Looks like I will be looking for work again...

The store I was working at closed as of this past Saturday. It was really quite the surprise... my boss didn't tell me until Friday afternoon. Geez... you'd think she'd give us a bit more warning. Anyway, I didn't lose my job per se, because I am supposed to keep working at the other store, but with reduced hours and a 30 minute commute (by car) rather than a 5 minute walk... it just doesn't add up. So I will have to see....

BUT, on the bright side, I did get another LO done. Not like I don't have lots of free time now.



Well, it doesn't show up terribly well... okay, not at all, but the red letters are chipboard letters that I painted red and then used crackle accents. Love that stuff.

Now I am slowly getting into the christmas spirit. I am all ready to set up my Christmas tree this coming weekend. The girls and I are thinking of doing a little thanksgiving dinner for just the three of us on Saturday, so I am hoping I can get the tree up Sunday. I am also working on Christmas cards. I made a super cute Thanksgiving card, but obviously there aren't too many people here in Germany I can send those to, and it is a bit late to send the to the US... I know, I was slacking there... Anyway, Christmas cards... need to be done by this weekend, too.

That's it, have a good one.

Exhausted....

Freitag Abend hatte ich endlich meinen Stampin'Up Minialbum Workshop.

On Friday night, three lovely ladies came to my house and we made this little Album:






Die Alben wurden aus dem Stampin'Up Simply Scrappin' Kit "I wish" gefertigt und sind perfekt als kleines Geschenk oder für die besonderen Weihnachtsfotos. Wir haben recht lange gebraucht um fertig zu werden. Am Ende waren wir kaputt aber zufrieden.

We used the Stampin' Up Simply Scrappin' Kit "I wish". It took us quite a bit to get the albums doned and I was exhausted, but everyone was happy with how it came together. Now I cannot wait for them to fill the albums with their own special pictures.

Falls ihr auch Interesse an diesem Minialbum habt, einige Kits habe ich noch. Im Kit sind eine Schritt-für-Schritt Anleitung und alles Material enthalten (plus reichlich extra) um das Album fertigzustellen. Kosten: €25 plus Porto.

Have a good one.

Hey... I scrapped!

I know, I posted the STM-G LO just a couple of days ago, but really... that LO has been done for a while. And I hadn't scrapped much since then. But, this weekend I really got something done. Can't show most of what I did, but this one I can...



It is an old picture and old paper and other stuff, but I love the picture and the paper... well, it all just came together.

Starting this week, I have to work more hours. Not quite FT, but close... not what I bargained for when I signed up for 15 or so hours on two days a week. Only until Christmas, but oh well... good thing I have most of my Christmas shopping done and then there is always online shopping.

Have a good one.

Scrapping the Music-Germany....

die zweite! Schaut mal HIER

Dies ist mein Beitrag für dieses Lied.

My LO for this song. I love the beach pictures from this summer.



Other than that... I am a bit under the weather, so between trying to sleep and trying to stay awake... that's pretty much how I spent my day.

Have a good one.

Lazy Blogger....

that's me!

Haven't been feeling too well, and the icky fall weather is making me want to crawl into bed.

BUT... I got some new Stampin'Up Goodies in the mail today. Maybe I can come up with something to show.

Have a good one.
