Got this at the OC Fair

:-)

New EK Punch (Joanns)

Walked into Joanns today and found some new punches!!!!!!   These four stood out.  You can use them as a border punch.... but the purpose of this punch is to create a rolled up flower. 

Taking the Beagles out

We recently drove all the way to Big Bear to find a rabbit hunting trail.  Never did find it.  We relied on the park ranger...but they were closed.  But that's ok, we found a small alternative trail for the dogs. 

And yes... dogs do get car sick.....

Renegade Craft Fair

I recently went to the Renegade Craft Fair in LA.  I missed it last year and really wanted to go this year.  Well.. my car got stuck and I had to call AAA to pull me out.

 There were some food trucks.

Lots of neat booths selling nifty handmade stuff.  I made an apple coozie. :-)

What I notice for CHA-S

The theme is either the holidays (Halloween or Christmas) or it's some sort of a retro farmer-ish theme...

Tim Holtz Goodness

Went to the Carson Stamp Expo this past weekend.  I went because Tim was there!

Sew easy

Decided to buy this to give this a try.... We R Memory: Seweasy

 The tool itself is a handle with a regular stitch piercer.  The bottom of the tool is used to store needles.  Everything is basically plastic.  There are many different interchangeable heads to do different designs. 

 The needle... or spikes... are actually quite sharp!  In order to change it out, you twist the top.  That is how it locks in.

 The company suggests using the their mat.  I have the Bazzil mat, so basically the same thing.  Do not use a mouse pad.  Someone did and the spikes broke off.

You just basically drag the tool... well roll.... and then you sew the design (or create a faux stitch by drawing it in).   I got lucky with this double piercer.  The paper is really thin, so it ripped when I used a different design :-P  So don't use super thin paper (aka: notebook paper).

Shoe Drama

Went to the mall to buy my Hello Kitty purse...walked by the Vans store and saw the shoes!  The hardest part was debating which one to get... but Hunny convinced me to get the shoes.  So, I went back to the mall and found that they were sold out of my size.   They were even sold out online!  Called up every single mall and they were sold out! ACK!  Found that Journeys online had them so I ordered a pair.  I was soooo happy when the UPS guy showed up with my box.  I got size 7 alright...size 7 in men!!!! ACK!  Apparently Vans is a unisex co.  I was sooooo mad and soooo sad.  A couple of days later, I found that Hot Topic.com carried the shoes.  So I ordered size 5 (6.5 in women).  Once it came in, it fit perfectly... I am one happy girl! :-)

What benefits allows us to do...

Get our wisdom teeth pulled!  *or as KevJumba puts it... stupid teeth*

My Hunny got all 4 pulled and I got the top two pulled *bottom two pulled 3 years ago*

Love the Tokyo Stores

My current favorite store is the Tokyo store at the mall.  They have cuuutttteee stuff... me stuff.  Recently got this stamp box/set.  Everything is in Japanese... so I have no idea what is on the stamp....

 So I am using the icons to guess what they say...

 telephone...address...king?....birthday.....love....mix between stink face and a fish....lock...book...pencil...food....sports...movie...music....microphone...party hat....sunny...cloudy....car....sleepy....happy flower :-P

happy.......very sad.......mad......got 100% happy......shocked.......somewhat sad......in love (see the hearts)......excited....winking at you....secret!.... sure it doesn't stink.... hello!

Love them!

Hello World!

I really need to update this blog.... but then again, I need to scrap more!  Haven't created anything in forever *sadness* but that's ok... I will soon enough! 

Got this necklace from my friend's Stella and Dot trunk show... well I bought a trio ring set and this necklace (from her sample sale).  I have been eyeing this for a while and finally bought it!  :-)  This will look great with my tank top during the summer.

Well, summer is just plain odd right now.  But then again, it is June gloom.  It is warm during the day and freezing at night!  Which sucks because I work mainly night shifts at Disney. 

Rented Due Date last night... it sucked, don't watch it. 

Saw X-men: First Class

Saw at the AMC today and I like it! :-)

Robyn's card class

My card and a tiny sample of cosmopolitan.  It was not that bad, my first cosmopolitan.

Stephanie Ackerman's class

Just some cute tags that we created using her stamps.  She pre-painted the tags for us. 

Donna Salazar's class

 For Donna class, we did a lot... and I do mean, a lot of spraying.  But still looks nice.  She uses a lot of chunky handmade flowers.  But I didn't really like my flowers... plus, I didn't see the final project.  So I just did my own thing.

Jennifer Priest's Class

 This was a very cute project...but then again all her stuff are super cute!!!!  This box sits perfectly on my bookshelf next to my picture *taken by my friend JP*

 Here is the little album in the box.  Technically we were suppose to cut out the "Just married".... but I wanted use it as is.  :-) 

Some pages...  Overall, cute, cute, cute! :-)

Marah Johnson's class

 For this class we used Twinkling H2O.  You can see in the picture but it twinkles :-)

The project came in a kraft envelope that she spray painted.

Artful Horizon

I recently attended a scrapbooking retreat in Palm Springs called Artful Horizon.  I had a nice time.  It was great to see old friends and make new friends.  :-)  The classes were great. 

 My drive was extremely long!!!! 2 and half hour on the freeway.... with lots and lots of traffic!!!! I should've left earlier since it was a holiday weekend... but I totally forgot about it.  I was greeted with this.  :-)  Lots of goodie in the bag. 

 Me and Jennifer

 Me and Melissa

 Lunch on Saturday... yum!!!!  Sunday's lunch was ok.... 

Looking out from the hotel.  Nice view!  They had a really nice pool.  I wanted to go swimming... instead I stuck my feet in the water.  :-P

Ren Faire

This year we went to Ren Faire with our friends JP and Jess.  They were Ren Faire Virgins :-P  I didn't dress up.  My costume was in storage and I didn't feel like getting it out.  I had a nice corset-like top.  So, close enough.  We went in the afternoon because we wanted to catch the Moonie and Broon adult show.  Every year, we would try and catch the show, but would get really tired and go home early.  This time, we did not go early. 

 Hunny conquering the giant with one arm.  Love my buff Hunny.

The show was funny.
