So after my mom gave all the graduation cards to the teachers, the teachers and my mom said I should sell my cards. So I now have my own Etsy shop! Actually made me more motivated to make cards! I also have a small widget to the left column :) Here's the link- lostgrl16.etsy.com

4: Pick 7 people to give the award to
Here we go!
1. I love stuff animals, I still sleep with them.
2. I will not eat veggies, yuck.
3. I do more collecting and organizing than crafting lol

6. I like doing laundry. I have no idea why.

Thank cards I've been trying to make for like 2 weeks LOL
I was trying to be like The Pink Stamper, having multiple paper on the mat.
I was making Graduation cards for my brother.
I've been working on my blog for the past 3 days so I apologize for any broken links, messed up blogs etc. I have a couple cards at home that I will post about this weekend. Hope you are enjoying the new look of the blog :)
Thanks!!
I've seen quite a few forum threads lately asking about sketch sites and where we get our inspiration. One of my FAVORITE sites to go to is SheetLoad of Cards. I have yet to find my own creativeness, so I need sketches. It's a GREAT place to start :) What's even better with this site is that the recipes they provide, can make up to 8 cards! They also have a free ezine you can download each month. I definitely recommend them :) Here's the latest issue, June 09 :)
Enjoy!
So I got a new table today :) 8 FEET!! Boyfriend's dad wanted to use this table for a workspace in the garage, but boyfriend's mother decided that since my old table already had holes in it, beat up etc, gave me the new table :D YAY!! Let's see how long it'll take me to mess up the whole table hehe. Already using up most of the space!
And then, after all the cleaning and reorganizing, I finished up my card swap for the new forum! Mostly SU products.. decided to leave them blank so the receiver of the swap can decide how to use them. I think it looks very versatile :) Any opinions?
GENERAL QUESTION TO MY VISITORS :)
How is the weather where you are?
It's nice one day, rainy the next. But I'm just happy for the nice weather :) Hope everyone else is enjoying the weather were they are! Thanks everyone :)
yet I still managed to make 2 cards =)
Made this on Saturday... Evan actually jumped in and did half the inking! LOL
And I made this today =) Just had to use the brads hehe.
Here is Evan's new pet herbit crab. I had to baby sit him while he took bath. If you'd really like to know his name, contact me, cause no way am I posting it!! LOL
So I did make a card for today, but I am not proud of it =( Coloring was SO bad... =( After I took the picture, thinking I was going to post it, I spilled my coke on my table. LUCKILY it didn't damage anything but I take that as a sign.... bad card! I don't usually believe in that type of stuff, but I think since I'm not proud of it, I got clumsy =(
Another factor might be my mess. I should really clean that... tomorrow =) LOL I guess making one card a day may be too much pressure on me. Especially with my limited SU supplies. I'm sorry to keep coming with the same materials but I do like how a lot of the cards I've made past couple days have turned out!
I think I'm going to say.. 5 cards a week, weekends are my days off =) Boyfriend, friends and I were out most of the day today. Should've known, we all have full/part time jobs during the week! Durr.. =)
Thanks for "listening" to my ramble!
Boyfriend gave me this little corner after Black Friday. Built me a computer too during Christmas! hehe I know I should've posted this sooner but just had to time this weekend to catch up on the blog =)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEE
My sister got me the new Sleeping Beauty Platinum DVD that came out :D Watching it now too!! Uncle got me an ice cream cake and Popeyes for lunch at work lol. Dinner with family and the boyfriend. Pictures tomorrow.. sister has the camera lol.
Oh thanks to my NSSS RachelleRN for the card and little present :D
