DingBat Font Challenge


My first monthly challenge for the Scrapbooking Swede Design Team I'm on is to use a DingBat font on a layout as an embellishment. Here's what I came up with.

Home from the Convention!




Well, I'm home from the CA Holstein Convention. Tim was in charge of it which translates to me being in charge!! LOL!! It went great, but I was anxious to get scrappin while I was there. I went to 3 scrapbook stores. Two in San Luis Obispo and one in Santa Barbara. I'm almost embarrased to say how much money I spent, but I'm proud to announce that I don't think Prima makes a flower I don't own now!!! LOL!!!! So, look for a LO with some Primas on it soon!! I also picked up some 3Bugs in a Rug paper. SUPER CUTE! But the most exciting thing was getting home and having my Timeless Inspirations January kit waiting for me with all the Junkitz Love Line papers in it!!! Oh gosh, they are fabulous!!

GOOD news! I've done 4 LO's since the New Year! And an altered project. If I could figure out how to post pics, I would. Stay tuned. Things are finally settling in my life. I am almost done witht he Holstein Convention. School committees are over. The play is over. But my house has been eaten by the scrapbooking supply monster and I can't see the floor! GOOD TIMES! I love my life! how did I get so lucky as to be bale to scrap all day whenever I want? I'm so blessed.

Hi Timeless Inspiration buddies!

I'm updating just for you! It's been ahile since I updated, but I think I should go ahead and get busy on this stuff! So, watch my blog and see what I have to say, probably nothing much! LOL

I feel so behind

Really, I should just delete this blog. It just wastes my time. I have so many things going on in my life right now, I'd love to just tell everyone that I don't have time for their issues and this is what I'm focusing on. The most frustrating thing is that I really don't see me scrapping until February with everything happening right now. Accreditation team for CVC, The Trial of the Big Bad Wolf at the Enchanted Playhouse, The CA State Holstein Convention, AND the book I'm writing for the older gentleman - - OVERWHELMED. And which one do I get rid of???? UGH! And I do not have my Christmas cards done - DAMN! I've got to get it together. I better go get ready for BSF, which I love and brings me great peace; however, I didn't do my lesson. TYPICAL! Hey, how about those Fresno State Bulldogs!!!!!!!!!!!! GO DOGS!!!!!!!!!!!! USC was scared!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See, I told you I didn't have time for this!!! One month later and I'm posting another entry! Oh brother. So here's has what's been going on since my last/first entry. I auditioned for a play and got the part. Yes, that's right, adding to my resume of goofy things I do. Madalyn also got a part, so that is the only reason I said yes to the play. But I have to admit. It is really fun! Do I have the acting bug yet? No. It's a huge commitment. But I can see Madalyn with the bug, no doubt!

I also entered a layout in a sketch contest at http://www.3scrappindivas.com The October sketch contest. This is my first "contest" outside of the eBay catastrophe, I've entered. I've decided to take my scrapping skills to a new level. You know how I get when I set my mind to something!!!! I'm going to submit for HOF this year, but only for myself. I know I won't win, but it's one more thing I can say when I do my acceptance article . . . ."After 52 years of submitting, I am proof that an 89 year old great grandmother still has IT!" I can hear the presses howling now!!!!!!!! But I don't give up, and I won't give up. Ok, maybe I'll miss a few years, but darn it . . . . I will be a famous face someday! Just watch!!!!!!

Officially Nuts!

Like I need one more thing to do. Does anyone else enjoy self destruction like I do? Why do I always seem to get myself into things that take up my time? Just when I get to a manageable point in my life, I add something entirely wacked out to it! Like this blog. I don't have time for this. But I do. I need to make time to record my thoughts, my emotions. Maybe when I look back on all of this I can get a clear picture of WHY I choose to involve myself in too much. But I did say no the other day. It didn't feel good though. it was an activity to benefit my son. Oh well, it wasn't that awful. I can always pick it up a different year. It's amazing how time flies.
