Today I am going to fill this post with some cards and projects I've recently made with Cosmo Cricket products. They are searching for new dt members, and I think it would be GREAT, LOVELY, WONDERFUL to be part of thier team. :)
That's all folks! *(for now) :) Going to Six Flags tomorrow!
Welcome back!!!!! This time I get to share with you all a peek at one of my cards that I used those **pins** that I shared with you last week! :) I really can't wait for the reveal so I can share all my creations. This is by far one of my favorite kits from CupCards {to go}!!!!!
If you want to see more fun peeks head on over to Danni's blog! You'll be inspired just as I am with her gorgeous work! :)
Today is my good friends' birthday!!!! :) :) :) Sonda is such a sweetie! I wanted to do something special for her so when I got my assignment from Say It With Letters, I knew this would be perfect for her! Her favorite color combo is pink and green and she is planning on decorating her scraproom in a beach theme...hence why this is perfect for her! :) :) :) Happy birthday my friend! :) :)
On to other news.....
I have to have surgery to take out the left side of my thyroid. I go in on Monday afternoon to have the consult with the surgeon. This would be my first surgery ever. Very nervous and scared. I will post when I know the surgery will be.
As for scrappy/quilty news....I've been trying to fit in all my handwork hobbies. Just do a little bit of each every day and I'm slowly getting projects done. :) Next week I'll share some pictures of what I've been working on.
Have a great day and do something creative!!!!

I wanted to share with you a few more cards I did with the June kit from CupCards {to go}. There's still a few left so hurry over there to pick yours up!
The next batch of cards are also done with the CupCards {to go} June kit, I did them after I sent in my assignments and wanted to still create a bit more....so works out for you...more inspiration to use this kit!!! I have added a few things from my own stash to the cards, but I know you all have a bit of extras laying around. (we all do!)
That's all for today! I sandwiched together a halloween quilt yesterday and continued cutting out pieces for a Christmas quilt. I may check out a quilt store in Manteca today. The boys are wanting to get out of the house. lol. And tonight Burn Notice starts!!! So excited!
Have a great day!
I've been once again been bitten by the quilting bug. Over the years I have always done a project or two, but right now I just want to do it so much more. In fact, last night I went to our local quilting guild Hearts N' Pieces and joined! My aunt is one of the co-founders and I know a few ladies already in there. I'm the second youngest, but that doesn't bother me! What I do love is that I don't have to get into the business side of this hobby. It can remain that....a hobby. No deadlines for magazines or design teams. No stress over having the latest and greatest because the magazines will only publish that. Oh, I'm so going to enjoy this!
As for scrapbooking, I'm still going to do it. But it will not be my complete focal point. I will still design for the few teams I am on. I will still submit to magazines (as I still love seeing my name in print as well as there's another Disneyland trip I need to save up for next year). And if some awesome opportunity came up I wouldn't say "No". What you may see less of is me being on message boards. Not that I'm on there all the time, but now it will be even less. I've been enjoying the mornings browsing through some boards, but then staying off the computer for the rest of the day and actually getting more things done around the house (crafting and non-crafting). I do have my iphone that I can check my emails when I need to throughout the day if needed.
So that's whats up with me. :)
Oh, did you see that the June kit for CupCards {to go} is up???!!!! Sonda is no longer doing subscriptions...it's first come first serve!! It's a great kit! Here are a few of the cards I made with it.
I'll share more tomorrow. I have to go in today to prep for this weekend. It's graduation time in Livermore, and there's a bunch of extra stuff I need to do like make a bunch of graduation caps, petunias, make colors etc. It will also be the first day where I have to take the boys with me. sigh. I hope they behave!!! I'll be bringing the portable dvd player so hopefully they can chill for a couple of hours.
Until later, have a great day and do something creative for yourself!
