10th art journal card and.....

some help needed...



Hey ladies, hope everyone is having a good week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well yesterday was short skirts and flip flops and today it is snowsuit
weather! Welcome to Calgary! The sunny south is calling my name, at least
I think I hear it calling my name...lol! So this post is for two reasons, one
to share my 10th journal card... and... if you can see the picture I know it is small but it is
a picture of my studio that is a complete disaster!!!!!!! My friend Kathy e-mailed me last week and
we were taking about organizing our rooms and just different things that would make our rooms
easy to find things in and so on...... so my question to you girls is( i promised Kathy that i would post this so help us out!!!!!!!!!!)

What are some great ways to keep your 'Space'organized???

any help would be greatly appreciated!!!! Thanks girls!
talk to you all soon!

9th art journal card.....

"inspiration found" is the topic for this week... i am not

sure about you girls but i get so inspired by LIFE in general

something someone says, or does, or what someone is wearing

or even just my mood for that day... Love this subject there is so much inspiration all around us...

so where have the last 9 weeks gone???? I feel like

we just started this challenge and here we are into it

9 weeks!! Wow!!!! Lots of little things going on this week

, busy getting packages together for the next 2 classes as

well as finishing up the wall project for the March 24th class

(I think it is the 24th!!) if not then whatever the date is....

just not by my calendar right now! For all you girls that were

wondering if I got Keith Urban tickets.... of course I made sure

of that one! I am not so sure if the seats are the greatest but

I don't care.... Love the guy!!!! Enjoy your week ladies, hope to

have some new stuff posted by the end of the week... and for those of you that ordered packages they will be sent on Friday!!!!

Enjoy your day everyone!!!

Just wanted to share a little bit....

of what I have been working on!

This is the original picture, so it goes

from this...

then to this...

Then this...

This is The March layout!!!!!!! What do you think???

I have been playing a little bit with my new photoshop program...(CS2)

and also with some actions, which you can find here.... this particular

action is called Urban acid... you can download

some free actions and play with them a little bit!!!!! Love the look... The only thing

is you can't use these actions with Elements. If you need any more info let me know!

Let me know if you are interested in the March kit, i may have a few left after the class!

Thanks Girls!

p.s. Guess who goes on sale tomorrow????????

Week #8 journal card...

so you know that you have no life when you can hardly

wait for Emily to post her weekly card........ I

am sure that I must have checked about 5 times last night

then finally it was posted and there were already ten ladies

that had posted on her site and most of them had already

posted their new creations, unbelievable!!!!! Anyway no worries

ladies i am just as bad if not worse, only problem is though I am

not that quick to get it done!!!!!

This weeks prompt was....Something or someone you miss

No picture on mine, all journalling... I won't bore you with the

whole story but it goes something like this.... most of you know

that my kids are a bit older now, (the youngest is ten and the oldest

is 21) The thing that I miss the most is when they were babies, don't get

me wrong I love my life now but those were just the sweetest days

ever... snuggling with the babies, those sweet little kisses and hugs,

Wow I miss those days.... okay lets not get too mushy over here I will

be wanting another one!!!!! lol

just for the record I am totally kidding!

Love this challenge...

have a great night ladies, I will send out the March layout tomorrow or the next day!!

Hey ladies, just a bit of Saturday news...

Here is the new package available for sale... Remember the price is $23.00.

I have been busy today packaging and getting things organized for upcoming classes nd so on... Just thought that I would give everyone a heads up as far as the 'crop for kids' goes... I will post more info as it is available to me but for now this is what i know. It is a weekend long event, it is supposed to be the biggest one that Canada has ever seen! There will be lots of people there that are big in the Scrapbook industry. The event will be holding classes as well as scrapbooking time and I am sure there will be lots set up for sale as well. Registration begins on March 30th ( i think) Like I said I will post more when I know what exactly is happening! I will be having a class there for sure! up until now I wasn't sure if it would work out but I know that it is a great cause, hopefully there will be one coming to Calgary as well, maybe I better start organizing it!!!! lol. Anyway not much more for now but be sure to check out emilys challenge that will be posted on her site! have a great rest of your weekend ladies!

AMAZING....................
Have a great weekend girls!
