It's Holiday ornament craft time!
This cute little idea was inspired by a visit to the library.  Tis the season! Tike to get creative - pull out the glue gun - grab the glitter it's time to get crafty! All you really need for this one is scissors, a bit fo glue or glue stick, some hemp string to hang it & I folded it so it would be a neat little sample - shold I decide to give it to someone - you'd have to rib open the "decoration" tho to get at it- oh well! Thats' what Christmas is about! Opening gifts.
It's the thought that should count, Christmas is not a good tim to go into debt.

Trump - Impeached- Well there's a Christmas wish come true - no gifts needed. ;)

Check out the  litttle Jingle decoration below - click on the image to print your own - 
colour own for extra creativity.  *You could also put int a tiny amout of bud to hang for someone on the tree.. weee!  Edibles are legal in Canada this Christmas - have you got yours?  I can only imagine sales & stockings being filled.  Don't hang too close to the fire.

Happy Holidays. 
Seasons Greetings & Merry Christmas 
Have fun - Joy & Peace...     impeachment will help!

It's the long weekend! Tomorrow is Canada day - weeeeeee!
Are you chillin on this lovely weekend? I hope so- we are far from chilling..  we are packing.
Excited is how I'm feeling.. slightly anxious now, so I try to remember to breath, step back and go doodle or paint or color - to relax and ponder rather than slip into panic mode.

Do you like to color? I found these past drawings packing, I did them for the covers of Cannabis Digest a few years ago... I decided to put them up for you to download & color!
Grab your pencils, crayons or paint  & go relax & unwind today..
smoke a joint & enjoy some cannabis coloring fun.

Please do NOT drink & drive this holiday weekend- or anytime. 
Click on the image to DL the PDF to print & color..
If you do- please e mail me an image & I'll send you a postcard- if you want.

A little something for everyone! 
If Storm was home I'd give him the mushroom card: I love you this MUSH! 
The fox - WTFox- lol I don't even know where he came from (not one of my best I must admit).  The Bear I thought would BEE a neat little reminder from someones lunch box one day...    The Canna BE yours? Makes me smile that cute little BEE - a mushroom BOOKmark
because my gift of  LOVE to 'all' is to encourage the gift of reading! 
I'm currently reading:
How to Change your mind (still) & 'loving every page the Canadian History makes me proud!  

It's Valentines day & I LOVE me!  LOL   I've snuggled with the girls, listened to music, played hide & seek & sent Norm an e mail suggesting what would be great for dinner!  With a glass of wine- a craft beer for Norm - cannabis for me & Ice cream for his sweet tooth - I can't wait.  'I' cut my hair (short) - that's ALWAY refreshing!
Yeee Hah - Self love watch out! lol - All kidding aside- we've been together 26 years and have a common LOVE so why not enjoy the evening and acknowledge the love we've had for each other & still do, especially as the parents of our son &  doghters'  hee hee.
Why not- who needs an excuse for a good meal made with love?  
If your single & you LOVE to cook- are'nt you the lucky one tonight!   

Sorry these Valentine are a bit late, it was important that I show myself some love today, 
I imagined a studio barn - big enough I can have the girls run from one end to the other to chase balls - and work off some of this winter restlessness - I remind  them frequently-  Spring is not far NOW!  It's never too late anyway - that's the thing with Valentines day  & I don't agree with is the 'DAY' part.​  IF you NEED a day to tell someone you love them - well,  I guess it's better than not telling them.  I know some people struggle with such issues like saying 'I love you' (& meaning it), I get that too - if your single enjoy treating yourself to something  a little special tonight - WHY wait for someone 'else' to TREAT? 

Use your Valentines anyway - don't forget to tell yourself FIRST.  I Love YOU.
Who needs a day to say I love you? Say, text, email it any day you please, PLEASE! 
No one knows what tomorrow brings... hopefully a funky new fungi painting.  

;)

With MUSH love on this day Universe!

Valentines for beautiful little black girls! 
This idea came to me while  looking at vintage valentines - to try to get a few ideas for cannabis cartoons.. as it happens I stumbled across one of the worst Valentine cards I've ever seen & the only thought to enter my mind is "When  is this EVER o.k.?"
The card mentioned was a 'black faced' little boy with a rope around neck (actual piece of string)  - stating:   Be Ma valentine.. I'll be hanged if you so no.                
It seems black face in general was a "humorous valentine" - topic... why I don't understand.
Who the fuck drew that? How was that EVER o.k. in anyones mind- never mind the person who signed it,  as a card creator I can't even fathom making such a card. I believe cards  make people happy, spread joy - make us laugh & yes many are rude but this is simply racist nasty, hatred.  It broke my heart to think that actually was seen by people never mind  enjoyed by someone...  & how would little kids feel who saw it? Black children? 

