GO TIGERS GO!
Final four....HERE WE COME!!!
Memphis 85, Texas 67.
What an interesting day. Some of the ladies that came into the store didn't want to know the play-by-plays and whatnots, and Luanne and I were keeping each other updated, so we ended up just writing the score on a Viagra notepad and alerting those who wanted to know, which turned out to be mainly everyone. =/
AAAAAHHHHH!!!
Here are the pictures from the card and the gift card holder/book that I made for my mom:
I drew a picture of a cupcake and kitty prints on the inside of her card, walking away. It was cute.
I have SO much to do tomorrow. I have to get my dress fitted for my birthday. It's SUPER gorgeous. [pics to come!]
Since I seemed to have neglected mentioning that David brought me daffodils to work right before we closed a few nights back. It put a HUGE smile on my face. ....and yes, I DO have pics! Hehe...
AND....the store sample that I did for Eclectica:
It's simple enough to be cute. TOOT TOOT!

You can't always find what you want.....
...then sometimes it's just fun to wear mismatched socks. Keeps the spark alive!
I'm such a goob. I've had a VERY rough day. I FINALLY got my things back from Brad. We've been separated since the 14th of January. It's not like he didn't have any excuse to meet up, he just couldn't be bothered. He didn't have everything that he owed me, but at least the materialistic things were returned.
UGH! Drama. He had to bring a girl with him, too. What an idiot. I'm SO glad that I have a nice, mature man now.
I'm exhausted....I promise I'll post the pics of my mom's presents and I made for her and also the purdy daffodils. :)

Earth Hour!
Okay, so anyone who's reading this, PLEASE participate. Earth hour is from 8 until 9pm tonight. To help conserve power around the plant, everyone is asked to bascially have fun and go back to the middle ages, sitting around candles and playing board games, whatever pleases you. Lol....
View http://www7.earthhourus.org/ for more information.
Trust me, you CAN make a huge difference!

What a long day...
OBSESSED. =/
I'm so exhausted. Mentally and physically...
I need to take a shower and clean, but I can't be bothered to move right now. UGH!! HGTV is keeping me company. I've been having a rough night. I'm learning that old habits don't die so hard.
Mad props to Cindy. She's picking me up some fun-lovin' California fabrics. I'm curious as to what I'm going to do with it. Something will come to me, I'm sure. I have a whole bag of "fluff" to stuff pillows with, so that'll probably be part of my idea.
I'm also trading some goods with Linda, in Denmark. I've GOT to start cleaning and getting things together. When I'm done renovating, I'm going to have a scrapbook nook in my room, hopefully I'll have enough space. =X
I've been buying A LOT of stamps. I need to get some clear thin cd holders and use one of my storage bins for stamps. Blah...
I think I'd LOVE to have some music sheets. I need an insider's scoop!
OOOHHH....what makes me so excited right now: [I'll have pictures later]
My dad FINALLY went out and got me some daffodils for by the birdfeeder. He ended up mowing over [and killing] the ones that I pulled from the old woods that USED to be behind our house, so they had special meaning to them. At least now I have beautiful daffodils that he CAN'T and WON'T destroy. PLUS, in the summer, sunflowers grow there too, because of the birdfeeder. :)
But for starters....
OH, and just before bed....this is probably the sexiest thing I've seen in AGES!!! :)
I'm off to shower....and then slumber.
Cleaning tomorrow after class, where I'm having an exam, and hopefully I'll remember my scantron to this class. Ugh! Today was NOT my day.
I want to just have an entire day of sleeping. I'm not going to let that happen until progress has been made. SEVERE progress!

