ok, dimitra, here you go!

i'm posting on a new blog for the moment...

you can find me here!

it was dimitra's idea i do this!

i just asked her to update hers!!

i.love.john.mayer

saw john mayer last night. amazing show. he's one of my favorite artists. he played for two straight hours before his encore... edge of desire. great song. great show. great time!

oooh, i just love 7Gypsies

so, one of my all-time favorite companies is having a giveaway... and if you watch this video, you'll see why i'd want to win something from them. and, if you know me, you know, whether i win something or not, 7G is my preorder list at my fave store!!

the amazing journey!

where do i begin? tim holtz. yes. teaching at my LSS, buffalo stamps and stuff. tim is such an inspiring artist, innovator and teacher. he designs so many fun products to inspire creativity... and i had the chance to take a couple classes with him this past weekend. and mario... that guy is super organized. and he's even kinder. i feel so lucky to have had the chance to meet good people. sharon, my friend who owns buffalo stamps worked so hard to put together an amazing event. thank you. (ps: she wants that microphone gadget thing!) and... it was a time to reconnect too. elisabeth was in town... she's so photogenic! here are some pics from the day!

new tim holtz!!!!!!

thankfully CHA-W is around the corner and i've preordered my favorite inks in the whole wide world: tim holtz distress inks. they are my go-to inks, love the quality, the color and their blendability. i am loving tumbled glass, it's my favorite shade of blue! but that's not all... he's designing dies for sizzix which seem so incredibly versatile. i've also pre-ordered some of those (from here) ... and will most likely add the new ones to my list. you can see them on tim's blog :)

family....

i thought i'd post a picture of my cousin lynn... she is an amazing person and beautiful mother! her kids are the ones i get to scrapbook!! no problem, because they love the camera! anyway... it's so nice to be home and now that her kids are getting older, we can spend a little more time together... kind of like making up for lost time ... thanks for everything! xoxo

uh-oh.... i'm in big trouble...

7gypsies is one of my all-time favorite companies. love their stuff, their french flair, vintage-y but very today. their designers are amazing. wish i was one!! click on the picture to see their new release for this month's CHA-W trade show... if you dare! ;)
