Croppin' all weekend!! AND More JC8 Delicious--ness!

I had a SUPER-DUPER FUN weekend!!!
My LSS had a crop this weekend that went Friday and Saturday night and OMWord!! I had a BALL!

I was SO excited to be there Friday night and chatted with SO many girls that my throat was sore from all the talking I did. (If you were there, you can stop laughing now! ;) )I made good use of the provided snacks and the store that as packed up and relocated there briefly and actually got TWO LOs done the next day!!!! LOL. WHY do I bother bringing supplies!!??
**********************************

OK.. I think I love this kit SO much I could almost eat it!
(YES!! I am enjoying it THAT much!)

If you love color, then you will LOVE this kit!! And BTW.. if you haven't played with JBS paper yet, you MUST!!
Here are a few more LOs that I got finished with this kit. TFL!!

*******************************************************

'Bowl Fan'

Is this done?? I am undecided. I used scraps from my [url=http://www.justcre8.com/kits/2009/may/may09cp.html] May creative Pack [/url] to do this LO (which is my second attempt with these pics, btw..) and I feel like it needs something else-but I am not sure.




This is a card I did with my scraps as well (I mean I SERIOUSLY LOVE this kit!).
I made the die cut-looking paper by tracing the BoBunny clear frames that came with it and then cutting/stitching them.

*******************************************************

Love Struck

THIS is a pic of my Lil Sis & her cutie patootie BF at their winter formal.
All items from the may 09 CP EXCEPT:
Dots all Around Template (store)
JB sticker & Rubon from March 09 SP
Chipboard Heart from April 09 SP

I used the VersaMark pen and the Dots All Around Template and just filled in the dots for an easy watermark effect.



I used the Versamark pen again on the chipboard heart and freehand drew some designs.
I then used the Zing from the CP Kit and embossed it.

Thanks for POPPING BY!! Have a GREAT WEEK!!

All Grunged up (new LO)

I scrapped with 'The Girls' last Friday night (which just ends up usually as ALOT of girl talk for MOI). I NEVER finish a LO in one sitting with 'The Girls' so I finished this one up yesterday. It is VERY grungy for me (Cardboard, masking tape, black paint & staples) , but I felt like stepping out of my 'scrappy box' and doing something a bit different. Not sure how I am feeling about it. I think I have a love/hate relationship with it. ;)

Thanks for the purple button, T! tee hee

Happy Easter Everyone!!

SO... You know how DH bought me the most FABULOUS camera for C-mas... I couldn't really figure out WHAT I was doing with it, then the memory card died.. I got frustrated and put it away. DH got me a NEW memory card but I was still putting it off. Jessi's new photography challenge at http://www.justcre8.com/ got me inspired to try again (Thanks, Jessi!!!) So... This is what I photographed this AM. I LOVE it! (I am sure technically there is ALOT that could be better about it, but I am happy for my first try!) Thanks for letting me share! (off to find something red now for the challenge now)



Happy Easter! Don't eat TOO much Chocolate!!

*******************************************************
SO I applied for The GCD Design Team and didn't make it BUT I made a spot in their group of 21 testers! And will be receiving product from them to design with! Holy HANNAH! I was FLOORED and THRILLED to see my name on the list!
You can check out the New DT and the announcements on their blog here: http://gcdstudios.blogspot.com/2009/04/our-new-product-testers.html .
*******************************************************
OK my TWO favorite shows are HOUSE & LOST.
I watched House Monday night and 'OMG! They killed Kutner!!!' (said in my best South Park STan voice) I EQUALLY Loved/Hated the way they did it. It sucked that they just THREW it out there without warning (fans are in an uproar) BUT BUT BUT THIS really IS the reason I LOVE this show so much! They are CONSTANTLY surprising me with their dry-wit, interesting characters and the cast is STELLAR. SO while I think it is rotten to throw it all out there-BOOM! with no warning, I applaud the writers and cast for a flawlessly executed exit of a very beloved character (and for simutaneously SHOCKING the pants off me.)
RIP, Kutner. Congrats on your new job in the West Wing, Kal Penn :)
