Scrap Happy Girl

Not bad a bad looking couple! OK so I'm not the kinda of girl who generally paints her nails,(basically because my nails are very short) but since I've become a southernner (in training) I have so noticed that all the southern women paint there toe nails. AM I wrong? Now I'm not saying do as the Romans do in this case, but I must admit it does look better than my naked toe look. And with that I must ask myself, am I being cheesy when I say I really like toe rings with the painted toe? Are they still somewhat fashionable(toe rings)? It all comes down to time (do I have it, do i have the time to paint my little pigs) and will I look like a total dork? I mean I'm not in my early 30's anymore I'm (on Monday) thirty something... and holding (officially) and I feel that its my responsibility to not look shlumpy (did I really just say that?) let me retract. I don't want to look like a 35 year old wanting to appear like she's 28 or younger. kwim ? So I'm...

here is a close up of the stamps

Ok So I'm going to trust you all know the cow story about when I first moved here. I was out front hanging a wreath and herd a peculiar sound and got "spooked out". It was just a cow yes I actually got spooked by a cow's moo. Side note: city girls often do not not hang in the pasture. Well the moo's are back at it this morning I can here the thing through my window (I'm secretly afraid to look, maybe one got loose and if I look at it directly it would maybe charge the window or something equally dramatic) So Mr or possibly Mrs cow is being noisey and sounding like a cat who was not happy. This is probably one of the few times I've heard (ha ha) the cows since my grand adventure way back four years ago. I guess you could say that the sound gets to me because it's not and actual moooo , it's more like a guttural low moan, than the moo I was taught as a child. It's still a bit freaky is what it is. Cow's mooi'n freaky I tell ya ju...

so I was at Micheal's and picked up a few things like the 1 dollar stamps! I bought ONE extra of all they had the even better news is Dh bought some to (don't know how many) but she did - Isn't she so sweet? So there will be extra : ) Also I've signed up for a type pad blog soon as I get that going I'll post the address and we will try it on for size. I hope you all had a great weekend we did (but I'm exhausted). I'll share some photos and stories later in the week. blessings A

ALL ABOUT ME here it is some all about me questions. My cousin and I do this all the time. I've been waiting for a good one so here it is. I have a few to add (I'll do that after we whittle this list down). Some of the numbers are out of sequence because I edited the list already, but not enough so I'll ask for some help. I like it the way it is but I don't think it's going to fit in my recipe book we may need this to be our summer project or small chip board book later. Maybe we could call it circle of friends or something. 4. What is your favorite TV show? 7. What is your middle name? 8. What food do you dislike? 9. What is your favorite CD at the moment? 11. Favorite sandwich? 13. Favorite item of clothing? 14. If you could go anywhere in the world on vacation, where would you go? 15. What color is your bathroom? 17. Where would you like retire to? 23.

Have a GREAT Memorial Day weekend! Start summer off right, eat plenty, play games, spend time with your family and enjoy that summer is here. Sizzix Manny scrapers on places like 2 peas and such would say that the sizzix is pretty much dead and I disagree. I recently purchased a clearanced sizzix die and this it is one of the cutest things I have seen for a while. I love the window not only does it remind me of my own home but it's one of those shapes that are timeless. Arched windows have been around for a couple of years right? So I'm sure I'll use it in more ways than just on my greeting card. I'm also sure that I'm not going to quit using my sizzix any time soon. I must admit since I started using my cuttle bug I have thought about getting rid of my side kick. While this weekend promises to be filled with the first taste's and smells of summer and way to many activities than I can count on, my loving sister has decided that the family should celebrate my...

Like all projects I look at them after I'm done and want to revise them (I know I've got to stop doing that) I felt like something was missing on this card so I went back and added an insert inside the card as well as a few words on the outside.
