Being on the other side of the counter, a different prospective i had forgotten about. While window shopping and hitting some smaller markets, I found the coolest little phones! You know like on key chains they guy said it was a promotional thing like from the princess phones when they came out.

It is funny now when we think of it, i know my friends i travel with window shopping look at me like what the heck are you going to do with that! But little do they know my brain starts rolling more when i see such things than when i am sitting at my desk trying to come up with a creation.

I think now, they dont even question they just look for me and i have never been dissapointed with what they have found!

Almost August

Wow where does it keep going! I have creating cards from some fun pics. Love putting funny sayings to go with them. ( believe it or not it is amusing!) I am looking into furniture which is my favorite to cover.

With school around the corner, i am thinking of my creative thank you and teacher greetings to come up with for welcome gifts.

I bet they get overwhelmed with paper!

Hope everyone has had a great summer. It was nice to actualy sit back and see it happen. Even though it was extremely hot, venturing out was nice. My own terms, my own hours.

Time Flies!

Where in the world did the time go! Soon kids will be back in school and fall and winter! Not that i will miss the heat.

I have had ample time to move boxes around and move them again. It has been an interesting discovery each time i open a box. Oh wow thats where i put that! fun stuff, new suff and old. Well not old but fun stuff that you don't use everyday.

Been creating card and book classes and ready to move on some time consuming things.

I hope every one keeps creating and having inspiration.

Home and ready to post

I have had photos sitting to upload to blog and website. After the pc struggle and the pictures i finaly have the patience to sit down and get this done. When you can't sleep and a little stressed art is fun! and it takes your mind off of things too!

PC Life

wow how attached we get to our pc! Well mine has been down and i go and just move my mouse to look and see by chance i may be able to work with it. I tend to say oh i can look that up nope! i forget i can't. How did we get along with out it ugh????? i miss it even though i fight with it at times too!

Grandmas

tonight i am pooped - i was carefully trying to speed read to get jd to bed., so i could have a few minutes to reflect my calendar of things to do. Jd said to me just as clear as day - I am going to give Grandma stella a big hug and tell her i love her. I bout fell over and said how are you going to do that? (since she has been gone since 03) he said when i see her i will tell her i miss her. I said how are going to see her ? he said when i go to dallas to see my cousins i will tell her. I said she isnt in dallas he said she is in heaven and imiss her.... i said yes in heaven and we miss her more than you know ( she called him her little man) I said she loved you very much, but she is not in Dallas he said oh.... but her sister is? yep her sister your great aunt! hmmm what he was thinking and trying to tell me bought tears to my eyes. I dooooo miss her more than you know.

Well we finaly got everything organized wth those docs in Texas so we will be going for sure the 25th of june to see if pass all of their testing. Keep our fingers crossed thats where we really want to make it happen! Plus i have family there! double bonus!

So this means i will need to prepare a suitcase of crafting!

May is down time.

well not for everyone - lots of events go on in May - retailers seem to slow down cause everyone is busy with grads, weddings, and proms and such. Gives us time to reflect on changes and getting things done, I for one has cleared out several boxes and have lot more boxes to go. been tossing things, separating and deciding what i can or will do with such found objects.

Quiet time

Well found objects can destruct you!!! Well i found many things in these boxes that were a get to projects and dreams. I found a block of time cards! i cant stop making cards with them. Now i want to make a book with them. Now to figure how to bind them. Well you can see some cards on www.12stepstampers.com under anonymous images. I think the Nick bantock - or distress pads would be cool on them.

Wind, Rain, Heat and cold

well it is no wonder everyone has sinus issues! Once a year is ok with me but this one has last forever! meanwhile while staying up i have been creating cards from some fun clip art which i have posted on the www.12stepstampers.com site under anonymous images. I am at least using up my scraps of paper those lovely scraps that are piling up.

I finaly made a decision to make an altered small book for the principal that is leaving our sons school. and some fun stuff for the teachers. It is getting down to the wire on the decision but i finaly made one! so i got to get to it! now! plus i hear it is going to be windy today and tommorrow ugh! not looking forward to that but at least it is not too hot or too cold but just right.!