Happy Easter! :)
Okay, I have yet ANOTHER request....
I have NO idea where to get really cute fabrics such as:
Also, I'm looking for Japanese prints. Think, anime.
I'm searching for ANYTHING!!!
OOOHHH....and the search continues for cupcake materials. Again, fabric, paper, embellishments.....you name it.
PLEASE let me know! If anyone has anything, I'll buy it.
<3*

OMG!!!! [beware, there's LOADS of requests: numbered]
....and they're ALL MINE!!! muahahaha.
I absolutely LOVE birds. They're becoming the pattern I can't seem to put down. Anything that comes into the store, if it has birds, count of the fact that I've got it!
*NEW* swap that I have to prepare for. I've decided to go out of a limb [though I told myself I need to calm down with the swaps] and participate in the Muses' Clearly Acrylic Mini Book Tastefully Naughty Swap. Hehehe....I'm really excited to see how it turns out. I have something of what I want to do. I need a corset stamp though. :(
1. HELP! I want to find more things with cupcakes and brights. I get bored with some of the products I see out there. There's a VERY limited supply of cupcakes available, that I've seen. I'm not talking entirely scrapbook related, just things I can branch off from. I need some ideas. I want to get started doing some things for Etsy. Woo....only problem, I don't really have much time to create things and also, it won't be for a while. Maybe in the summer....
Also, I'm such a sucker. I need to just cut up my paper and go to town with it. Make tags, frames, cards, magnets, scrapbook layouts, altered items....you name it.
2. If anyone out there in the whole wide internet world have any tips, tricks, or ideas, please tell me.
3. I need cupcake buddies! I'm thinking an entire day dedicated to cupcakes: making, baking, painting, daydreaming about, and endulging.
4. I need to quit buying paper, clean, and create a craft space in my room for this summer. Moreso, however, I want a new, fresh, bright wardrobe. This means shopping! Steals and deals are what I'm looking for. Clearance, cute, different. Ideas?
Nearly my Mom's birthday, which means....MY VERY MERRY UNBIRTHDAY!!!! Seriously.
I was supposed to be born on my Mom's birthday [Saturday, the 22nd], but instead, I made me grand entrance exactly two weeks later. :)
AHHH!!! I'm feeling really creative right now. Too bad I have to get off here and get ready for work. I'll be picking up my acrylic pieces for the swap today. I need to get to work on stuff for my Mom tonight, finishing up the store sample for next week, and buy the supplies for the swap. I'll post pictures of what I create this weekend, next week.
UGH...slavery paper due Monday. This means, no crafting until it's done. Saturday and Sunday are reserved for that. Tiffany and Megan girly-night tonight! I can't wait.
MUCH LOVE!

GREEEEEENNN!!!<333*
okay, so for an ENTIRE weekend of utter disease and illness, i think i'm at a turn around.
note to self: *some shots do NOT mix well with others! [medicinal, not alcoholic]*
i've lost about three days sleeping, but i do feel REALLY relaxed and not as tired as i have been. hooray!
also, MY FAVORITE DAY is today!!! other than halloween and most certainly THIS year's birthday-fest, for someone who loves green, this is certainly the greatest of the great.
hoping that p and i will be heading downtown [east memphis, yay!] tonight for some much needed shopping. :)
i can't wait to see what we come back with. hanging with her gives me new insight and i get to be more myself than.....well, me.
*i KNOW that didn't make sense. i'm still kinda medicated*
i'm not going into details on just WHAT i've been going through, but it was, undoubtedly the flu. i made the decision last night to REFUSE the ER, and instead, watched hgtv and curled up on the couch with gerkie. she's been my little nurse the entire time.
the ONLY downside of coming out of a coma now is school and also the fact that i'll have to put in my contacts, THINK about make-up, and actually get dressed.....three things that have been OUT OF THE QUESTION these past few days [and nights]. i've also kept my hair all nice and wavy....
i think, if time and weather provides, i'll go out and pick a four-leaf clover or two. depending on if it's a good luck day or not. sometimes, they're hidden.
i need to get something to eat. something that won't hurt my tum-tum. ugh! being sick is NOT fun. i swear....
much love!

Okay Marci!
So, apparently I've been tagged by the great and lovely, Marci.
Seven weird and random things about me:
1. I'm extremely shy, believe it or not.
2. I'm not a fan of most jewelry. In fact, I don't like large gems [i.e. diamonds].
3. I have only ever hit ONE creature, that I know of, while driving [a snake].
4. I am a sucker for pretty much ANYTHING artsy.
5. I probably have more Viagra sticky notes than I do scrapbook paper and embelishments, combined [the ladies I work with know EXACTLY what I'm talking about]!
6. I'm addicted to pastries, mainly cupcakes and anything with them.
7. I am an internet junkie and a Myspace & Etsy freak! :)
I know, lame. I can't think of anything. I don't think I'm going to tag others, though I'm supposed to tag seven others. =/
Feel free to post!

