Freestyle Challenge


Here's a page I did tonight that I really like - I love this Kimberly Hodges paper and love using it anywhere I can. I'd love to paper a bedroom with it but I wouldn't want to scare anyone off!

Spring is in the air!



Spring came early this year for us and I am so glad. It's not even warm enough outside to plant these petunias but that didn't stop me from buying them today! What a beautiful sight it is to go out driving and see all the forsythia and trees in bloom! Every day I check the progress of my peonies and hydrangeas. Who knows, this year they may even flower again? I love spring and I love flowers!

Finished!




So I finally finished the inside of my little paper purse this weekend. Even though I cut the papers all wrong initially, I still like the colorful way it came out. Happy Spring!

Spring Garland


So, I finally finished my Paper Bella project tonight. It was actually kinda fun - reminded me of being in college and doing crazy art projects that my professor cooked up using found materials and power tools. Ha. Okay - this project was minus the power tools, but it still brought me back to that time and I couldn't stop until I finished - even though it's midnight now. Oh well.

Not like I'll catch up on my sleep tomorrow or anything! I'm taking the kids to the arcade tomorrow just for fun. It'll do them good to get out of the house for a while.

If I weren't so tired I would work more on my card swap, the family album I'm supposed to be making for my Mom and Dad, and I'd also be trying out my new awesome papers that arrived in the mail today. But I guess that'll be tomorrow's midnight project. Goodnight!

Great book!


I got the most lovely book in the mail today - it's called: "Designer Scrapbooks with Dena." It's by Dena Fishbein who is a designer of many things. Her look is very romantic and feminine - I already own a few of her things but this book is perfect for me! It's about scrapbooking, designing and hosting parties with pretty invitations and table decorations. Every page is pure eye candy! I love it. You should rush out and get it! Very "Victoria" meets Posie. Ha.

In other news, I cut my own hair again today. I have been so sick of it - it has grown so long. So I bit the bullet and cut about 3 or 4 inches off. Funny thing is you can't even tell! But it just feels so much better! Looks bouncier and healthier. I'm sure my husband won't notice!

Maybe one of these days I'll get back into a salon if I ever have the time. HA!
