So Cute...

I have an adorable little card made with a sweet little girl from C.C. Designs, however, I am having trouble getting my stupid picture uploaded. You know, not having my home computer set up is for the birds.  I am dieing without my computer...I NEED IT TO LIVE! My regular home computer is on the fritz - in case you were wondering. It needs help and my life is on that computer in so many ways. I can't wait for my computer geek hubs to get it fixed so that I can get my pictures  off and uploaded. For now...you all will have to wait for me to unveil my cute little card....and my little easter box.....and my other cute little card. ;-(  So sad...bad computer!

Maggies!!

Ok, so I now know what it is like to be an addict! No, I'm not talking anything bad...totally harmless really - well except in your checkbook! I'm talking about the wonderful world of Magnolias. So as you can see by the date of my last post, I have still been blog looking, but not blog writing! In my blog searches I came across those cute little mouthless magnolias. I have to say, something drew me to those cute little moutheless wonders. Could it be because I have a 5 year old who has been nicknamed by the kids in her class "Chatterbox". Hrmm...maybe that is why I love those Maggies soooooo much.

Anyways, I found this wonderful resource www.simonsaysstamp.com and they carry many, many lines of stamps. I put in my first order...and waited. Then it came! My little maggies (along with a slew of others..shhhh don't tell hubs) Before I get into the maggies, did I mention that I have also been converted to a Copic person. Oh yes....I am adding to my Copics quite rapidly actually. I'm still practicing but I'm getting a handle on the blending. Love them! So my new little images came and what happens, nope...no time last weekend to play. It's just not fair....

But, luckily I get together with a wondeful group of ladies about every 3 months and we have what we have termed a "Craft-a-thon". We all make a card, box or whatever and bring enough for everybody (there is usally an avg of 8-10 of us) and we all get to demonstrate our item. We have such a great time. We usually start about 9 a.m., have a little breakfast then get stamping. We break mid-day and have lunch and dessert then resume stamping. We have been doing this for about 4 years now.

So, before I got to play with my first order (yes first, because of course there was a second order!!) My second order came in time for this past week. I played, oh yes I played! All I can say is, I'm in love with all my new stamps. They are wonderful!

I also invested in some Prisma Color pencils. I bought the box of 36. I told a friend that I really only wanted 24, that 36 was most definitely overkill. She said, nah it's not overkil....she was so right. I now own 54 of those little guys too. (I did mention that I have an addiction at the beginning of this post, right?)

So this weekend I colored away.......it was a good weekend. That's all I have to say about that. I will just sit and wait for my 3rd order of maggies (yes, you read correctly....3 orders in oh about 3 weeks.) I need MA - Magnolias Anonymous.

Addicted to Blogs?

Yes, I think that I am. Lately that's all that I do. I sit at my computer and spend hours upon hours not writing in my own blog (why would I do that!), I'm reading other peoples blogs! I have been amazed at what people blog about. Not only am I amazed, but I have learned SO much from their blogs! Thank you blog land for showing me the light! haha

Maybe later if you all are nice I will post some of the cool things that I have learned, made and created over the last few weeks. No, I can't take credit for the idea....but I did put my own spin onto things! So I should get credit for that!

Hrmmm

Strange...I know I have blogged since Feb....I must not have hit save! Haha Oh well.

Anyways....I just got back from Las Vegas with my girlfriends. We stayed at the Mirage, went to the Piano bar, Jet Nightclub, Napoleons (at Paris), Tao for dinner (excellent), Tao Nightclub (cool club) and saw the Phantom of the Opera (love it). It was so much fun that I am already anticipating my next trip out to Vegas or wherever.

Workshop!

So I'm having a workshop this evening. I actually had alot of people who wanted to come and had to turn some away. It's nice to have so many but I hated turning some away. It should be fun though. We are doing 5 projects. I hope. If time doesn't allow for it, we may not get to the scrapbook page. We shall see tonight. So we are making a treat box out of coasters, 3 cards and a scrapbook page. If I get some free time maybe I will post pictures later. However, I will probably not get home until after 10 and have to pack my scrapbooking stuff for tomorrows all day crop, which I am not really looking forward to at the moment. I know when I get there I will have a good time but I would really rather stay at home and just watch movies.

Zack and Miri make a porno is out. That was one of the funniest movies I have seen in a very long time. I would love to be home tomorrow and just hang out with Chris and watch a movie. Instead I will be sitting in an uncomfortable chair trying to make a scrapbook page to enter into the page layout contest. Oh well....

last final

I'm taking my last final today! I can not wait!! Then I get like 11 weeks of freedom from school. Barry classes start in March....then back to the grind it is.

school

I see a light at the end of the tunnel. School will be over with in 2 weeks. It can not come quick enough. I am happy to say that after many years, many many years, I will finally have something from school. Yes, it's only a 2 year degree, but it is a degree and I am happy for that. So I will get a few weeks off of school and then in January I will start back but at Barry University. I am pretty excited about that though I would have liked a longer break from school.

facebook..

I have become a facebook addict. I just can't stop checking it and chatting on it.....it's an addiction. I need help! ;-))))))