Everything is cold...
I just found out that my ex-boyfriend that I had senior year MIGHT have committed suicide.
Sam was a wonderful guy. Full of life and spirit. He was a skater and had an amazing girlfriend, Rachael. He was nice to everyone and didn't have any enemies. He was always happy and brought a smile to your face.
He was found, by his mom....in her closet. The autopsy shows that he was hung POST-mortum.....AFTER he was dead.
No one knows anything else about it though.
Therefore, he HAD to have been murdered, since you can't hang yourself AFTER you're dead.
I'm so screwed up right now...
I've been crying and shaking and just overall, cold.
I don't understand any of this.
It just doesn't make any sense.
It doesn't help that I haven't seen him in ages and his funeral will be in Missouri, 7 hours away, so I WON'T see him ever again.
The only other people that I've known to die were my grandparents [mom's side]. This is just....on a whole different level.

Ugh!
Why oh WHY did Tennessee win?!?! Ugh...
I had to go running my mouth. :(
Oh well, it turned out to be an okay night, otherwise.
David and I went to Kroger and picked up cupcake stuff [cake mix, frosting...sprinkles!] and then headed back JUST in time for the start of the game.
The game was pretty good in the beginning. A lot of just passing the ball back and forth between teams.
Everyone liked David and my cupcakes, even with the frosting melting all over the place. I couldn't wait.
Then, it happened. The vols won. UGH!!!
At least I got SOMETHING out of the night. David and I are now together. He's the sweetest guy I know. Though, he's still a guy and can forget things, like me asking for a glass of water and 30+ minutes later having ot be reminded again. =/
But, I'm happy....and that's what counts.

A not-so disasterous Valentine's Day
Wow. I was certainly shocked. I kinda expected a day full of misery and loneliness and just utter reflectance on past experiences, but all that was thrown out the window.
After a pretty stressful day, and only minimal reflectance, I gave my Nutritionist lesson for my class [thankfully, the posterboard didn't take TOO long to complete and I came prepared], I headed over to David's house for a relaxing evening.
Not only did he go above and beyond, but this guy knew I didn't have the greatest of days and surprised me with not roses, but irises. :) I promise you, I couldn't have been more relieved that he didn't buy me roses. On top of that, a card [NOT handmade :(], a teddy bear, Ghirardelli caramel chocolates, and......drum roll please...........AN ELCECTICA GIFT CARD!!!! He sooooo knows me. Lol...
We ended up making dinner. He made me spaghetti and garlic bread [yum!] and I made brownies.....which weren't too great. Boo me.
We just watched t.v. and hung out. It was nice and relaxing and a perfect ending to an otherwise miserable and redundant Valentine's fiasco.
I'm happy.

SB XXXXII [IV+II]
So far today I've:
-Shuffled reading [the important parts] of three history books.
-Wrote part of my rough draft for my paper that's due tomorrow.
-Poked around on various sites/blogs.
-Daydreamed of owning just about everything on Etsy.
-Found a book I'm tempting on buying on Amazon.....or requesting a special order at the store.
-In the process of watching the pre-game show. It's stupid.
Sorry, I'm not really one for Alicia Keys. Ugh!
The anticipation for the family party we're about to have is killing me. Tiffany is going to be coming over, so that means.....AWESOME macarroni and cheese. YUM! We've got [as the verbal "shopping list" has stated] chips, dip, sodas, and meat of sorts. I'm currently taking a break from writing my paper. It's supposed to be a non-fictitious, first-person account of a slave or a slave owner in the late 18th century. I chose an account of the slave. I'm telling about being taken from the home, shipped off to the Americas [the Middle Passage], and setting foot on the new land. It's coming together rather nicely, I think. I'm pretty good at bs-ing some good material, IF the interest is there.
I'm dying to finish and eat a BUNCH of junk.
w00t! BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!
Much love to the masses,

As of...
January 14th.
Brad and I are no longer together. Honestly, THANK GOD! I couldn't deal with all his lies and his UNWILLINGNESS to do a single thing for me, let alone even bother to take me out on dates. If I gave him an inch, he took three. It just wasn't worth the trouble.
I'm sad that I've lost someone that I tried to work with and love with all my heart [he still has it]. I'm just going to move on and live stronger. I'm through taking people's crap. I deserve better than that. I need to give myself more credit and hold true to my morals and values. NO ONE should EVER come in between those.
On to a much happier and better future....

