Movie Monday 7-9

Well, I broke down and took the girls to the movies today. We saw Rat-ta-two-E (I am not French). I hate the cost of the movies, we usually wait until it is on DVD. I also had a nice surprise for me when I got home. My first DT kit from Tallyscrapper.com. The kit is great summer colors and she threw in some new Basic Grey Infusion to boot. Yummy!! Of course, I had to do a few layouts with it tonight. I am keeping this short, it is 2 am and I need to hit the hay so here they are. Night!

I got my GROOVE on!

Oh what a glorious day!! Dr. Pepper in hand, Almond Joy in my mouth. Yummy! The sunshine is out and I got my scrappy Groove on. I have created some awesome pages today, even if I do say so myself. I have been using the pile of Scenic Route that I bought at convention. Sorry I can't show them yet, they are for a DT gig at ScrappyGirlsDesigns.com. :-( Wish me luck!! Even if I don't get it, these lo's ROCK!! so glad my mojo is back, it has been on hiates (?) for a couple of weeks now. That is a lonnnnnngggg dry spell for me. I think it must have been all the dang rain! Tallyscrapper.com is rockin with new layouts, great upcoming chats with Donna Downey and Glitz Designs. Oh, my I can't wait to see their new products. Drop by ScrapbookChalet.com and Serendipityscrapbooks.com and say HI! Since I can't show the lo's I did today, here is one to tide you over!

So I've been tagged...

So I've been tagged...
This tag comes from Minda, one of my new mates on the design team at TallyScrappers.com.

1-post these rules
2-each person tagged must post 8 random(... hopefully interesting) facts about themselves
3-tags should write a blog post of these facts
4- at the end of the post 8 more bloggers are tagged and named
5-go to their blog and leave a comment telling them they're tagged

So here goes:
1. I am a first grade teacher and have been for 10 years.
2. I am domestically challenged. I can't keep my house clean even if I tried.
3. I don't balance my checkbook. That is why dh has his own, he can't stand it. I spend until it is empty. (such a bad habit)
4. I am a recluse. I guess you could say that, my sil does. I dont' get out and socialize much. I would rather stay at home and do my own thing (scrap)
5. I am an addict. I can't stop drinking Dr.Pepper. I drink way too much, but that is just how it is.
6. I moved out of my parents house at 16, still managed to finish HS and put myself through college on my own.
7. I would love to travel more with my dh. We would like to go to Greece.
8. I use a lot of scarcastic humor, some people get it some people don't.


Thanks for the Tag Minda!

Wow this is my lucky day

Can it get any better. I just got LOTD at ScrapbookChalet.com. Thanks so much girls, I feel like I should go out and buy a lottery ticket

Lucky 7's

wow this truely must be a lucky day for me!! I was selected Star of the Day at Scrapattackscrapbooking.com and asked to be a Seasonal Designer for Paperpopsicles.com. Both of these are new sites and you should really check them out. I hope my luck continues since I have tried out for a few more DT's that I am hoping to get on with. I actually had the time to scrap the last few days. I seem to be doing a lot of pages of my mom and son. I think it is because they are really on my mind a lot these days. Isn't it funny how we subconciously do things like that. Well that is it for now. See ya later

July 4th recovery

We didn't do much but we did celebrate the Fourth with fireworks and family. Now it is time to recover. It is raining again today so I am camping out at home. Going to dive right into some layouts when I get off of here. I recently maid the Dt at Tallyscrapper.com and I am sooooooooooo excited about that. Today tallyscrapper posted this link to a wonderful little store in Houston. May call for a roadtrip. Ck it out, it is awesome. http://tracykeith.typepad.com/tracy_keith/2007/06/such-an-amazing.html

June 10

Oh, what a fun weekend. I went to the Great American Scrapbook Convention in Arlington with a girlfriend. We shopped, ate, and shopped some more. I got lots of great new paper (you know you can never have it all) and some Maya Road flurishes...Yummy, I was out so I had to replinish. We had a great time. I am pleased to announce that my partner (Wendipooh13)amd I received 3rd place at scrappyarts.net. So excited, we produced some awesome lo's and mini albums in this contest. Addicted Scrapper and Serendipity scrapbooks are having their dt calls this month. I am planning on trying out along with tons of other very qualified applicants. Wish me luck!!!! Anyway...enjoy the rest of the weekend.
