Discovering Twitter...

I have officially discovered Twitter.com. However, as much fun as I'm having with it, it is yet another thing that will keep me away from stamping, and trying to make extra money with stampin.

It is fun, just frustrated with my lack of discipline when it comes to planning/using my time.

I'm so BAD at being disciplined!!!

Well ladies, I’m sorry I haven’t gotten my tutorials up. I have the two cards that I want to make into a tutorial picked out and the sample is made. I’ve just got a lot going on.

I’m coordinating the Vacation Bible School program for my church, and its taking up an incredible amount of time. However, I’ve also been playing a little bit on the side too. I went to a Kutless concert last month, and a few days ago I went to the Rock and Worship Roadshow, (Mercy Me, Jeremy Camp, Hawk Nelson, Tenth Avenue North, and Addison Road), and let me tell you it was amazing. I will definitely go if they have it in Portland. So between training for VBS, the worship team at church, trying to take care of my own home, work, and play I’ve been really bad at actually doing my card stuff. Anyways... All that to say that I’m such a bum!

I’m looking forward to being able to sit and play with my card making stuff. I have the Thoughts and Prayers set from the new catalog and it is such an easy set to make a fantastic looking card. Very little thought or effort went into the cards I made and they really looked great.

I’ll try to get back on the ball and post more pictures of what I’ve been doing in my craft room! (I even cleaned it up so that I can find what I need now!)

When I Go Home Today


This is what I'm going to play with when I get home! :) YAY!!!

Not really Stamping...

Last week I was in Palm Springs for a conference (work related), and I had never been to Palm Springs. It may not be other people's first choice for a work related conference; I swear it really was, and I went to almost all of my classes. Let me tell you, after months of being in gray skies and rain it was a breath of fresh air to actually have sun and warmth.

I never really understood dry heat until I was down there either, but now I know what it is and I LOVE it! I'm going to post a couple of pictures, but I have to apologize first, as I was taking pictures I had no idea that there were crooked. Now as I'm looking at them on my computer they are REALLY crooked! I'll only include a couple pictures today, since I only got a few while I was down there. Next time I go I'll take more pictures!

Forgot... News (not exciting for most)

I've decided to take on the acetate challege! There are some beautiful cards on Splitcoaststampers.com made with acetate, and I finally went out and bought some today. (However, I think I may have gone too cheap with the quality, we'll see!)


If it turns out well it may just be the next thing that I just have to teach at the next workshop! This card was posted by galet1 on www.splitcoaststampers.com! By the way, there is so much great inspiration on SCS, if you haven't checked the site out yet make sure you do soon! :)


Waiting, waiting, waiting...

I've put my order in to get some new stampin' stuff, and it feels like its been forever since I put in my order. I'm hoping that it comes through before the end of today and I'll have my order on its way. It never happens that way though.

So to keep my creative juices flowing I'm looking for ideas for the next stamp set I'm getting. I already shared one picture with you earlier, but this is another one from the same set. I think there is a lot that you can do with this set, especially since it's got that cute little flower in the set as well...
I'm also getting the Fifth Avenue Florals set too, that will be great!!! So excited! :)