Too much to do, so VERY little time.
I seem to have VERY bad luck with cars [if you don't know, well, then you just haven't been around]. Someday, maybe I'll have another "cheap" car. I can't afford gas in The Tank.
Christmas is RIGHT around the corner! I have a few items left to purchase, and hopefully I can get some offline and also, AVOID the mall this year. I don't want to set foot in there, especially now. Target's as close as I get, with the exception of work, and BOY is that a relief. Speaking of.....the employee party is coming up and I need to buy or make something for that, too! Only downfall, is it's on Brad's birthday and we've already made plans. Maybe I'll be able to drop him off at the bookstore or some "manly-ish" area just for a little while, so I can do the Dirty Santa exchange and eat a cookie or two. I'm not planning on staying or really even eating. Saving room for TGIFriday's! w00t!
I HAVE to get my "Christmas" card/tag/ornaments out in the mail and whatnot soon. This is the VERY first year that I've ever done anything like this on my own. I'm kinda excited to see how it goes.
Exams are in a few weeks [like TWO!] and I am SOOOOOO ready for semester's end. I'm not excited to transfer to the U of M, or really anywhere else. Southwest has kinda become comfortable for me. I'm not saying I don't want to graduate, I just wish it was a four-year institution [almost has been for me] with a Bachlor's to result, since I DON'T want to move out and go to college and the U of M is just too big. I like the comfort and convienience of the classroom size and locations.
Boo.
Okay, well, on top of trying to save SOME money [NOT working AT ALL!] and pay all of my dues, I think I'm almost set for the year's end.
Almost...

*WHEW!*
It's been awhile! I wrecked my car about a month ago and ended up totalling it out. The insurance money that we got from it ended up paying both MY car and my dad's car off. I've been driving his car around, and let me just say.....NOT fun! I'm not used to "tha tank", as I call it.......nor $40 every week to fill it!
It sucks. I really want to get a new car, but I DON'T see that happening anytime soon.
Hmm....other than that, I went to Zoo Boo last night and got a few pieces of candy. At least seeing Brad made it all worthwhile. I get to see him next Saturday too, at the Q BOO [Fall Out Boy concert at the Mud Island Amp.]. I'm pumped!!!!
Megan's [my BFF] birthday is on Halloween, so I have to get to making her stuff.
About to be late to work, so I'll update more later...
<3*
LATER:
So I forgot. I recieved the sweetest compliment from a customer yesterday. She needed help with her album and Ellen and I ended up showing her the snaps [alternative to the post-extenders]. Anyways, she ended up thanking me a bunch and attempted to pay me. I HATE that. I always feel weird when people do that. I mean, I'm just doing my job. In fact, fixing albums is very theraputic.
Uhh...today, though, pretty much sucked.
The end.
I miss Brad. I think I post about this all the time. I'm sure people just want me to shut up about it.
......I need a *new* car. Something cute. I HAD my dream car and I really want to get another one, but I think my parents won't go for it. This sucks....
I miss Snow White! :'(

What the H-E-double hockey sticks?!
Mmm...Mountain Dew is pure bliss. A great treat after a long day's work. Notions was a *****. I'm just glad we all worked to get it completed. Rewind to when I got there: I started on Cassandra's baby shower card. I need to find out some things that she might need or would like, so Megan and I can splurge together on the goodies.
Oh, and I'll post a picture here when it's completed. I had to curl the paper clip all by my little ol' self.
What else....
School isn't as bad as i thought it would be. I'm actually thinking that my geography classes will be harder than my math. No bueno.
I think I did something weird to my right middle finger. It feels like I popped it out of it's socket and/or it was sprained. I mean, come on.....how do you sprain your middle finger?
Hmm....

