I am going to start off this blog post by complaining! If you are in California, then you already know that we are sizzling out here. Historic drought conditions, scorching temps- we need relief! I'm this close to preforming an Indian rain dance, except that I know it would only bring on humidity. Since I can't play Mother Nature, instead I'll just pretend it's fall. I will imagine brisk winds, crunchy leaves, and cute scarfs. <br />
<br />
Today I took some much needed time out of my busy day I lit a pumpkin candle and created an autumn banner to help me welcome in the new season. So what do you think?<br />

So that is by post for today. I have a pretty full schedule, so I have little time for crafting, but I am excited to embark on my Halloween projects soon. Until next time, have a great day. </div>

<br />
So what do you think? I am so proud of the way these projects came out. I used the Echo Park "Hello Summer" paper collection to make the banner and the frames. I have had this paper collection in my stash for a while and I was so glad to finally put it to use. Other supplies I used were the coordinating chipboard pieces, some ribbon from my stash, and doily's left over from Christmas. I think this is the perfect decor to add some summer sunshine to my dark cavernous work cubicle. Soon enough I am going to kiss my cubicle life goodbye and move on to a classroom. Until that day, I am going to enjoy my cubbie while it is still mine and decorate it up. This simple project got my wheels turning and has given me some inspiration for future projects. <br />
<br />
So this is all for today. I hope you all get some inspiration from my projects and decide to create something using your stash. Have a great week my friends. <br />

We are so lucky to be able to host these events at Prima Marketing's beautiful warehouse in Chino, CA . The business is closed on the weekends so we have the run of the building. The employees do come in and open the warehouse for discount shopping, which is a hit with both the public and our croppers. This past Saturday was a hot one, so how perfect that we were able to come into a nice cool air conditioned building and hang out with friends. Here are some pictures from our event:</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I love these pictures of the ladies' work spaces. Crops are so funny because we all pack too much, yet we always forget stuff at home. The crop space is L shaped and it is almost like two separate crop rooms (you can tell by the lighting). There were so many raffles and goodies being won, bought, and shared...it was beautiful. </span></span><br />

I am lucky because I have a great family. We are a little special at times, but we love each other and we stick together. I thought I'd post some photos from Memorial Day weekend. I was sick, but I took some time out to go to the USS Midway in San Diego, Old Town San Diego, Universal Studios, and to the movies to finally see The Avengers. Thankfully I am feeling better and I was able to enjoy some of the holiday weekend. Here are some pictures of my weekend:<br />

<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">As I was working, I realized I had a lot of stuff and I had to decide on what I wanted to display the most.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I decided that I really wanted small pictures
of the hotel, which was a blast on its own, and of course I really wanted the park maps
because those change so much as the years go on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> The one thing I really wanted to add was our magic bands, but they didn't fit right at all. I added park maps, our ticket cards, some pictures, Not So Scary wrist band, Food & Wine passport, our anniversary button, luggage tag, baggage tag, ephemera from Simple Stories Say Cheese line, and my villains magic band charms. So what do you think? I love how this project turned out. I actually really like the small pictures that are not too overwhelming, and the Magic Kingdom park map with the new Snow White ride pictured. </span></span><br />

After a busy work week, it felt good to sit and make something. My husband was in his man cave playing a video game and I took the opportunity to escape myself. I don't know if any of you can relate, but I put on an old movie and worked on my project uninterrupted in total peace, and it was blissful. </span></span><br />

I have purged a lot, yet I'm having trouble finding room for the volume of stuff I have. It is frustrating because life keeps throwing me curve balls, and I thought I would have a gorgeous space, but in reality I haven't even decorated the walls yet. The first road block is that I got sick and I have spent a lot of time at the hospital recently then if that wasn't bad enough, my favorite floating shelves have been discontinued. It's just one road block after another. Anyhow, although I am far from complete, I thought I would stop to share some small elements I have purchased, or hung in an effort to get this place complete. <br />

subscribed to Stampin Up’s Paper Pumpkin subscription service for just about a
year.<span> </span>I honestly love getting this cute
little red box every month, but what I don’t love is how month after month they
stack up…untouched.<span> </span>I will admit that a
few of them I devoured almost immediately.<span>
</span>These always seem to be the ones that are either holiday themed, or some
kind of treat bag.<span> </span>The Halloween and Valentine’s
Day kits were just perfect for creating treat bags for my coworkers, which I
love.<span> </span>The November kit made the most
adorable pie treat holders, which I had on full display on my Thanksgiving table.<span> </span>Other than those, these adorable red boxes
just sit untouched.<span> </span>For $21.95 a month,
I wasn’t worried about it, until I started to do the math.<span> </span>These boxes just sitting in my closet unused are
worth $263.<span> </span>Can you believe it?<span> </span>$263!<span> </span></span></span></span></div>

We are lucky enough to live near the Prima Marketing Inc. headquarters, which is where are crops are located. For NSD we had a blast. 12 hours of crop time, contests, prizes, food...the works! Here are some pictures from the event.<br />

I got this embellishment center for Christmas, and I was so happy to finally get it up. Thank you to my husband who put it together, painted it, and hung it, I'm not handy like he is. Anyhow, I paired it with a small expedit cube to create a stamping station. I organized and have all my stamping supplies in one space. The notebook binders have all my small $1 spot stamps and other small clear stamps stored in trading card pages and the plastic shoe boxes have all my assorted wood block stamps. I also have other clear stamps in those two containers at the bottom and another black tote with all my blocks and stamps with irregular packaging.</div>

I have a huge pile to giveaway to some of my crafty pals, and some for the elementary school I'm at, and some for the Goodwill. My goal is to get it all off the floor, out of the other room, and into some sort of organized mess. Then I will go back and declutter more before decorating the walls.

