...and other stuff, too!

I have been busy working away on wedding accessories for my niece who is getting married at the end of June!  I love making wedding accessories!  As soon as I can (I will ask her first) I will post pictures! Did you know there 183 shades of white!  I am sure there are just as many shades of ivory.  This has been a bit of a problem because I haven't seen her dress!! But I know its ivory! Stay tuned....

And another one! Wow!

My neighbor's birthday happened to be today.  I don't know if she got cheated or not because it's Mother's Day-kinda like having a birthday on Christmas! Anyway, I made her a card and I really hope she liked it, even though it isn't purple!

Happy Mother's Day, Mom!

Well, I got my mojo back!  I still don't have a room to myself and I am still stamping on the dining room table.  But instead of using the whole table, I am using only a fraction of it because the dining room is still the "command center" since the office is "under construction."  Anyway...I got tired of doing nothing but blurfing and I have been inspired alot lately by Julia Stainton so I went and did a little shopping and Viola!! I have found I am much more creative when I am not limited to one brand. So there it is!  I will leave it at that!  Here is the card I made for my mom for Mother's Day.  She loves "bling" and I love black and fuchsia together.  I am so happy she loved it!  Then off we all went to Philippe's in LA for french dip sandwiches!  A great day!

It's almost time!

So, we are just a day away from being able to order from the new Summer Mini Catalog!  There so many wonderful new things in there!  I haven't been able to order anything from it yet, but soon and I promise to post something one of these days!  Our house is still not quite put together and between a very hectic work schedule and no place to stamp right now, I haven't done anything! Soon though..I am going through major withdrawals! Have great weekend! 

It's been a long time!

Well, I have been neglecting my blog because I have been neglecting my stamps. My house is an absolute mess right now and all my fun stamping stuff is put away. My dining room table, where I craft because I am not yet lucky enough to have my own room (soon though!), and usually strewn with paper, stamps and ink, ribbon, etc., is now full of stuff I am not sure if I am going to keep or give to Goodwill. Like, the curtains and rod that are down because the walls in our bedroom are being painted. I don't think I am going to put them back up because they won't match the new comforter and bed stuff we are going to get. We had to get rid of the old comforter because, well, it was really old. And it was really worn out. Not from us, but from Roxy (the cute little boxer below!) You know, the day after day (7 years now-and the comforter was like, 10!) of endless turning in circles, trying to find just the right spot to lay down. Then napping, getting up, going downstairs and repeating the process on her own bed. Then napping, and then going back upstairs and on and on....and speaking of beds, we are living like Romans or hippies. Not sure which. We have a blow-up mattress in the middle of our very small living room and it is too much trouble to let the air out each day, so during the day we prop it up against the sofa so Roxy doesn't jump on it and treat it like the other bed!!

Anyhoo! I am itching to do something! And I just make myself miserable going to all my favorite blogs, nite after nite and not being able to do anything yet!!

With luck, we will be back in our room this weekend. Then I can put everything back where it belongs and get my other stuff back out! That's the kind of "mess" I like!!
