Deeeeeeelicious! {www.weheartit.com} 

I hope you all had a lovely weekend. I have made progress in a lot of areas and also have fallen behind on some things too. There never seems to be enough time for everything, but tomorrow is a new, fresh start for me! Have a meaningful Monday, my dear blog friends.

Kitschy Digitals in Wonderland

Finally Ladies! I created a photo album with all the Welcome to Wonderland pics. Go HERE.

So i have to give a shot out to one of my class sponsors, Kitschy Digitals. Danielle Thompson is the creator of some fabulous digital kits for digital scrapbooking, blogging and printing! As you know, i love to cut out paper and layer and pop it up...so printing her images and creating with them is a blast. She gets it, you know? She is always doing the freshest and coolest images, i can hardly keep up! Danielle created this custom colored frame for the covers of our books and then gifted all of my students with a free digi kit download! How freakin sweet, right??! 

You can purchase Danielle's kits at Two Peas, purchase her prints and other handmade goodness in her Etsy shop Tiny Bazaar, and purchase more of her prints in her Kitschy Digitals shop!

Just look at this amazing prize ribbon digi kit!! OMG!

I would like to talk about another amazing sponsor for my class, Crafty Secrets! I already told you about how sweet Sandy sent me the new Alice in Wonderland stamps to use in my class. I was so thankful as those stamps MADE the book!

I have a few stamps sets left over from the Affair in Wonderland Boutique. See them HERE!

Also, do you LOVE Maya Mist? I do!! I have a few colors leftover form the boutique which can be found HERE as well. :-)

Ok, gotta get ready for work! TTFN

Somewhere, Over the Rainbow...

where birds fly.......good people do good things for others and i got to experience a little bit of it at Royalty Over the Rainbow. The famous Elena headed the entire thing and asked me to come and teach some techniques along with several other amazing teachers. We were all given an old readers digest hard backs and were asked to do something creative and fun that we might want to share with others...this is my version...

 

 

Cheryl Waters shared this great technique with me that she found here...so i tore out some pages and made several thicker pages. Then i misted, added some crepe paper fluff and ribbon.

 

I'm not sure what i'm going to do with the book...maybe a journal. But i do know that i'm dying to make another one! I'm goin book junkin!!

So i was actually home today working on school stuff and doing laundry and trying o feel better (i have some kind of head cold and it SUCKS) and my #1 goal today was to post pics of my Alice project for those of you that took my class last weekend...well, i left the project at work. Tomorrow...i promise! Thanks!

Can you believe that Easter is 2 weeks away?!! I guess if i want to make some Easter crafts i better hurry! Ugh, i don't even think we've packed Valentine's Day away completely yet! lol back to back to back...this year has been one giant blur so far.

I hope this week is full of rest and cleaning and laundry as the last couple of weeks have been nuts. So thankful for it all but a little fried. Make it a great week everyone!

I love puppy breath!

 

Yes, we have a new puppy!! Actually we have TWO new puppies!! Mom picked up her new pups a few days ago and well...it's all about them around here. There's nothing like new puppies. I had kind of a crappy day on Monday and i walked in the door to these puppies and OMG, it was like someone injected me with happiness!! They LOVE to give kisses and i love to receive them. My mom is on cloud 9 right now. She has 2 new babies to love and she couldn't be happier. Well, she might be a smidgen happier if they would let her sleep a little more. Oh these puppies...they are just what we needed!

Meet Molly and Buddy. He's the cuddler and she is absolutely WILD. I couldn't get a clear shot of her because she is all over the place! They are the sweetest Jack Russel Terriers.

So as you can guess, I've been a little distracted.

I have photos to post from my FABULOUS weekend at An Affair in Wonderland, i need to post pics of the Alice Book project, i need to get my things together for a weekend at Royalty Over the Rainbow,

and i need to finish up some really fun projects...

Go get your inspiration!

I am blogging today over on the TCD BLOG, so go get yourself some inspiration! Simple, yet classy cards are waiting for you...get out your TCD products and take a little craft break today. :-) And have a coke for me while you're at it. (I have given up dark soda...not so easy for this coke-a-holic!! This is day 2........)

March is here...

...and i just cannot believe it! What the heck?! Valentine decor...still up. And i fear the spring decor is buried under the Christmas in our "holiday storage"...so i'm not looking forward to that expedition.

Anyways, i am happy to share some pics that i took today of the "Welcome to Wonderland" mini book i will be teaching at An Affair in Wonderland. The colors make me sooooo happy!

I am so thankful for my new friend at Crafty Secrets! Sandy sent me the newest Alice in Wonderland stamps to add to my project...and they MAKE the book! Thank you Sandy...more teaser pics to come very soon!

I also crafted a little today...the result i will be sharing in the next couple of days! I am off to bed, TTFN!