If you don't understand the hype around Gucci's black face sweater - or blackface- do some research, it's black history month so the timing is PERFECT for education!  Google images - or PIN even - black face images were used to 'make fun' of  others and most are seen in a very derogatory way - The person capable of creating such a card(s) is racist & ignorant. Then after looking for a bit- I noticed how few black children are ever portrayed in valentines at all - in art! Remember the fun sheets we had as kids, sure there are animals, cats. dogs, rockets but very few black children. I always had black friends growing up in Toronto, I don't remember what valentine they would have got, although I was big on cartoon characters - so it was probably Wilma or Betty... still. 
WTF? 

I've created some valentines for beautiful little black girls to receive & give from other little black girls or white girls to give their black friends -(boys too of course)  It's ABOUT LOVE
All shades.   These little beautiful ladies are so cute- I enjoyed drawing them, painting them and will paint more. I was intreguided to learn of all the hair styles & the fact hair is such a hot topic, for example i LOVE  afro hair I think is adorable and stunning on adults - men & women  I never realized the issues around it.  Black Hair braiding IS a FINE art - I can't even imagine how long some of these hair styles take. 

Such ignorance can't be erased from the past- I guess it's good we realize it finally & hopefully CHANGE - Children never deserve to be dragged into ADULT politics or judgement.  

Happy Valentines day! I love kids- all kids, all shades - they are the most creative beings I've even been fortunate to work with on this planet- the best thing I can do is CHANGE this Valentine situation - starting with the sheet for Beautiful little Black Girls!

​ - Spread the love.

Crafting, coloring & creating are all opportunities to make memories & teach, what better  time to teach about cannabis, Christmas, natural medicine & more.
Here are some  decorations you  can color, use for gift tags,  attach some string & make a garland or hang them on the tree. Cut out & color each one, stick on a bigger piece of paper to create custom cards. I've even included a mushroom  - a very popular tree decoration in Europe - it is a wonderful introduction to talk about reindeer, wild mushrooms & NEVER eating a mushroom unless you are positive it is safe.

If you bake, clearly mark your edibles to avoid any confusion during the holiday & safely keep away from children & pets.  Just over a week away & Christmas will be here.
​Happy Holidays.

Not mine.. that's pushing it. I think people who already have the tree up are pushing it- lol We do have the outside tree- it has to go up before too much snow but my inside tree does not go up until the weekend... so much to do!  

I just found out (from Alexa) it's  #giving Tuesday! I'm giving my time & skills already.. 
Today I'm teaching another friend how to paint! I'm on a mission- put more painters on the planet..  and starting new canvas. I've also been commissioned to draw a few- DOGS for Christmas gifts - one for a Bulldog in a barber shop- you know that's going to be fun ;) This cold, wet weather has been difficult on my bones - Thank God for Legal Cannabis or there would be less painting & more napping & I'm also baking medicate carrot cake today, someone I care about seriously hurt themselves & I don't want anyone using addictive 'pain pills' for an extended time.. besides how can anyone resist my carrot cake? ;)

What are you giving? Have fun!

TODAY is #giving Tuesday! I'm giving this original away on Instagram to someone who comments & tags a bud who might be interested,  it can easily be framed (not included) with a frame you PU at any store that offers frames for about $20.  * IT can not get wet- or it will ruin. Please remember this IF you win it.  I'll choose the winner when I wake and announce it in the a.m..   ​What can you give today?
Smiles count so does time, love, listening... 

When I do hang the stockings - I do hope Santa puts some bud in them this year!! Woo Hoo! Legal in Canada- You KNOW there's going to be many a stocking filled with cannabis in Canada this year & many to come!

​Check out Ginger - she absolutely  loves Daisy.... & Daisy loves her. 

How did my day start? In pain but mentally in a great mood,  my arthritis in my feet has them beyond ever fitting into normal shoes again...  on go the slippers (I have 6 pair of the same)  & I ventured down stairs (ouch) and my hands being sore too & not exercised/warmed up yet my iPad slipped out of my hand and on the ceramic tile kitchen floor.  Shattered  puts it mildly - I got slivers from that last instagram post - lol.
​ I sighed & decided it was time to make edibles. 

