Pencil Lines Sketch 102

I don't usually scrap sketches. Well... I try, and then things take on a life of their own. But this one I really liked. Here's my take on it.



Supplies: PP Danyeela, KI, Stickles, ricrac, ki stickers.

I am heading off to work. Another long, long day... not so much the hours, but the endless boredom. But, it looks like it might be a gorgeous fall day, so heck... it might just get busy at the store.

Have a good one.

Hey.... I scrapped! (und Stampin'Up Abend)

Somehow it seems like I haven't scrapped in ages. I know I have, but... just feels like it. Anyway, my neighbor had a birthday and I made this LO for her with pictures of her daughter.



Supplies: PP CreaMotion, Martha Stewart, Alphas American Crafts, Heidi Swapp, Fancy Pants overlay, trim and ric rac.

Off to work on a super secret project. LOL.

Oh, falls ihr noch keine Pläne für Freitag Abend habt... ab 20h könnt ihr bei mir noch lustig drauflos stempeln und ausprobieren, anschauen und... am wichtigsten... bestellen, denn wie ihr ja sicherlich erinnert, diese Stempelsets und Zubehör laufen aus. Also, schnell noch bestellen. Auch wenn ihr am Freitag nicht zu mir kommt, falls es noch etwas gibt was ihr unbedingt haben möchtet, sagt Bescheid.

Have a good one.

Shoes, shoes, and more....

you guessed it, SHOES!!!

As I mentioned, I bought a few pairs of shoes this summer. Big surprise, right?
Aside from several pairs of flip-flops and a pair of sneakers, this is what I got:


And


You might remember me posting about red shoes... oh, back in June last year, and February or March this year... when I got these

and these:

and these:


Well, I added to the collection.
Aren't these cute?


and these (in red, of course)


and my favorites:


As for my shoe dilemma yesterday, I ended up wearing my Kenneth Cole Mary Janes, but by midnight my feet were hurting enough, that I changed into a pair of brown Sketchers. It was dark, all the guests were pretty much drunk... nobody could tell the difference. I didn't get to bed until almost 5am and I can tell you... my feet are tired.

Now I am going to have myself some breakfast and enjoy the day.
Have a good one.

I never thought the day would come...

when I would say: I have no shoes to wear!

But alas, the day has come. I am filling in as waitress at the wine store tonight... fancy sit down dinner, lots of wine, the usual black pants/white shirt waiter attire. BUT... I have no black shoes. Oh, don't get me wrong, I have black shoes. Black stilettos, black sandals, black wedges, black high heeled boots, black cowboy boots, black pumps, black... I think you get my point. I have plenty of black shoes, but NO BLACK FLATS!!! (You might remember my post HERE. LOL But over the summer, unless I was wearing flip-flops, I was wearing heels, so my feet should be okay. However, I will running around with trays of drinks or food, etc. etc. on a rather uneven store floor, I don't think heels are a good choice for tonight.

So, I went to five shoe stores this morning, and yes, I found black flats. But, man, those were some ugly shoes! I just couldn't buy any. Too expensive for too ugly. I couldn't even see spending the money on a pair of perfecly plain, non-descript, boring, sort of comfortable, cheap flats, just because they were so... plain, boring, blah! I would never wear them again .

The moral of the story? I don*t think there is one, just that I really don't like flats.

Oh, and I think I promised someone I would take pictures of my new shoes (from this summer)... will get on that later this weekend.

Have a good one.

Nothing new this fine Monday!

I have been busy moving my scrap-space from my bedroom to the living room. I loved my little hiding corner in the bedroom, but really, it wasn't practical. I was so cut off from the rest of the house, that I couldn't keep track of the kids properly. And knowing Trouble #1 and #2.... they still do need keeping track off. So, after previously having decided to not ever have my scrapping space in the living room, because I am a messy scrapper and I wanted to have at least one clean/picked up room in the house, I decided differently.

So, yesterday was spent moving everything out of my big Expedit shelf. I put everything on my bed on purpose. I figured I would have to put it away before I could go to bed. Almost worked out that way, too, but the Expedit is such a pain to take apart and put together in tight spaces, that it did take me a bit longer than anticipated. Today then, I moved around some other furniture in the living room and started moving scrappy stuff into their new home. So far... I am really liking it. I still do have to make a trip to the popular swedish furniture store....LOL... I still need to get a little desk, but otherwise... looking good.

But that also means... no scrapping right now.

Hopefully by the end of the week I will have my desk and I will post pictures.

Have a good one.

Watermelon Chocolate!

or PopRocks meets Chocolate.

I am not going to say anything about it other than.... go and try it.

Milka Watermelon It is YUMMY!!!

Have a good one.

Technology sucks!

Can I say that on my blog? well, who cares, it does suck!

I got a new cell phone today. Well, a "new to me" phone. My old one was slowly but surely dying... can't blame it, it's over 4 years old and it's been used and abused.... and I was trying to figure out how to save up enough pennies to buy a new phone since I didn't want to sign up for another 2-year contract or whatever it takes these days to get a free phone. And apparently people like me who don't use their phone a whole lot don't even get a new phone when they renew their contract. So I just canceled my contract and got a prepaid card.

Anyway, a customer at my store was saying how he is so into cell phones and gets the latest and greatest all the time, so he has all these old(er) but still perfectly good phones sitting around his house. Well, I ended up buying one of them from him and I am sure it is a great phone, but man, trying to get this new phone figured out seems like rocket science!!!

So, I am used to Sony Ericson.... now I have a Nokia. My brother tells me it is a great phone. But... does anyone have any hints on Nokia? I can't even send SMS right now. It is driving me nuts.

I am going to bed. And my phone will be turned off.
Have a good one.
