... I'm dizzy.

Some more film

There is something about getting a roll of film developed and not knowing (or remembering) what's on it. :]
These are a few of my favourites from a couple of rolls that I had developed recently. Sadly one of the rolls had all blurry pictures, taken with the camera my Grandpa gave me. But i'll try again!


Pretty sure this was taken with my Capital. I was on a train, going home. Love the clouds.

I love my actionsampler. Love it. The pictures are never 'good' pictures but they are just so awesome. This was taken last summer at the dog park.

I don't remember taking this one or why, maybe I just wanted a shot of the sky?

This one was also taken last spring/summer. Walking home from a friends house.

I have so many shots like this at the dog park, it's not even funny.

If you're interested, there are a few more on my flickr.

Juice Box Photos

Over the break I finished off my first roll of the Juice Box Camera. I noticed a lot of the pictures turned out a bit dark. Probably because it hasn't been sunny at all. (but I kept taking pictures anyways) The few pictures I took in the day time, when it was sunny came out awesome though! They all have these sweet light leaks on the left side of the photos.

"Hey. Hey Cap, I wanna take your picture. Look at me! Hey! Cap. Cap. Captain! Caaaap!"
p.s. Just so you know, that's not a muzzle. It's a dog leader.

Early in the morning. Heading to work, I think.

At the park.

At the dog park again. The colours over the water look so pretty.
I might put the Juice Box away for now. I will, for sure be using it like crazy over the warmer months though!

Happy New Year!

Just wanted to stop by and say Happy New Year! Here's some of the instax we took last night.

Believie it or not. That picture, is our first family photo. Crazy, we've had Captain for almost a year and never took a family photo. (we had to hold him still) We'll what better time to do it then on New Years Eve!

That glare in the second instax is my hand. oops. :]

Happy 1st Birthday, Captain!

It's Captain's birthday!

His first birthday, he has come a long way. Captain didn't come with any papers when we got him and we didn't think to ask his past owner. All we knew was that he was about 3 months old at the time we got him. So he was born some time in December. We 'officially' made his birthday on Christmas day, but I'm going to celebrate and post some photos up of him, with some fun facts today! :]

One big thing I regret was not taking more photos of him when he was a puppy. He was so little and thin. He was sick, I don't know if his last owner knew he was sick or if they knew and thats why they sold him to us. (Maybe that's why, I didn't want to get too attached to him because if he was seriously sick we wouldn't be able to keep him. But thankfully he just needed some pills and love.) For those of you who don't know. Captain had ring worms, which makes you poop blood and your poops all runny. He was also pretty dirty and skinny. The bloody poops are what freaked me out the most. I thought he was dying, I thought we bought a dying dog, someone found out he was sick and sold him... I was so sad and mad but it was treatable and he got better after a few weeks.

Anyways... this is the very first picture I took of him, in our old apartment, that didn't allow dogs. Haha.

A shot of him at my boyfriend's parents house, playing with their dogs. He had such a little neck for a long time, he could easiler slip out of his collar.

Yep, he's got a bit of an attitude. Even then he thought he was the boss. He likes to steal toys.

Captain likes his treats, but usually not dog treats. He is a picky eater, maybe from being so sick for who knows how long...so we have to get special food for him. For the first few months we didn't know what kind of dog food to feed him because he wouldn't eat that much, throw up a lot and his poops weren't normal. (like pudding or jello) But the vet helped us and now it's all good.

Loves to play. Of course all dogs do. He gets so excited sometimes he runs from the bedroom to the living room. He jumps on the bed and on our couch and ends up pushing both of them against the wall since we don't have carpets. Cute but annoying...

A very quick action shot, he was pretty hyper cause I was calling him and running around the apartment with him. I know it's not really focused or a nice picture but I like it. Reminds me of how silly he is.

When I found this picture on my camera I laughed so hard. I love when his tongue hangs out like that. One word. Derp.

This is where Captain likes to sleep and and eat his treats during the day. (which I hate cause he's messy.) We have a futon and a couch. The futon is old so he's allowed to go on it. He likes to prop his head up like that. sometimes he'll come over, lean on the futon and put his head on my foot or leg. Oh I wish I had a picture of how he 'sits' on the futon. He'll sit with his back legs on the futon but his front legs are still on the floor. He's like half sitting, half standing. So funny looking.

Looks like he's laughing. One of the many faces of Captain. I like how he looks without his collar on. We like to take it off on weekends to give him a break.

Sup. See how far apart his elbows are? He has always laid down like that. I used to think maybe he had something broken.

His favourite toy would probably have to be anything made of rope or string. He's got like three rope toys. He loves his tug-o-war. He likes to bring the rope right to you, drop it on your crotch and just stares at it until you move it. And you have to move it, I mean it's a smelly, wet, rope... on your crotch.

Sometimes when he closes his mouth, some skin hes stuck under his teeth I guess and he gets this weird bump. When this happens, he likes to stare at you.

Coming in from a walk or from the bedroom maybe?

This is the living room window, he likes to people watch. He started doing this maybe a month or two ago. He used to stand up on it with his front paws but I guess he got lazy and now he kind of...rests on the window/heaters? Sometimes I look out the window with him and there's no one outside...

I left this picture of Capatin for last because I love it so much. Not too long ago and just took a bunch of pictures of Captain for about an hour. (excuse our messy bedroom) This is a great action shot of Captain jumping on our bed. I wish I had more but they were always of him landing or just about to take off.

Happy 1st Birthday Capatian. Cap. Cappy. Cap-attack. Cap-a-roo. Cap-a-lack. Cap-e-taaan.

P.S. I hope you learn how to walk better on the leash. :]
