I'm Back!

Yes, I am still amongst the living. My friends have been giving me a hard time that I have not posted in a few weeks. What can I say, I have gone back to work for awhile. I don't like it but it is a means to an end. We are going on a cruise in April with friends of ours. I finish my contract the end of March and we leave on 10 April. I am sure I will be taking a bazillion of pics! I have missed cropping so much that I went to the Scrapbox last week for the coffee crop. I was so happy to be there. I did not realize how much I miss Jenn and all my scrappin buddies. The first thing I did when I entered the store was a big inhale to fully appreciate all the scrapbook smells. I was starting to get really concerned as my "Mojo" just wasn't there. I think the saying "use it or lose it" is very true (in my case anyway). The next day my "Mojo" was back. YIPEE!!! I had so much fun playing. I had chip tiles spread out all over and lots of bottles of glimmer mist, went through almost an entire roll of paper towels and was covered in glimmer mist and gold zing embossing powder. It felt like I was in bling heaven, what fun I had!!!! I had been wanting to try this neat technique I saw on the TA blog. I just loved the way it turned out. I made a really neat and different album with TA embossed Chip tiles. I will post a pic later this week when I have finished putting the ribbons and glitz on. Speaking of having fun, have you gone over to Debbie Schuh's blog yet to see the 3 projects that we will be making at Jenn's event in May. All I can say is I CAN HARDLY WAIT!! Go take a look, you will have to lift your jaw up off the keyboard after you have seen them. Absolutely fantastic! The photo tray is truly awesome!. I will add her blog link at the side and go take a look. Click on her upcoming classes and you will see all three of them. It is going to be a busy and expensive time for me in April and May (which is why I am doing a contract). Cruise in April, Debbie Schuh event the end of April and then Buffalo later in May. Thanks for reading my update and I will post on the weekend.
