Man, every time I have sat down to post this past week, it just hasn’t managed to happen!

what alls happened with us this week? hmm…

Well, Bug has decided she is going to open her very own art factory.

notice her shop hours, she says Mommy works better at night, so she must too… hahaha

Notice she is both open and closed from 7-8pm.  She said thats incase a good show is on tv.  Yep, I trained my little cookie well!

Now, don’t go thinking this is some fly by night business *hehehe*,  this girls got chops!  Check out those cupcakes she was drawing while I was cookin supper….

Speaking of creative. LOL…

I’ve got new templates in the shop,

Card Templates

And just added today:

I’ve promised myself to get to creating some of the things I have sketched up in my late night tablet…lol.

so look what else I have started. LOL…

Do you know who Erykah Badu is?  Well, I love her.  Seriously.  

The other day, I was cleaning house and had some Videos lined up and rotating thru my playlist.  I had the laptop ran into the tv, so everything was coming thru the tv and the surround sound system. 

So Bug sees Erykah’s hair and instantly falls IN LOVE…

She spent the rest of the day, running around and dancing with her hair in a “wrap”  (it was really her BLANKIE, but it got the job done.)

So for your viewing pleasure

Bug-adoo.  LOL…
She went from singing and dancing to singing the “SUPERMODEL” song and striking poses..
I hope you giggle at these half as much as I did taking them. lol.

Here she is Jammin before she realizes I went for the camera…

“ummm.. why do you have the camera?”

“so I guess your gonna blog this then…”

“Well, if your gonna do it Momma, better do it well!”

“Strike a pose”

“Super… model….”

LOL, have a good afternoon y’all!!

I posted this on a board today… its funny so I’m a repostin’

ok Im silly but I had to share.

I’m relatively new to all this stamping business. So when I was trying to build up some supplies I ordered tons of Stamping Up! stuff. Well, I got one of each of the colorsets of inks + refills. I asked around for weeks before doing so because I didn’t (and still don’t really) understand the difference in the types. Color was more of a concern to me. Well, since I like to hand color, watercolor, markerize (is that a word even?) everyone said I needed the CLASSIC ink. So that’s what I bought. Bought it ALL. LOL..
ok, shoot forward to last night.

Up until now Classic ink is all I had used. I used some Encore once, but it didnt feel like this.
Anyway, so last night I could NOT sleep again. I have no idea why my mind will not shut off at the end of the day! So, I decided to break out my new wal-mart stamps and make my family Christmas cards.
When I signed up to be a demo for SU! a few weeks ago, one of the things they sent me was a pad of white CRAFT ink. Which I used last night to make my snowflakes.

I have to tell you I just wanted to SCREAM OUT "wooohoooooo"

Up until now, Ive stamped and been like
"oh yay, Im stamping look at me make a pretty…"
but last night…
the way the craft ink FEELS when you stamp the paper…
the stamp almost HOLDS the paper screaming out
"Do ya feel that!? DO YA?!"
omg it was just AWESOME!!!

hahah! ok, sorry, just had to get it out. Had to tell SOMEBODY. My hubby just doesn’t get it. Although, when I was telling him about how awesome it was this morning he responded by saying. "That’s great babe. How much is THIS going to cost me?" hahaha poor guy.

Finally got to use my new cute little wal-mart stamps, and got my family Christmas cards done. woohoo!
on the side: this was my first time stamping with craft ink, and I LOVE IT! Now I think I bought the wrong kind of ink when I ordered all my stampin up stuff!