Let me just back up a bit. Last weekend my husband and I were talking about what a big week we had coming up. Just thinking about everything before me left me feeling overwhelmed. I thought I would clear my head and go out to do a little light shopping. Well, I came home and what do I find? He decided that he would start on my new craft room and started clearing out the room and taping off the walls. AGH! I cannot have a home construction project on top of a huge week. I like organized chaos, but that is not how he operates. He wanted to do something nice for me, and how can I refuse his genuine gesture of love? So here are some before pictures. This is the kids' room with all of their stuff. When they stay over, which is often...this is their space. Aside from bedding and toys, I never really decorated this room or repainted when we bought the house. <br />

As you can see, the color is a neutral beige color. It is nice paint and the walls are in great condition (The house was only built in 2007). So I picked my paint color and he went to work. I chose Sherwin Williams Rainwashed and the rest is history.<br />

My current craft room is right across the hallway so I will have to move in and purge at the same time. What do you think? I think the color is so soothing. I wanted a color that would be neutral, not too bold, and something that would look nice as a backdrop with my black office furniture. I am going to touch up the baseboards later today, and then move in on Sunday. I will post pictures as soon as I am moved in. So here goes step 1 of reclaiming my space. I am on my way to achieving a beautiful new space, and I am happy and thankful my Sam started whether I was ready or not. Ok my friends, I will see you all soon!<br />

I have realized that I also blog because I love the support blogging
brings.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Currently in my life I am at a crossroad and I
am on the cusp of new things.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Although I

want to do…finally.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am fearful because

may know, I have decided to go back to school to get my Master’s degree in
Education.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As I prepare myself to get
back into the classroom, I find myself with a laundry list of tasks that I need
to accomplish.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This weekend I finished
up a mandatory child development workshop, and I have to admit that it is
exactly what I needed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The instructor
was so uplifting and positive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He asked
us to share with the class a song that we would pick if we had to assign
ourselves a theme song.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This just got me
wheels spinning and now I have to share.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We women are constantly evolving and I thought this would be fun to
do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have attached a couple of videos
that show my evolution.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Although I say
that I am resentful for wasted time, and I am.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I do have to realize that things happen the way they do, and they happen
at the time they need to happen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because I am so excited for my new career
path, I feel that I will give my all and my future students will benefit from a
dedicated teacher.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"> People don't know the struggles from which we come. Nor do they know the darkness that we have endured. This song just collects all those feelings and reminds me that I am a fighter and I am a winner.

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"> As an adult learner, it is so hard to split your time equally. You feel so selfish and you are so tired, but you just keep going because you cannot fail. I've taken time, money, and resources away from my family. There is no way I can just walk away now empty handed.</span></div>

Claim My Space? What exactly does that mean? Well, as the new year approaches, one of the biggest changes I
want to do is to claim my space.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
bought our house almost six years ago and at that time we put our life’s
savings into the deposit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We didn’t have
money to upgrade or splurge on new appliances; we were just so happy and
thankful to buy the house.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Over the
years I have decorated and we have bought new furniture pieces, but I have
realized that we haven’t really stepped it up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>My house is very neutral and clean which is what I like, however it
doesn’t have a lot of pizazz.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want to
challenge myself to actually paint the walls and upgrade and update some of the
rooms and bathrooms.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The two rooms I
really want to focus on are the guest bedroom and my craft room.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The guest room is filled with the kids’
belongings, but I want to update and decorate that space without a cartoon
character comforter. The second room I want to update is my craft space.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Holy Guacamole can this room use the
help.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I do have a lot of over sized
furniture from IKEA along with patterned cubes that dictate the color
scheme.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would really like to change it
up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Normally I like things tucked away
and not on display (i.e. coffee mugs, hair dryers, toasters, etc.) however I am
toying with the idea of installing a peg board on one of my craft wall.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I saw this picture online and it has inspired
me to change up a bit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

This year I decided to silently and anonymously put this on our receptionist's desk. It is funny to hear her keep asking who is responsible. I know she loves it and it made her feel special that she was thought of.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For this project I bought a mason jar, covered the top with Christmas washi tape and filled it with M&M's. The tag is a printable I found online, that I attached with some raffia. Top it all off with some ribbon and its complete. What do you think? </div>

