Sorry for the delay – I got a little distracted by some things at home. Back today with another Creative University Recap. Tresa asked me to be a teacher for C.U. waaaaay back in the fall of last year. I was so excited and nervous and had a trillion ideas going through my head and then she specified that I would be teaching a Jewelry class. Oh boy… more ideas started swirling around… and then I settled on one idea….
(I haven’t forgotten to come back and post the rest of the CU pics and fun, but I’ve gotten a little distracted the past couple of days. I’m working on them and I will be back with more!) This morning my friend, Suzi, came over for a visit and to work on some projects for the kids in Primary (church young children’s group). She needed some layouts/templates for the kids who will be turning eight and getting baptized this year. …
Oh my gosh, I have been SOOO sick this past week. Hopefully since this is my birthday (I’m celebrating the sometheenkth anniversary of my 21st birthday on Tuesday) week it will get better and we can have some fun with cake and ice cream and friends this weekend! I did go back to the dr again last night and he gave me antibiotics for this bronchitis and it seems to be workin already! YAH! The crappiest thing (can I say…
{ACK! THis was suppposed to have posted while I was away at C.U…. I opened up Live Writer this morning and there it was still in my drafts. Ooops! Anyway.. I am back from CU but am sick as a dog. I spent 4 hours at instacare on Monday night because I had a 101.7 fever that would not drop and could not stop coughing. Well, my fever has dropped to about 100, waffling back and forth between 99.5 and…
{scheduled post} The world of crafting has connected many hearts and built many friendships. I have been lucky to have made many friends in my creative journey via the internet and have even met many in person. One friend who I have not yet met in person but would love to someday is Michelle Durheim of Creative Treasures. She is so incredibly talented and I have spent many hours drooling over her creations on her blog. One day while I…
So I couldn’t share this yesterday (Monday) because I never know when my sweet husband might be haunting my blog. And ya know, I really didn’t want him to see this ahead of time. 🙂 He likes surprises and sweet notes. We had a quiet and sweet Valentine’s Day and attended his brother’s wedding. Next week we hope to do a fun/fancy dinner. I am mostly ready for CU.. most of my goodies are packed and I am tying up…
Busy in the studio on the computer still… I’ve been LOVING playing with digital images and and creating fun little doo-dahs. I’m in charge of the Charm Swap at Creative University and have been having so much fun with my charms. I can’t show you my charms just yet but I wanted to share with you the image I am using on one of them (the Victorian Vintage Charm Swap)… This image is MUCH bigger than what the charm image…
I’ve been playing around with digi art today and trying to get some goodies packaged up for my Creative University class this month. It’s in less than 2 weeks and I’m trying to tie up loose ends. Most of my roomie gift stuff is done and I think I finished my secret sister gifties. I’ve got to finish my charms and part of that process was finishing up my little “charm cards” to go with them in their little baggies. …
Gosh I’ve been busy behind the scenes here lately getting ready for Creative University and a visit from my aunt and cousin from Massachusetts who are going to be here when I return from C.U. and stay with us as they travel cross country to LA. Crazy stuff! We DID finally get Christmas down and put away and even de-junked the Christmas/Seasonal Decor closet (aka under the stairs). Yahoo! I’ve also been working on 60 charms (20 art charms, 20…
This is the current state of my desk… {Pardon the picture quality.. I snapped it with my webcam because I am too lazy to haul upstairs and charge the battery for my camera.} It could be worse… oh wait, it IS worse.. you don’t see the stuff upstairs on my table that has to come down here to the desk to find new homes. LOL! Today is National Clean Off Your Desk Day… I read it somewhere online so it…
