one dollar wednesday is a MUST

okay tea time? come on how cute is this
you gotta go pick it up and buy it today...at least before Wednesday because it is only a buck.
happy easter folks

Run don't walk to buy this

I bought this Fiskars stamping tool from here I highly suggest you do the same!!!! The best tool out there for stamping and at www.cropstop.com it is only 12.95 cents plus if you use the coupon code on the side of my blog you will save an additional 10% off of your purchase.

Just look how any stamp will cling to the plate. Now of course unmounted no cushion stamps will not but clear stamps and my Tim Holtz and even my new studio 490 stamps cling right to the plate.

You can align your paper under the plate and push down there you have it a clean crisp image each and every single time. So, if I were you I would run to www.cropstop.com and buy it today! before they sell out but please do leave me one! I am going to buy another one to put back for years to come!

ROY B GIV

Vicki had a challenge this week at www.cropstop.com using ROY B GIV as our inspiration. I used spellbinders as well as coredinations paper in my card.

This is why I will never buy anything from anyone other than cropstop

This week

First was a cool case for the new Ipod touch Rick bought me. I love purple Next this little dolly I love.... I just had to have her to remind me that Rick and I will be heading to Paris

Grace by Philosophy While this isn't my favorite it is nice. I am in love with Inner Grace by Philosophy and this is pure grace and amazing grace shower gel, bubble bath.

At work they had this really neat Kindle carrying case for your Kindle. I saw the yellow and knew it had to come home with me. A bargin for 7.99

Rick bought a case just like this except it wasn't lighted for my Kindle when I got it at Christmas. The Kindle kept resetting itself or would just turn off on it's own. I called Amazon and they refunded the price of the case plus gave me a $25.00 gift card to purchase the new lighted case. I guess there was an issue with the metal on the first edition cases. So, now I have this new case with a built in light. I didn't realize just how much I would use the light but now when I can't sleep instead of waking up Rick I just reach over and grab Kindle then read for a little bit.

This week I received some neat stuff in the mail. I also went shopping at work and found some awesome deals. More details to follow. Gosh it feels good to blog again

Sudio 490

Okay so I am in love with STudio 490 and am having a fun time working with this stuff. you gotta check out studio 490

My new favorite obsession

These little ladies just happen to be my new favorite obsession. I bought these in Suffolk to go with the pictures that Rick took in Germany when we were there last year. I totally love the look that these give the photos. We do not hang any art on the walls, all of our art is on the floor and it looks really cool.

Isn't she just cute? she has that I really don't care look and the does this suit make my butt look big attitude! Love these girls. We actually found some really cool ones in Vegas but I didn't have room to bring any back so they stayed there. These are a little different but same type.

Just one of those days

When life gives you lemons you are supposed to make Lemonade right? Well, life keeps giving me lemons, and as soon as I try to make lemonade my basket is filled with lemons again. My little art blog has now become a place where I can come and just write down my thoughts too. So, for today my thought is this...................................... ONE more lemon today and I think I WILL SCREAM! I need a mindless thought just for one second. Just a second where my mind isn't going a millon miles a minute...just one second Nope didn't work I tried but as it turns out it just gave me a huge headache. OFF to work I go.................................

A sign of Spring

Today I have lost 53lbs. The temp outside is 82 so I thought I would go and look at what Summer clothes I had from last year that might fit. THERE wasn't one item that would fit. So, I loaded up five huge bags of spring clothes to take to a very deserving young lady. I looked at Rick and said.... I have nothing that fits. I am not done yet with the weight loss still another 27lbs to go. Guess I will go and purchase just a few things to make due until the big day when finally I can say.................... I made it!