Over the horizon
School lingers just around the bend. I HAVE to go and get my books for my classes, but not today. Today, I just feel like lounging around and doing nothing. I might watch a movie after I blow dry my hair. I'm feeling like a girly movie is coming on. I watched Casino Royal last night. It was pretty good, but weird. I'm not one for prequils to previously released movies.
One of these days, I'll be able to afford to go to the movies.
I can't wait until we get our *new* scedules at work. I'd love to know what days I'll have off and to start planning for future events. I'm desperate to get to the zoo again before the butterflies leave [I'm hoping to shoot for two more times]. I have a friend who works there and she can help get Brad and I in for free. We just have to pay for the butterfly exhibit and refreshments.
I'd love to start getting more things done around the house. This includes more layouts and completion of the Family Reunion album that I have yet to even start. I need to motivate myself to get my pictures developed. I have a crop to attend at the end of September [my VERY FIRST at Eclectica, minus the employee crop that we had before our meeting]. I think I'll just save the Reunion album until then. I have all of the actual supplies that I might need [again, no pictures] and I'm lacking the space to create.
I also want to get into making more things. I'm looking at getting into felt shapes and possibly marketing them off. I'm not sure yet. I'd LOVE to have my own side business where I could sell a few things, but, like I mentioned, I need the creative space.
I'm bored. I need to get off here and start a movie. Hope everyone has a great day!
<3*
One of these days, I'll be able to afford to go to the movies.
I can't wait until we get our *new* scedules at work. I'd love to know what days I'll have off and to start planning for future events.

Well how about that?
I haven't been much in the mood to start on any projects lately. I wish I had a great creative space, but everything's covered in a sea of distress. One day, maybe.
Brad and I got into it the other day. Well, actually it was I who started trouble. I don't know why I have such trusting issues. Then again, he doesn't really make it that easy.
I've been neglecting my coffee in the mornings and today, it was pure bliss to partake in my morning ritual. I'm really just wanting ot stay home today, but I know I'll probably be missed at work....due to me being scheduled 2-9. I actually prefer these mid-shifts, since I can sleep in until whenever and then work the night away. School, though, is just around the corner and I still need to get over to the bookstore to pick up my books. UGH! NOT a task that I'm jumping for joy about. This semester is going to be one of the most difficult, I can just feel it. I HAVE to get my Associates this semester. I'm really worried about my future and how I'm going to get into the teaching field. I have NO idea what to do or how to do any of it. I just think this is the ONLY thing that I can see myself doing for a few years. Maybe it's what I want to do and maybe it's not. I don't know. I just want to get my degree and then I'll figure out the rest of my life later on.
Okay, well I'm off to do some good for someone, I hope. Just awaiting Monday, after my first class, so Brad and I can go shopping for my books and just hang out. Hopefully we can get some lunch. I just like spending time with the one I love. It's refreshing...
My hair's a wreck.

I just plain LOVE jewelry!
Ronnie, I think you're my *newest* best friend. Don't know if you read this, but thank you so much! It means so much to me that you would think of me. I appreciate the earrings! [Then again, maybe you're just sick of the paper clips. Haha...just kidding....I think?]
Just for the record, one of our "ralatively frequest" customers to the store [I only say that since Mrs. Ronnie lives in JACKSON!], presented me with a lovely set of custom-made earrings. They are darling! I love them so much.
More updates: I just placed an order with Michelle for some stamps from The Angel Company. I have a few errands to run tomorrow AND I have another date! Brad and I went to India Fest at the Agricenter on Saturday, but it seemed more of a disappointment than anything worthwhile. I was looking forward to going again ater work tonight with Jennifer, if it was any good, but I ended up just driving home. I'm sketching out layout for my family reunion album, and I have YET to start on it. I'm also sketching out a *new* design for my room. There'll be MINIMAL space for storage, but at least it won't be as cluttered once I'm finished with it.
I'd LOVE another vacation!
Also, I have yet to pick up my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It sits on my bed.......waiting. One day. ONE. day... :(
LOVES!
That last one makes me smile. If only real cake could look that cute! Somewhere, I'm sure it could AND cost boocoos of moolah! =/
With all the product that keeps coming in to the store, I have to cut myself off somewhere. I swear I'm going to owe my life to the store and then some. I wonder....
Jennifer and I had Starbuck's this afternoon. I had to run over there and pick it up, but it was worth it. I haven't had Starbuck's in FOREVER!!! MMMMMMM.
I need to get busy on a layout that I'm doing for the store [just because!] and this stupid reunion album. I have to get the numerous pictures printed out and cropped down. I think I'll just wait until the end of the month to start.
A perfect zen moment:
sigh..

