I’ve been playing (just for fun)… wanna see?

That’s gold german glass glitter (gilded, is name given to it by www.onehundredwishes.com, where I got it). FUN stuff.

This page makes me so happy. I’ve been DYING to use that pink wood grain (basic grey) paper for weeks and I am so glad I did. No, it’s not “perfect”, but I’d rather have fun than worry about all that. OH- plus “supergirl” paper I’ve been hoarding since 2002. Glad to see that get used. Title is, of course, the fabulous American Crafts thickers. Other goodies include Heidi Grace (jounral sticker + little alphas), Elsie chipboard shapes, lil davis ribbon, and 7gypsies flower sticker.

Well now that I had a “just for fun” break, I’m headed back to fun craft assignments!

send a note.

Here’s my idea: Go mail a letter, a present, a photo, a simple note, anything… and send to someone you know who could use a little happy (surprise) mail.

then come on back and leave a comment here letting me know you’ve done it. On Sunday (9th) I will draw at least six names and send YOU a wee bit of happy mail! (acrylic stamp? sticker? something that fits in a standard envelope…)

Have fun, and help me spread some happy mail!

sneaky peeks and ramblings

Busy bee, that’s me! I officially created more than 50% of the content for my next big picture class. (FUN!) So hopefully soon I’ll be able to SPILL more and it’ll be listed on site. Want a few sneaky peeks of what I made yesterday?

hooray for Mr. Campy (Cosmo Cricket) Oh how I love this line and want to use it on everything. Ok, not everything. But you know what I mean. It’s SOOO funky cute.

Also made a prom page (had FUN with it!) I used to think I missed out on the high school experience by never going to a dance with a love interest. Now? I think I saved myself heartache and trouble. I’m not big on awkward situations, and I’d have been so crazy nervous. Yes, better to focus on dress, nails, hair, and FUN of dressing up and going out with friends.

If I could go back in time I’d tell 17 year old me to stop fretting that she’d never had a love connection because she’d meet her future husband within 6 months of prom night. whoa. That’s a crazy thought! I doubt she’d believe me anyhow… even if she would like to hear she ends up with a fireman husband. 

Yes, I like talking to myself and making conversation with former ages of myself. And now I’ve forgotten how this blog post started… I best go get some more sleep…

huh?

A 3 year old slept in my bed sniffling and coughing and keeping me 1/2 awake. That’s ok, it’s all part of the mom gig. But I was totally confused this morning because it seemed I was trapped in weird time. My body said I slept in, the clock said I didn’t.

But… the downstairs clock confirmed I did sleep in.

then, the computer told me I didn’t.

and my cell phone agreed with the cable box and the computer.

Just as I was going to google my odd time issues to check if daylight savings happened or something I got a text from the Mr. that confirmed: daylight savings added 1hr to this day.

So here’s my question. If I had an extra hour today, and the clock says it’s only 8pm, why didn’t I get anything done past 9am? HUH? Why did I never make it into craft?

weird. Hoping to not get stuck in groundhog day type scenario tomorrow. I’ve got work to do!