Kat knows I love my maple syrup- I am one of those who can really have it on everything - she brought me a can of light last visit - I told her 'I like it like I like my men - dark!'  hee hee *I admire all shades of gentlemen. This time she bought me a can of Dark - 2 cans! I had to make something. I found this easy no bake recipe on PIN and made them myself -altered.
I made them medicated and they are delicious!  So then I decided to bring up another to paint - -lol & ate if before I was finished sketching! I'm experienced enough to KNOW I won't  eat another  for color reference until later tonight. This is me high btw. I'd say 'very high - a smile on this face and,  dogs in my lap - gonna go nap.  A NAP is what I need. This time thing has thrown me and I look  tired & lately I don't sleep much - so a nap is what I need. Thankfully this will do it, it will help me fall asleep.    

4 ingredients- one being medicate coconut oil*  It's easy enough to make & it is LEGAL for you to make yourself some edibles and have them in your home  in CANADA **IF you have kids TAKE precautions please - the first being have a conversation with them about  cannabis & clearly label them 'Do NOT eat'. Norm's learned his lesson - he never just tries stuff any longer. (I think to myself as I realize - my twitch is so good right now- thank you God) 

This made 20 squares 8x8 dish and  the average person or newbie would be fine with 1/2 a square.  & this may be different depending on the strength of your cannabis oil! Always test.  My tolerance is HIGH. <Name of next painting,  they will stay in the freezer - not for long I imagine. TRY it and then remember to WAIT, set a timer do you feel high? If not have  a little more - have plans to :DO NOTHING but RELAX. Chill. Please, for your sake - do not mix cannabis & alcohol... I believe alcohol is a depressant & cannabis a antidepressant - for me -anyhow.  The recipe is below - it is that easy  *says me who burnt the chocolate 2 - TWICE yesterday & then gave up, hahaha... today I watched a video on melting chocolate- got it, 'low heat' - not boiling.

I don't own a cell phone so my social media will be very limited until I get my iPad fixed! Hopefully I'll get it in soon - this mean- I'll be painting even more!! Weeeeeee!
​After the nap. 
I'm giving a friend a couple of these squares for her very bad back (several surgeries) because I care for her, and the recipe card so she can make her own from now on because- IT IS LEGAL!! In Canada.  Thank you Justin, thank you all. 

Download the card (link below) & bake a friend a treat or just invite yourself to tea ;)

With TLC & THC A Recipe from Me!

I love pockets! They are so handy, you can fill them full of love like in this card!
Valentine card # 3.  I've really enjoyed making these cards with the intent to have others make them.  It's not that difficult!  Explore your creative side &  I've mad it easy for you- fear free! ! I was sent an image from a young woman who made the 'Honey jar card in DE!  It turned out terrific and she made it herself (without the printout) with my instruction,  with feeling so crummy it really came at the perfect moment. Nice to see & it gave me a little boost - I had to make the pocket card which has been in my mind for over a week. 

It was a lovely way to spend a Saturday - it took me longer with this cold' but I feel worse when I don't paint so I decided to try & then the next thing I know it was complete  and I felt accomplished and ready for my next nap! lol  This card was fun, make your own, use my template.. It's really easy to paint the front, it's more or less shades of blue pointed with a BIG brush then some lines with a finer brush and a bit of red. You would only need to buy  2 colors- because  you can make the darker shaded by mixing the two to get a purple :D  Below is the image containing the pocket contents!
Print it out, cut them out and put them in your pocket! 
Have fun! - What might you leave out or add in?  
I'd include a real joint for fun too-  thats the idea behind the card you could add a gift card, stickers, cash - anything that's slightly 'flat'. I'm keeping this card! It looks cute on my desk! 

See below to see how to make this card! Share with someone you love or try to make one for yourself!  I hope what ever your plans you have a LOVELY day!   & btw- Im continuing to make cards filled with love all month  & all share another soon - I've been busy with some fun templates- wait until you see how creative 'You' can be!

​The free download printable "pocketstuff"  image is below!
Supplies I used:  
Water color blank cards (and envelope)
paper for pocket goodies (or printed version*)
Print and glue onto cardboard first for extra strength! 
Gouache paint:  red & blue  You can use any pant  or supplies- I suggest red & blue ;)
paint brushes 1 large flat and one small detail.
scissors,  white craft glue

!! I realize the condom was an after thought!   I've been married 26 years people. 
The condom was an after thought..   so just add the REAL deal!
​Which is much better than the sentiment anyway!  xox G  

Nothing says loving like something homemade!  Crafts, cards - so why should cannabis be any better?  Giving someone a jar of your bed preserved home grown bud would be telling them you love them and then some!  You want them to be happy, relaxed.. inspired  - healthy.  Here is another VALENTINE card for you to make and give - the great thing is - you could give anything from bud,  candy, medicated cookie, shatter... diamonds -preyty much anything that will fit in a baggie'.