Overload!
*WHEW* The product never ceases! The store looks like it's done a 225 degree turn, although it looks neat and tidy.
I have never seen as much stuff come in as today....wow! I do not envy Brandy. [Sorry!] I'm wondering how we'll be able to fit everything in the store. Just a thought, we might need to expand again and take over Tech Tropolis!!!!!!! Muahahahahaha!!! We'll conquer the entire strip.....minus Booyas, OF COURSE! We could have a Booya's diner in the center of the store. Hmm...wishful thinking.
Pizza's cooking in the oven, and I'm starving, so this is all from a fatigued and hungry Megan. GOOD NEWS!!! Tomorrow, I finally get to see Brad and hang out with him for a little while. It seems our schedules continue to conflict, even when we try to take off days to be together. We're going to the India Fest at the Agricenter after I get off from work [5] and then Sunday, after Jennifer and I get off, we're heading back to the Agricenter and I'll be able to look some more.
I've gotten all that I care to for my Family Reunion album, but it's hard to just get motivated. After work, all I want to do is wind down and relax. I don't want to be creative. I just want to lay around or watch a movie, or check out the lastest and greatest releases out on the market.
I'm considering going to the church down the street for their Friday Night Crop [every other Friday], and just hang out there with my mom and her friends from the barn and whatnot and actually USE some of the stuff that I bring home. It's hard to believe that EVERY single sheet of paper or EVERY embellishment that comes home with me, I have an idea or a project in mind already for it. I still can't believe it. I need to set up a place where I can have all of my belongings and treasures so I can just work whenever I please. I'm considering taking all back to Brad's apartment and just sitting down with him and working on some things. I just need everything out of my "tiny" bedroom, in order to clean it and rearrange. I think I'm going to put my computer on my built-in desk and keep my supplies nearby. My t.v. will go by my window. My bed will, hopefully be situated so my room feels more open, and I'm going to try to get rid of a BUNCH of furniture and pieces. UGH!! It's just so frustrating. I would just like some helping hands to help move everything and pick up the floor.

UGH!
Gerkie [my cat] got into the attic and refused to come out from hiding. It was pretty scary not knowing where she was, but my mom and I eventually found her and brought her out. She was not very happy, but she seemed to want to go back. Stupid kitty.....

In the morning...
I'm leaving for Ottawa, Illinois.
I've finished packing, with the exception of the items I'll use in the morning and my glasses in the car. I'm going to leave everything that I bought for my trip, here. I'll make my album when I get back home......sometime next week when I'm off work and I have the time.
I'm going to try to get all the pictures I take developed on Sunday before I return home and get a haircut sometime before Sunday. I'm thinking shorter and bangs. I haven't had bangs since I was a child, probably 4th grade?
The ONLY thing wrong about this trip is that Tiffany will be going along with us. I know it's unreasonable to have EVERYONE come along due to seating arrangements, but I sincerely doubt that Brad would ever be invited.
Adios!

Just a little celebration.
On top of the hi-speed [Xipline] and digital cable, I now, as of RIGHT NOW have the internet upstairs for the first time EVER!!!! w00t. :)
Tomorrow I have to make a run to HL to pick up some things to work on up in ILLINOIS, since I'll be leaving on Thursday morning and returning on Monday. It's a short break, but I need it. I've been way to busy to get away from this place, and it's a good thing it's happening now.
I'll be bringing my UNCRACKED copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows [I lied, I've read the first page =X], HOWEVER....I must continue to read HP and the Half-Blood Prince, since I've nearly forgotten the second half of the book. Boo memory.
Tomorrow also calls for packing. IL, HERE I COME!!!!