Because I am frugal and don't like to spend money if I don't have to, I will use bags, boxes, and ribbon if provided. At Bath and Body Works, they provide free bags, tags, and ribbon and I will use it. For today's project I am making a teacher gift for my niece's kindergarten teacher. I used the bag and ribbon provided, but I also attached a handmade tag I made using Stampin Up stamps and tag topper punch. I also added a jingle bell for a little extra Christmas joy. Here it is!<br />

And that is it. Just a few small handmade touches really adds to the packaging and gives it a more loving vibe. I think this is thoughtful, considering the fact that the receiver of the gift is a warm and loving woman who inspires small children all day. So that is all my friends, see ya next time. </div>

For today's project I am making a teacher gift for my nephews teacher. This year he has a male teacher so the standby Bath and Body works gift won't work. For this gift I put together a great gift for a coffee drinker.<br />

I used a disposable food container and jazzed it up a bit. I adhered some patterned scrapbook paper to the top of the container using Mod Podge and then added some curling ribbon to the inside for padding ( I didn't have any shred). With that just little bit of prep, my package is now ready. To finish it off, I added 4 K-cups of coffee, some sugar packets, closed the lid, tied more curling ribbon around the container and attached a tag. And voile! Project complete. </div>

Here are some of my quick and easy tags I made using various stamps, card stock, and some Stampin Up punches. I think that you can make tags from free printable's you find online, journal cards from Project Life kits, and also the cut apart sheet found in most collections. My quick share is here to inspire you today to do a simple DIY like tags. They look great on packages as well as on platters of goodies you may bring to a holiday party.</div>

I made
tags using the Prima tags as my base and covering them using paper from the October
Afternoon Witch Hazel collection.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> Each one has a little flyer and a tag with a stamped sentiment tucked inside. </span>I then used the Tim Holtz die and put a tree on the back of every tag and left space so I can personalize each tag. So what do you think? Originally I started on a more creepy project, but I decided to scale back a bit and make something a little more cute. I am pleased with how they came out. I love the vintage postcards and of course I love all October Afternoon products. </div>

So that is all for today. I am going to package these up this week, but first I need to stuff the envelope with candy for each of the ladies and of course a thank you card for the swap hostess. I had a lot of fun making these, and I am looking forward to making more Halloween crafts. Until next time my friends.<br />

Hello friends! I say this every time, but long time no post! As we all know, life gets so hectic that tending to my blog becomes more of a chore than fun, but I want to change that. So just to fill you in a bit, as you know, I graduated and finished my degree which was huge in my life. So now I am finishing up some loose ends and embarking on trying to incorporate some fun in my life. But on top of that, I am trying desperately to incorporate exercise into my lifestyle. I have been going for one month already and I am doing aquafit aerobics which I absolutely love. I have broken down two barriers so far: being in a bathing suit in public, and going to an actual gym. I am terrified of both of those things, but so far so good. I have been doing pretty good and I am so proud of myself. So I thought I would share a couple of pictures from our girls trip to Lake Arrowhead. We had so much fun, and we are headed back up in September for an end of summer trip. Even though everyone who knows me, knows how close I am with my husband, but it is still good to get away with the girls. We stayed up so late, ate cupcakes, drank wine, it was fabulous. So I will leave you with some pictures from my trip and hopefully soon I will start on my holiday cards and other fun things. Until next time, have a great day! <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I have been beyond busy, but I have tons of crafty ideas rolling around in my mind. Right now, we have a girls weekend in the cabin planned for June and I am gathering ideas for gift bags for the girls. Pinterest has been my friend lately, but I am overwhelmed with possibilities. My idea is to make each girl a box that contains a mini bottle of margarita, lip gloss, sleep mask, lotion, spa socks, and maybe some chocolates. I am waiting for Bath and Body Works to do the 3 for $6 mini sale so I can get my shopping started. Personally I like the ideas of the mini margaritas, maybe even the mini Skinny Girl margaritas or little bottles of Moscato, I just don't know 2 of the women going and I don't want to insult anyone. I will keep you posted on my progress. I also have some other goals for projects to update my blog which include seasonal kits, cards, vinyl wall decor, scrapbook layouts, and small projects. I am a busy girl, with big goals and I feel excited when I get to update my blog. Well until next time my friends, you all have a great week. <br />

Card making is not my specialty, but lately I have been on a kick. Here is a birthday card I made for my brother. For this project I used papers from the Basic Grey 6x6 paper pad Bowties, a label sticker form Jillibean Soup, and Sizzix's Instant Photo Frame Die. Thats it, just short and sweet. Inside I made a pocket with the negative from the die and stamped it with Happy Birthday. I hope he likes it.<br />

As I said earlier in a previous post, I have been working on my design team submissions, and my craft room is a disaster. I just love to share the effects of my creative tornado's:<br />

In the middle of all of it, I can see what remains of my McDonald's Diet Coke from last night, and all the rest of my nonsense. That is OK, later today after Superbowl I will come in here and clean from top to bottom. If I don't get in here today, I won't have time until Thursday after work, and I can't have disarray all week. Oh no- step in now OCD.<br />
Until next time my friends- you all have a great day. Beandiphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01667707365828931170noreply@blogger.com0
