Hello. Wow. I'm here again. After soooooo very long away. Life happens when you aren't looking. I am happy to be back in space where I can create and experience art again.

So much has happened in life since I last posted on this blog. Happy, sad and in between.

I am not sure I have my blog legs anymore..so just a toe in the water.

I created a few pages for the first time in several years...another toe in the water:



This felt good. I'm glad to be back.

Alter-natives

Hey Girls! Hope everything is amazing in your lives and that you have been your crafty bests! I have been working on some projects to send to Scrapbook Magazine.. but of course I can't post them until they are actually published. That can be a drag because I get really excited to share what I have been working on!!!


I am busy planning a trip to Park City, Utah to visit a friend from high school that I haven't seen in 10 years! I am so excited!! I have never been before and heard it is just beautiful..I will take a ton of photos to share with you guys!
Jen and I reconnected through Facebook... who else is addicted? I know I definitely am! I have met up with so many people from my past.. I love it!! Who have you reconnected with that was the most exciting? I would love to hear about it.

The new challenge on the Scrap Your Crap blog goes up tommorrow. This month's challenge is to alter an item thatyou've had laying around your craft area that you set aside to make the perfect present with. It's the perfect time NOW!! I love to alter inexpensive frames that I find in the dollar bin at Target! SCORE!!!

Here's one I did for a Father's Day Present... please come and play with us!!!!

I'm Extended!!


So yesterday I spent 5 hours at my hairdresser and got extensions.. I have been wanting them FOREVER and figured that now that I was single, it was as good a time as any to get them... I hope I don't look like one of those cougars pushing 40 who is desperately trying to look young?????

I'm The Scrapmuse Guest Designer for Feb!!!!!




A few posts ago I mentioned that I had been asked to be the guest designer for the month of Feb for this incredibly cool scrapbook kit company called Scrapmuse. The kit is now available!! Here's some of the stuff I was able to create with this ginormous kit! I still have so much left over! Here's a link to the newsletter they put out that has a cute little interview they did with me. The newsletter has examples from their regular designers and each of them wrote an article.. I wrote an article on using embellishments.. you can take a gander at that in the newsletter as well.


I really enjoyed using this kit and loved working with all the talented gals over at the kit club! Did i mention they also include chocolate in their kits? Enough said :)

Happy Valentine's Day?



Ok! I am not going to be that girl! This is my first Valentine's day as a newly single girl and I refuse to be a Debbie Downer! Yes, the boy I was seeing broke up with me last Saturday (suspicious timing..I sense someone did not want to spring for a gift..but I digress).. so I am officially solo on the big V-day... thank god for amazing friends and cute fur companions!

Valentine's day is too commercial and way over the top.. but I am still choosing to spread some love! All of you in blogland that I have gotten the pleasure of becoming friends with over the last year are sooooo important to me! You are LOVED and ADORED more then you could ever know! Have your best day ever!!
