... RANDOM STUFF ...

I've been a bad blogger lately and today is not even going to be stamping related... Sorry! Well, not really, but if you want stamping stuff - you can stop now. ;-)

I just finished reading a book last night called, "Remember Me" by Sophie Kinsella - it was a good chick lit kind of book. Easy reading and it was pretty good (in my opinion). She writes the "shopaholic" books and I've read all of those, too.

Oooh, my friend, Amber, told me about this website to get make-up for $1 - it's got awesome stuff. It's called eyes, lips, face. Very neat stuff. I seem to be into make-up lately. My husband isn't so crazy about the way I've been doing my eyeliner (loads of it). I also just got some (more) eyeliner at Walmart that's sparkly brown, AND new mascara that's supposed to highlight hazel eyes. It's nice, but I don't really think it affects my eye color at all.

Let's chat about exercise now... Last week I started this program called crossfit. Wow... it's intense and amazing. Today was exactly one week and I'm already seeing results. Now, my hubby can't, but I am sore pretty much every day - but a GOOD sore, not awful - I have to stretch before I get out of bed everyday. There's a site for the stuff we do if you want to check it out: http://www.crossfitcherrypoint.com/. Yesterday's workout was the hardest yet.

Um, I guess that's it. I have several card to share, but have to snap their pictures. I'm doing a lot of Christmas cards for my girlfriends this year.

Ciao!

... fall birthday bellas ...

I tried coloring on watercolor paper for the first time last week and really liked it. I made two birthday cards (I stamped happy birthday AFTER I took the picture).
The paper is really rust (old olive on 2nd card) and the patterned paper is from Basic Grey.
Thanks for looking!

... twins birtday invite ...

My twins are turning 2 next month and I wanted to come up with a cute idea for their invitations. My friend, Amber, suggested using the Just Rite stamper w/ their names on the outside and a '2' in the middle. Since there was plenty of room, I put "Happy Birthday" in front on each name above and below the 2. I used ripe avocado from PTI and their new polkda dot parade paper.
