Classes start tomorrow

Both graduate school and job starts tomorrow.  No crafting in the past few days.  I did not sleep last night so I should have gone to the craft room and made a few cards.  I have a lot of prep still to do for both classes.  Crazy busy time! 

Busy day today

I had a busy day today with church and then graduation at SCC.  It was kinda cool coming in as a teacher and having great seats to watch.  Thank goodness it was a quick ceremony because it was hot in the church and we were packed in like sardines.  I have not crafted this weekend but I hope to make some crafts this week.  I had a comment left on my blog which was exciting.  Classes for both my job and graduate school start this week.  Just 6 more months til my graduation.  Yeah! 

Friday the 13th

Had a great time today at the welcome center at I 85 NC.  Lyc served waterrmelon again today like yesterday (yesterday we were at I 95 NC welcome center).  Driving both days almost to VA was long and I did get sun burned but we really did have a great time.  Phil and I went to Oasis and had a fabulous meal tonight as well. 

Having fun

Had a great day today.  I just bought another cricut cart. on ebay.  Lyc and I ate at a great restaurant in St. Pauls today and we will be off to Henderson for Watermelon Association stuff.  Having a blast so far this summer.  I plan to make a card for Mrs Bunch tonight to give to her on Friday. 

Not a winner :/

Oh well, it was fun anyway.  Now that I only have one class this semester hopefully I will be able to keep up the crafting and the blogging. 

Link ? I thought I was already linked.

okay here is the last of the cards

I have had a blast with this competition.

This card has the pink, black and green.

This is my kid's card.  I loved the cat and I added crystals for the eyes.  The green card base is a great color.

This is my bling/glitz card with the buttons and crystals

I had to make the card with the doggy relaxing.  I have three chihuahuas that know all about relaxing and sleeping all day and night.  They chill me out too.  Dogs are great for the blood pressure.  I started using craft buttons recently.  Kinda cool.

Scrapbooking weekend continues until Monday.

I have had a terrific time making cards, pages and I even made a tub for my husband.  Wait until you see it.  My husband is a fireman and he wanted me to make a fireman themed container to hold the plunger at the fire station.  I laughed while I was making it.  I wanted to put little chains from fire hydrant to fire hydrant but he said it would not be sanitary.  Well, here are my things so far for Mypinkstamper.com.

I want to write a special note on the violet to whom I will send it too.

This is my boy card.  I plan to ssend it to my nephew for his birthday

This card I made with the ribbon I had worn at pinning for my fellow faculty member.  I did not have a ribbon cart.  I used the serenade cart for the butterfly.  I am not sure why it is not as bright in the picture.  The antenas are made with black wire coiled.  I plan to write a little note to my co-worker with words of hope and encouragement.  She is having a tough time with her Chemo. (The card is turned on it side as well.)

Now my cards are turned and I am not sure how to fix them.  Is there a trick to cutting letters out of paper?  I have to redo a lot of cuts because the paper rips and bunches up with the cut.  My blade should not be dull yet.  If anyone reads this and knows the answer please post.  Thanks  :)

This is my husbands tub.  LOL

This is one of my favorite pages I made.  I love the green and silver.  I cut the tag with a butterfly to match the butterflies in silver.

I have two family pictures of the three of us laughing.  I did not want to put the pictures on the page yet.  It was from last summer.  We were outside playing with the farm animals.  The goats were so excited they kept fainting.

Oh No, This picture is turned as well.  I am not sure why this is happening.  I must admit I love this card.  The card paper reminds me of a beach chair.  Well, I will see is I can fix the pictures so they are correct.  I will also post the other entries for mypinkstamer.com.

Where have I been

Just to let you know I did not fall off the face of the earth.  I have been studying.  I have also been doing some  crafting.

I made these earrings and the card to display them on. 

I have really been on an earring kick lately.  I made a lot of gifts for my co-workers.  They loved them.

I made this wreath for the secretary.  She loves purple.

I made this to hang on my door at work.

I made an Easter wreath for myself.  I have been having a blast making these.  I have brought a ton of different colors.

Well this is what I have been up too since my last blog.  I also finished my semester at ECU.  I have only one class this summer, three in the fall and then I graduate in December.  I start my PhD fall 2012.
