other than posting up a storm on MMM? LOL I have been very active on two other boards that are kit clubs. I have yet ot make the plunge and actually "buy" their kits but kinda like the style they have going. And as are smaller sites are just getting up and going. Have been seriously considering trying for a DT spot on either of them and so have been doing the challenges etc. Let me tell you some of them have pushed me hard. I need to get thing posted up on Photobucket so you here can see, but most of it I keep posting to MMM. I am not trying for MMM -- if any of you here are I'll be rooting for you. Anyone of you are as good as any others out there  BTW have really like that the MMMods are getting quite involved over there, hope they'll keep it up and not fade after Master's is over. I'd also like to see the Masters get more involved there not just on their Blogs --- well it's a new year and new managmente so we'll see. I have two ATC's to do, weeks 6 and 8 so plan on working on those this weekend. I have the beginnings of an idea for Ruby's altered art swap. I've also got this weeks Journey Class LO to do as well as post last weeks. Whew-- this week has been hard to scrap, hot and no time. TOnight going to see Josh Grobin in concert with a friend so should be fun. Ruby I tried my alcohol inks and LOVE THEM!!! they were perfect for a LO am working on. thank you soooo much for that rak. well guess will stop now before have written a book... take care all!!! |

Hey Liz - It's always nice to see you around! I don't know how you do it but you seem to have soooooo much energy. Where do you get it all?
I didn't try to enter MMM this year. With everything going on with my Dad and my broken foot making getting to my scrapbook supplies much more difficult than usual, it just didn't seem like a good idea. Now that this is the due date for the entries, of course, I'm kind of wishing I had been able to do it but I know there is always next year. This year has just been too difficult and I'm actually happy that I was able to see that and not add to everything that overwhelms me. Sometimes less is better and this is one of those times for me.
I hope you're keeping at it with your layouts and cards. Your work is always evolving and I enjoy all that you post.
Take care.
Hugs,
Sandi

Well -- on the scrap front this is the scoop -- got eliminated in the 6th round for a guest designer spot on one board, was still great to push myself.
I actually submitted two pages, for the first time ever, for one of the MMM book calls. won't know about that till end of next week.
threw my hat into the ring for DT consideration on another board.
To be honest not really sure why doing it but guess felt that my work was as good as anything I've seen and so Why Not? right?
Please tell me I'm not shooting for the moon when should be hiding under a rock LOL LOL LOL
Sarah... you have been on my mind alot lately and sincerely hope you are well.
haven't seen any LOs of your's on the WT Class? will you sign up for the new 1-in-48?
How about you Ruby?
Sandy how are things lately with your Dad?
Amanda-- have you been camping all summer
Mich-- I miss your posts --- how is your back are you SUPER psyched about he DT position you got -- please dish up the lowdown.
well guess I'll go back to house work "yuck"
see you all around soon...

6th round - wow! That's great that you made it that far in the elinimation!!! Your work is awesome and it just keeps getting better and better every time I see something!!!!! Congrats on the submission and good luck! I hope to see you in print!!!! Thanks for asking, Liz - I'm well. Took some time this summer to explore some avenues for our future. While they didn't work out and medically - UGH - was not easy, we tried and it's opened doors to other options for us. So yeah, I'm doing MUCH better and getting back into the groove of things. Work is starting soon and I'm NOT ready to go back LOL! I just got my scrapping mojo back - worked on the wood blocks last night and had a blast! Because of everything going on, I have been printing out the assignments for class and putting them in my binder. I'm ready, finally, to go back and do them. I have lots of good ideas for them!!! I'm going to finish my blocks, get caught on up on my atcs (I've been journaling daily, so I know where I'm going with those too) and then I'm going to get caught in class - WHEW! I'm ready to scrap!!! I also got a 6x12 album - so I'm intrested in trying that out - looks awesome. I already have my first page idea!!! I did get the mojo going - Ruby and I were in a Heidi Swapp Playing Card swap - it was fun. I like how the cards turned out.... sassymermaidfloating.blogspot.com/My chick's for my blocks are there too! Oh yeah, and today's our Wedding Anniversary and Dh has been out all am bidding on some side jobs with his partner LOL! I guess he brought me my breakfast in bed YESTERDAY lol How is everyone else doing? Summer is finally winding down and we'll all be back cocooned in our homes looking at the pretty snow outside the windows! SMILES! |

Sorry I haven't been around much again..... my great grandma passed away on Monday. Iwas unexpected, but then again, it was expected soon because she was 94 years old. So this whole week I've been wrapped up with funeral stuff, etc. Not fun.
I haven't mailed out the CJ's or recipes yet because honestly, that was the last thing on my mind, but they will go in the mail in the morning!
Sorry I haven't been around and I've been lagging on things! Everything just keeps happening so fast and I have to take time out to do something else!!
I did get a baby registry done recently though. If anyone is interested (you don't have to get me anything, it doesn't matter really)..... I'm registered at Target and Babies R Us. Oh, and Sarah... do you think you could find me some U of Michigan baby stuff? I'll give you some $ to pick it up if you see anything cute!!! Everything here is OSU and Adam DEFINETELY does not want that! LOL