Below is the actual image you can download & print  OR make your own from scratch!
It's not as hard as it looks - the hardest part was the painting (easy for me), *thank you to my son for the cutting work.  I highly reccomend you glue your paper to thin cardboard or use a good quality 'card stock'- I buy my blank cards by the box (bulk lol) from DeSerres (Canadian craft supply store- free delivery & competitive prices)  Water color quality, complete with envelopes... so when ever I feel that need to create cards - it's there! I'm enjoying this card making session-  wait until you see the next.

Steps for the Mason Jar card:

-print out card on card stock or glue your print out to thin cardboard, empty cereal boxes work great for this.
-Carefully cut out inside of jar around edges *these steps are in the photos below.
Green slice Matt & cutter from dollarstore or staples.
-glue the cut out part of the card 'only the sweetest..'  to the inside  of the card- *make sure you place it so that you can see it  when the card is closed.
-place a small baggie and glue- tape (glue would not hold on its' own)  it as you see in the photo, both sides and the bottom, when the card is closed it should look like 'clear glass'.
-fill your card with TLC & THC!

Sign your card- date the back, put it in an envelope - pain on a few hearts to tie it all together, a bit of twine would take it up a notch ' Have fun!  Think Love.

 You can add cannabis/medicated for your adult friends/lover/mate  
NOT medicated for the kids. Please take care with delicious tasting goodies. 
The baggies could be filled with many creative ideas- I think it would make a nice packaging idea by the way for a dispensary,  I know many don't have the creative marketing budgets some of these big places have so get creative!   

*I purposely did not paint cannabis on this card - so a kids could make it for their friends (with some adult supervision)  and fill it with healthy treats for their friends!  It's all about
Love.

Have fun!   I have one more card idea!! It's titled 
You've got all I need! We still have time right?  I love the creative side...
I don't go for this 'Valentines DAY' stuff-  Show me love all the time not just one day of the year or not at all.  It should not require a DAY on a calendar for anyone to express love to anyone...  I will admit - it is a good time to 'take a chance for romance!' as  many have 'Amour on the brain.  

I hope you enjoyed this card - to the point of creating one yourself - if you do send me a photo- I'll send you a postcard. ;)    The next card is a print out as well, one more before  Valentines day so you have time to get your cards created! 
​

Love is in the air!  It's February and I'm making valentines! 'A little early  -you might add.
YES! I have to make it early so I can share it with you - in time for you to make one too!
This little card turned out better than I expected- it made me smile when i was complete and - it actually worked! 

Roses are Red Cannabis is green- this is the cutest little 'canancard game' I've ever seen!
Spin the centre & You'll see - who your Valentine Bud  is to be! Hee Hee Hee
A interactive card - Let's Play!
Not sure how you'll spend Valentine day? I've taken some of the guess work out for you!
Give it a spin- start your evening with what the Canna Wheel suggests- heck spin until you sample them all!  Once complete- I found myself spinning just for fun, Storm was impressed and gave it a spin too.  The best part of this Valentines Day Card- YOU don't need a partner! Make it and 'play with yourself.   ;)   Show yourself some love.

I' have included the Free Download links below - click on the link  to print it in color or black & white. 

I painted my card on water color paper- so it is stronger...  
If you are printing yours I do suggest these steps:

1. Print your card
2.Color your card
3.Glue the entire sheet to a piece of cardboard- an empty cereal box would do
4.Let it dry over night
5.Cut it out and assemble as in the steps below.

Supplies needed:  Scissors, white glue, crayons, pencil crayons, paint   & one Brad (found at craft supply stores & the dollar store- IF you don't have  a brad'  use some string with knots tied to hold it into place.

By gluing your paper to cardboard it will make your card stronger and spin easier.  I have included the version you can color yourself & the colored version to print if you wish.
Come on Give it a Spin! Have some loving creative fun!

* Make this card,  then  #cannaspincard your photo on Instagram with @georgia.toons  or IG in a message & I'll mail you out a set of postcards for playing along & anyone who tries will  also be entered into a draw for a free  original - inspired by and filled with LOVE.
​Only those reading this message here  will know of this contest.  Don't forget when it hits 1000 a big original goes to someone following. That simple.

​*Offer ends at the end of this month. Feb 2018.   You can see my spinner spin on my IG account (if you follow) my account is currently 'Private.   Why? It's just the mood I am in, I also do not automatically follow those who follow, it is not personal  ;) it get's too distracting & I can't keep up & I am using IG as my main source of Social media & way to communicate with some 'real friends'... but i do look at others pages who follow & thank you for your support btw.  Sometimes I contact strangers on IG and ask them if they want an original (like I did with Holly & you will see who's next - I've offered a free logo to a young woman who is setting a lovely example on IG.
