Monday Morning

Hello Everyone,

Well it's Monday morning and it's very rainy out,but at least it's warm. I know I'm a little late to get on board with this, but i spent a good part of my morning playing with the Big Shot,which kind of intimidated me,but I got a chance to play and practice, I used the extended cutting pads and the texturz plate with the silicone rubber and the text. plate. I made a box with the Fancy Favor big diez, cutting it wasnt bad but they should have mentioned that you need to use the 12x12 cardstock with this particular diez because the 81/2 x 11 doesn,t fit, I guess I should have known that by the measurements but as I said i'm a little intimidated by this machine, folding it was a little more challenging,but I eventually got it. I have a class using the Big Shot in March and want to be comfortable using it. It's been a productive morning as far as creating but now I have to get to the house stuff and pick up my son from school soon. I will put up the things I made when I figure out how to upload a 3 dimensional project.LOL. Thanks for visiting, til next time.

January just about gone?

Hi everyone!

I can't believe that January is almost gone! This month went by really fast. Not much going on here. My older son just went back to college this week after a month break and my younger son just finished mid terms. My hubby and I took the opportunity to go to the moveis last night.We went to see Avatar in 3D. We wanted to see what all the fuss was they won a few awards the other night.I actually liked it but it was a little long in parts, my hubby just said it was drawn out.The special effects were amazing! I'm glad I saw it on the big screen I don't think it would be the same on just a television screen.
I have my samples done for our February class and will be posting them soon. Check back soon.Thanks for visiting, til next time.

Sale-A-Bration Workshop

Hey everyone!

Not much going on at the home front, it did reach like 42 degrees, it's a heat wave. lol. Been playing with my new SAB sets Good Neighbor and Whimisical Words and getting ready for my SAB workshop I am having on Sun. We'll be doing 1 6x6 scrapbook pg. and two cards using the two SAB sets. Also been working on projects for my technique class on the 31st of this month. I am actually way ahead of my self with having the project samples done before each class or workshop, Im happy about that.
I actually got my scanner going also and will be able to post my cards and projects soon, we lost a lot of the original stuff that went with the scanner so I have to upload a little differently than I did before and I need to figure it out . Look for samples soon. I may even get some pics up. We'll see. Thanks for stopping by til next time.

It's still here!

My blog that is. Hi everyone, I've been way out of the loop it's been over a year since I've done this.I had my computer completely cleaned because we had got a really bad virus and needed to have it removed and on top of getting the virus removed they had to clean out all my info and of coarse I didn't have a back up disc,so I'm surprised this blog is still here. A lot has happened since the last post.
We moved from Leominster to Fitchburg, I have another new grandchild and I have a new niece who lives in Arizona. This new year hasn't started out too bad. I have one child in Highschool now and the other a student at Quinnsigamond community college, one son who has been driving the other now in the process of driving. We had our beautiful calico cat named Molly who has been with us for 7 years and we now have a terrier mix dog 5 in a half years old name Max who has joined our family. Needless to say the cat and dog do not get along, Max lives downstairs and Molly resides upstairs ocassionally they pass each other by and it's not good. I keep hoping that maybe they'll eventually get along.
I'm still stamping and I hold SU events every month ,I don't have my scanner working anymore at the moment but I do have a new digital camera which I have to figure out how to upload pics to this blog from so there won't be any pics of my cards or projects til I learn how to do that. I guess my son will have to give a crash coarse in that.LOL I am on facebook. Hopefully this year I can keep up better than last. we'll see. Til next time.