One amazing year..
Alhough it's had its ups and downs, it has been a great year. Today is Brad and my one year mark....and I haven't killed him yet. [j/k]
I made him a few things for today, that I am very proud of. The first, a stitched drum on black cardstock. I took the template from a website [Sublime Stitching, I believe], I looked at the design and sketched it onto the black cardstock, where I then punctured holes through the design and handstitched the image. I am very excited that I did this, since he's a drummer, and I think he'll appreciate all the work that went into it.
The next thing I conjured up was this lovely card, that I HAVE to give props to Melynda for. It was her design that I scrap-lifted, where she used the Love, Elsie black & white doodle paper. Everything on my card is, however, drawn on to the white cardstock. I used the Making Memories mini heart die cuts [red & pink], green and pink argyle ribbon and green and white cardstock. Again, I'm very happy with the results.
Gizmo helped pose with the card.... :)
What a cutie kitty.

It's been a tough morning...
Then again, it's been a tough week. I woke up early this morning to get a jump start on my Spanish powerpoint presentation, thinking that somehow I could put it all together this morning and have the afternoon off to relax. Well, Micrsoft Powerpoint was never installed on this computer. My mom's coworker and friend is coming over to let me use her disk and install the operation later on tonight. I thought I could have a great, productive, school day, but that'll have to wait.
I stayed up way too late last night. I made two cards and two picture frames that I have to dispurse on Saturday and Sunday. I'm kinda excited and I hope that everyone likes them. They weren't difficult to create either, but I'm proud of them....for the most part. I really like this one:
I need to do laundry. Ugh! I have absolutely no motivation for it.

From last night's class..
From A:
To B:
Tonight's class was designed to help inspire you to think creatively outside your norm. I usually tend to do the same things, but I feel like I'm more inspired if I'm limited to certain things. Not sure if I'm really speaking English, but it was fun.
We were to look at a layout [from a magazine-this one happened to be an ad for hardware and shelving units] and use the layout to create our own. I'm still not 100% complete, as you may have noticed NO picture in my layout.
I'm looking to get the perfect picture to put there.
I'm thinking I'm probably going to do the HMITM challenge this week. Kinda nervous about what I'm going to do, since I have to kinda stage a photo shoot with this one....but at least I have an idea, which is more that I can say for some of my creative outbursts. I don't think anyone will be shocked.....
I need to get motivated. =/

OH MUH GAAAHH!!!
*SQUEE!!!*
Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou ROXI!!!!
[This means soooooooo much to me.]
It is framed.
Wow, so Roxi brought me back a "little" happy from CHA in Chicago yesterday. I think I made a scene at the store when she bestowed her gift upon me. Oh well, what can I say?
Today, I have a spa day at Serenity Spa in Cordova. I'll be going with my brother's girlfriend, Tiffany, for a one hour, full-body massage and a one hour facial. Holy smokes!!! I'm gonna feel like a noodle.
Tonight, I'll be attending a TAC party at Liz's casa. Jennifer, Sally, and I are all going to arrive together....meeting up at the store before we set off. I need to plan a day to just go and scrap, again. My album is due on the 5th and I only have 2 pages ACTUALLY completed with pictures [not sure if I'll be journaling on them, but I need to at least get the pages relatively decent before August, so that all I'll have left to do is the journaling and adding pictures].

ZOO DAY!!!!
Hooray!!! I haven't been to the zoo in ages, so of course when Brad asked me if I would like to go, I jumped on the chance to see all the cute and fuzzy animals. :)
Also, I have a class tonight by the lovely and talented Marci Lambert. We're creating a tag book for the winter holidays [yes, I know....it's July]. My mo is going to be in the class with me and it'll be the FIRST class that we've taken together since Card Club before I started working at Eclectica [a year ago]. Wow, thinking about it, it doesn't seem like I've been there that long, but I'm glad that I can say......it's been well worth it!
It has it's ups and downs, but all places do. Wait, where were we?
THE ZOO!
Yes, my favorite place to go in Tennessee. Seriously, Brad and I used to go almost every month, possibly twice a month when we first got togetherand it's been a little while since we last went. Apparently it's the perfect day to go, since Chelsea's taking her ADORABLE baby girl, Danielle today and also, my brother and Tiffany [his girlfriend] are also going. I need to start getting ready to head over to Brad's and get my camera charged [he has my charger over there]! w00t!
I need to start posting pics from my classes on here again....sorry, I'm slacking.
Many hearts!

