I Can't Stop


I always say I'm not going to try any new craft mediums and yet here I go again. I've been into paper crafting lately and have started making hang tags. Once you start the ideas just keep coming... I made some in this color with this stamp, oh wouldn't this look cute in this color and maybe a little glitter here and there and one of these on here, and before you know it it's snowballed into 50 different variations and so on...... Whew!!!!! That was fun.


So a couple of my friends are really into this now so we decided to have a get together every Wednesday night and make a new project every week. This week it will either be a crown or an Easter themed paper cone. Whatever we make I'm really looking forward to our little craft night and will be chronicling our progress to post on my Blog each week and maybe it can turn into some tutorials, which I've never done before but would love to try.

Until then I'm dreaming of different colored inks and sparkley glitter.

Cheers!!!

Queen 4 A Day


I know, I know, I've been a bad blogger again. I've started to post two times and never finished. Must be the full moon coming up.

It's here!!!!!!!! The beautiful crown I won from Pinkie Denise, find her blog at http://pinkpomegranate.typepad.com/ . I just LOVE it.


That's it for now, I think I smell Dinner burning.

A Little Better

Well my craft room looks a lot better, now I just need to do something with the closet and make curtains for the window. It's definitely nicer to work in now and I found some long lost fabrics and made a few pillows. They are in the little cubbies in the pictures, I don't know if you can see them that well.






I went to Scrap Mania at Archivers last Friday night with a couple of my girlfriends, Valerie and Kimberly. For those of you that aren't familiar with Archivers it is a HUGE scrapbook supply store. They also have classes and the scrap mania's are where you take your scrapbook projects and work on it there and you get dinner, drinks and snacks, and they have freebies and drawings. None of us really do scrapbooking but we took other paper crafts to work on. Mostly we chatted and snacked. We were wild women and stayed out til 11:00 pm.LOL! I actually got one thing made, an altered match box for Valentine's Day.

Here it is, TA DA......

Not bad for five hours work huh? Can you believe that's all I got done? Oh well it was fun to get out of the usual grind for awhile. Next time though we are just going to go to one of our houses instead of paying $15.00 to eat and shop. They must make a killing on these events.

Have a great week everyone, talk to you soon.
