Just to let you know!!

Tagged Again!

Bad blogger I am......I was tagged again and I'm just getting to post now {shocked face} I was tagged by Jovi and Vicki so I guess I have to share 7 'interesting" things about me.....hmmmm this may be a tough one.

1. I was born on Friday the 13th at 11:30pm

2. Aside from stamping {gasp} I am an Esthetician (no I don't put people to sleep in the OR, but I do on my table) which means I am licensed in PA to do Facials, Body Treatments etc and I'm a certified Massage Therapist.

3. I have 2 boys ages 16 and 12 (we'll see if they make it to 17 and 13 chuckle...)

4. I am the Queen (my son named me that!) of the house which apparantly really means servant!! ( he said that too!)

5. I am remarried for 5 years now (or is it really 15?! heehee) to a Wonderful guy!

6. I just love all of the Harry Potter books and can't wait until the new release in July!!!

7. And finally, yes I'm a geek.... I Love to watch reruns of Magnum PI, Matlock, Murder She Wrote, and the Rockford Files (blushing)

Well, I don't know about interesting but now you know some more about me! No laughing now!!!

Tagged!

I know, I know.....it's been a few days....so sorry :( I was tagged last week by two great friends Patti and Cathy. Yeah, I'm late and since this has died down what I will ask is for you to check out the blogs I have listed to the right. Happy surfing and I'm going to update a couple more entries later today :) !!

New Banner!!!

Do ya like it? I LOVE it!!! No, I didn't make it myself.....I have no clue where to start when it comes to things on the computer (paper arts is my thing!) So, as I was blog reading last week, I came accross this post by Joan about her new banner. She said it was very easy to install herself, so I figured let me give this gal a try. So I contacted Jen last weekend, she responded immediately with instructions on what I needed to do. I didn't do too much until this morning.

Well, let me tell you this girl is AWESOME! Look at what she created for me in a few hours. Talk about stellar service!! She has such an eye for what works and what doesn't. I also got 2 watermarks to go with my new banner!! {keep an eye out for them..wink} If you want beautiful work and super service contact Jen at Jots & Pixels you will not be sorry!

I will also confess that I am severely tech challenged, the only Html editing I know how to do is the link thing....(yeah I know it doesn't get me too far). But, I didn't have to shed a tear, pull a hair or do some other self-inflicted damage to myself, because Jen provides the BEST instructions for adding your banner and removing the border thingie and if you get the watermarks from her as well, instructions are included for them too!!
Yes, I'm singing her praises!!! If you're in the market...Contact Jen!!
Thanks Jen!!

Makin Changes

Hi All! Nothing exciting to share right now, but just wanted to let you know that I am making some layout changes.........so stay tuned {wink}

Out Shopping

I had to drop my older son off for a language lesson, and there was an AC Moore nearby....sooooo...I figured what the heck and decided to run in. I spied the clear 1$ stamps that were all the rage at Michaels a few weeks ago, so I dug through the still full bin (they must have just put them out!) and this is what I picked up.

I also picked up a couple more blocks and a cool little tool from Pebbles Inc. It will hold pom-poms for chalking, painting or whatever!

I then spied a 50% off rack of Inkadinkadoo stuff! Note cards and stamp sets to coordinate. Very easy to put together. I need to make a quick set of cards for my husband to give as a gift tomorrow...I can probably get these done in about 20 minutes.

Aren't they cool? The notecards (set of 8) came to $2.50 and the stamps were either $1.50 or $2.00...I thought I got a great deal!!! If I have the energy to photograph the finished cards I'll post tomorrow.

Till then........

I added a Picture

Well, I added my picture to the blog.....I am not photogenic at all!!! But, yes this is me, right now, today! When reading other blogs, I do like to know what the author looks like, so to practice what I preach, I took the plunge and added mine. I wish someone would photoshop me! But then that really wouldn't be me right?! Well, at least you now know what I look like!

Tini's & Wine

Yesterday my Mother and I went to an Antique & Craft show at The Willows Mansion in Radnor, PA. Lots of beautiful handmade items from a variety of crafters. I had to reserve a lot of self control while looking around.

But I spied this little beauty and could not resist temptation

Handpainted 'Tini glasses!! I love whimsical crabs, so I had to buy 2. Gotta have a matchin' pair ya know! I don't indulge in 'Tini's too often but when I do a Cosmo is my choice!

My Mother got a couple of wine glasses, so I'll share that one as well

Aren't they adorable!! Of course the ribbon will probably end up on a creation of some kind {wink}

Well today my Husband and I celebrate our 5th Wedding Anniversary (my second marriage) Yes what fools we were to get married on April 1st!!! My whole family is going out to dinner with us.....We went out by ourselves last night {I had 2 Cosmo's..gasp} And I think another one or two are in order for today!!!

I'm working on some more stuff and hopefully will have it ready to share tomorrow!!

Have a super Sunday!