Lately
I really wish I knew how to sew.
Two things on my *wish*list*:
1. Cute, easy-to-use, sewing machine.
&
2. Canon Digi Rebel....I know it's a long-shot, but a girl CAN dream!Some exciting news: May, or may not have, mentioned that there were baby birds outside my house in a looming flowerpot. Well, not only did all *4* eggs hatch, but all four of the babies survived, and have since left the nest. Hooray! I have enough pictures to document the occasion as well.
Other stuff....I'll be leaving to go to Illinois for a family reunion [first one I've ever been to] from August 9th until August 13th. I'll also be raiding my Grandmother's stash of awesomely unique and vintage items, possibly some of her felt collection as well.
Sometime this Fall, I want to get back up there and go to Chicago again. I absolutely love going up there and seeing all the neat things....especially the water's edge and Navy Pier.
These girls amaze me. I'm such a bright junkie...and lately, a button fiend, though I barely have ANY! :(
I've been to the site ETSY, and I must say, I'm not that impressed. I love that people can sell their stuff, but it seems overpriced and I just can't find anything I HAVE to have.
I need to get my Spanish homework/journal completed. It's due on Wednesday [miercoles] and I haven't even started, though it won't be hard. Also, I'm REALLY needing to get my room clean. I can't stand it anymore AND I have *new* furniture that my Mom and Dad bought me to go up there, meaning that my old sutff needs to be stored in the attic. My Mom got me a t.v. stand and my Dad bought a designer chair in Virginia that he gave to me. The chair is pictured in a book at work....or it may have just been in one that Cynthia bought that we ordered. Whichever...
I need to figure out something. PLUS I need to get all my scrapbooking stuff together and relatively organized, which could take....God only knows how long!
Oh boy. Better get started!
<3*

I've noticed..
I seem to use the same colors over and over again in any layout that I'm working solo on. Greens, bright pinks, and blacks or greys....sometimes blues are thrown in for good measure. I NEVER use reds, oranges, or yellows....and I seem to avoid purple altogether [minus the mini book I made for Brandy ;)].
I just wish that I could walk through the store and find something that inspires me to create that DIDN'T have a slight touch of these colors.
Even this layout has them....[NOT MINE, of course], however it at least shows signs of the colors I mentioned, so I'm doing better than before.
I have a *few* things I need to shop for today [I'm horrible when I go shopping :(] before I go in to work. Which means, I ACTUALLY have to go upstairs and get dressed. No more playing around on the internet. BOO!
My "OH MY GOD!" moment of today:
Tuesday, July 10, 2007
First ever!!!
Sunday, I had my very first cropping experience. I was so excited, I don't really know HOW I managed to concentrate through the morning. I packed up all my belongings [that I planned to use] and headed over to the store close to 1. I ended up cropping for a total of 6 hours, and I must admit, I was pretty darn proud of my accomplishments. Too bad I wasn't thinking straight and had someone snap my picture! :(
I don't think I'll be joining in on any of the crops that we offer at the store, simply because I'm not very experienced and I find it VERY hard to work under pressure. Plus, my "stuff" isn't like the majority of what most people prefer to use. My techniques are rather.....*gasp* NON-matchy matchy and I use some pretty interesting colors.
Who knows though. Maybe when I build up some more confidence, I'll be attending some crops in the future. I just hope that I don't take anyone's spot! =X
I still have to get this album complete BEFORE the 5th of August. I hope I can squeeze in another hardcore session.....possibly involve Brad with it, since it was originally supposed to be a couple's artistic expression. I seem to have taken over. Speaking of, I think I might have to see if I can find refill pages for the album online and ask Ellen to special order....IN A HURRY!!! I'm under a strict deadline.
I hope that everyone had a safe, fun Fourth of July. I didn't do much, just sat here at home. Wouldn't you know, I didn't see ONE firework on the Fouth?!?! I stayed in my house and watched t.v.
My sparklers came on the 5th, where Brad, my brother Justin, and I all set off a few smoke bombs and one or medium sized bottle rockets. I simply held only my sparklers. .....and my Pop Pop's [those little snappers].
Take care!
