Busy all day- shopping AND looking for a JOB..

Sorry- didn't get anything done today- I was catching the sales before the money ran out. Everything else gets saved for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  I applied to several places and I am praying that someone hires me soon... I am tired of being at home all day. Kayde is just too needy when I am here. I can't get anything done. And honestly- I got more done in my day when I worked.. So if anyone needs a helper-- I'm looking and can do anything-- that's legal..

Busy Busy busy

I have been very busy with working on a baby boy album. I also got a creative block yesterday so i'm getting out of the house today and heading for our Hobby Lobby to break up my normal routine.. I also spent the morning looking at other blogs, creating my wholesale account with Crafter's Companion- if you haven't been to their website you should. http://crafterscompanion.com  They have some great stuff. What I have used-- is the Crafter's Companion  Stick and Spray- and the NEW Glue Pens that have DOUBLE the adhesive as all other comparable brands... The tape is a little stingy and you have to be careful of it but for the same price as others for only 30 or so feet. I can put up with it. I use a lot of adhesive!

 Anyway check it out.. I will be adding the stuff to the website as soon as I can.. If you want anything let me know..

Updating the blog

So I worked today mostly on getting the blog set up the way I like it. I hope everyone likes it. I am new at this blog and website thing so I am still learning how to do it. SO if you have any suggestions feel free to contact me or comment and I'll see what I can do.
IN the mean time I am only working on finishing up some stuff I need to finish so I can move on. It won't take long if Kayde leaves me alone a little this week. I won't have Bryan so that will make it alot easier.

See you later- till then keep scrapping!

Tim Holtz Page -made at Scrap Pink Retreat from Scrapbook N Such

Hi I finished my 2 page layout that we done in the Tim Holtz class given while we were at the Scrap Pink Retreat given by Scrapbook N Such in Burkburnett, TX October 1-3, 2010.

We had alot of fun- I didn't take pictures so I finished my pages at home like always. I have gotten to do this on most everything I make now as for some reason I just work better on the details at home(maybe it's because that's where ALL my stuff is) you can only pack so much to take with you- ALTHOUGH some of the people there LOOKED like they brought everything they owned. If it's NOT all they own- I would LOVE to see their Scrapbook rooms(or houses) , they had containers and containers and containers of stuff.

 Anyway, My page came out great. I love it. Kayde really loves it as she got to help alittle.

It's alittle off center due to the camera and how I was hanging it to take the pic but it turned out great.
I may have to buy more of the Tim Holtz collection- I seen a few I really like.

 I am hoping Tammi(my Sister will accept my invitation to help me with my Blog and add some of her stuff to it to make it even better! She has tons of stuff she has done also.
 That's it for now. Kids should be waking up soon.

I am starting a little boy album so I will keep you posted.

Kayde Scrapbook page I finished after the Scrapbook retreat..

Here is the page I did all but the Picture at the retreat. But when I tried to sew it it messed up so I had to redo parts of it since I wanted it sewn.  All in all it came out great. The picture is printed on canvas so I had to take this outside to take a pic to get the most realistic picture of it.

Back from my Scrap Pink Retreat!

Well I got back late Sunday from my Scrap Pink retreat. We had so much fun- probably slept a little more than I had planned-although I could have slept soo much longer. I went to bed at 9PM last night--I never do that-but I was just so very tired. Anyway- got a few pages done while I was there.

 My sister, Tammi won the Pink Retreat Bra decorating contest..
I won Grand Prize - a Tote worth over $350.00.. I was so very surprised..

We are planning on going to the Next Crop in Feb-  link that that site is http://scrapbooknsuch.com/weekendretreatscrops.html The dates are 02/11/2010- 02/13/2010 at Camp Chaparral. the Cost is still under negotiations but should be 150.00(maybe alittle more..)
But this is for 3 days-2nights in hotel like rooms and all meals are cooked for us. Not a bad price at all.... Hope to get a few more people to go with us so we can reserve a table.... Let me know Thanks Jodie
