Leaving comments

Hello all. I am here to make a really quick post since I'm in school right now and shouldn't even be doing this to begin with. I have been noticing a LOT of spam comments lately so I decided that I needed to activate word verification. I know it sucks and I'm sorry but I don't really enjoy getting comments about erectile dysfunction. Ugh. So now when you go to leave a comment you will be greeted by that ugly little box with those jumpled little letters. Again I'm sorry. And I'm apologizing so much because I HATE WORD VERIFICATION! I hate having to type those dumb letters in when I leave a comment on someone elses blog and now I must surrender to the box. All because of those damn spammers!! AHHHHHH!! Anyway, that's that. See ya.

WOYWW

Sorry for the horrid picture. I took it with my phone this time. Oh what a pain it is to upload from my digital camera. Anyway, here it is. Not very crafty on my part. Breana has been enjoying my markers and drawing til her heart's content. She was actually kind enough to scoot outta the way so I could take this pic. I wish I had more craftiness to show of my own but hers makes me just as happy.


OH!! Remember I said I was going to make a haul video? Well I did, and here it is:

New in Etsy

Hi there all. Just wanted to post up some info about my latest item for sale in my Etsy Shoppe. It's a wish box (or a trinket box....whatever you'd like to call it) and I absolutely adore it! So I get to sit and stare at it until it sells. If it ever sells. I sure am having a hard time selling via Etsy. I sell more outside of Etsy than anywhere else. Anyone got some tips or ideas? Maybe something I should do to up the sales?? Anyway, here is the box. I'm only going to post up the frontal picture because Blogger is quite slow when it comes to uploading multiple pics. So if you want to see all the other angles of the box, you can go here to my shoppe and there more pics there.



So there it is. Hope you enjoy :)

Oh, and I might (I say might because I have an awful time accomplishing these kinds of things) post a haul video. I got some yummy stuff I want to share with you all.

Okay I lied...

Seems that I happened to tell you that I would do a WOYWW for yesterday but it seems that I didn't fulfill my duties and do so. I'm sorry!!!! Wahhhh!!! I know, makes me cry too. But I planned on doing it. I just didn't actually get around to it. Or I put more things in the way of it. Or something else...but either way I know I had good intentions so don't kill me please!! And because I feel soooo bad.....(or maybe because I just feel like it??) I'm gonna do a small giveaway. Just leave me a comment here on the blog and I'll pick a winner Saturday morning (I say morning but it could be afternoon for all I know....hey..I'm lazy on the weekends man...gimme a break!). Sound good? Man...just for your sake, I should feel guilty ALL the time! Haa!!



oh, and here is a pretty image just for you.  Click image for full size.

A Few New

Hello everyone. I've been gone for a bit but I'm back. I didn't do last week's WOYWW becuase we were busy busy that day but this week for sure.

Okay...side-tracked...derrrr, back to the main reason for this post..

MARCH!

March is a month full of chaos for me. I say me because nobody else really does anything around here so I can take all the credit and bitch as much as I want about it too! So what's March all about? Well, the 2nd is the anniversary of my Grandmother's passing and the 5th is the anniversary of her funeral day. The 15th is my mother in law's birthday so I have to prepare something for her. The 28th is Breana's birthday so I have to plan her party (which by the way, has changed from unicorns to Wizards of Waverly Place...but it can only be WWP if Justin is on the party favors because of course you know, he is her boyfriend after all!) and then the 29th is my sister in law's birthday. Not to mention that I have to plan for Easter and get baskets and whatnot ready. This is a month full of hair pulling. Well.....more hair pulling than the other months but STILL! Ugh...so as to why I'm here telling you all this??...I've made some bday cards for my MIL and SIL. We saw Alice in Wonderland in 3-D on Saturday with the kids and it was wonderful!! I'm definitely getting this one on DVD. Since I was in the Alice-y mood I decided to make their cards with an Alice theme. Tell me what you think.

Here's a quick supply list:
Distress Ink- Spun Sugar, Victorian Velvet, Worn Lipstick, Bundled Sage, and Tumbled Glass
Stamps- Alice Collection from AlphaStamps, and the checkerboard stamp by Cherry Pie Art Stamps
Rhinestones were colored with Copic Markers


Okay, on to the next card. This one is my sister in law's card.
 

Supply list:
Distress Ink- Frayed Burlap, Wild Honey, and Black Soot
Stamps- Hero Arts dot background stamp, Alice Collection from AlphaStamps
Paper- Bo Bunny Sweet Nothings
Rhinestones colored with Copic Markers

and here are the Copic colors I used.



Don't mind my pajama pants and the awful glare :p
I also made...no,  decorated envelopes for them (mind you I will NEVER make an envelope again and if you wanna know why you can search to find my post about it) but they aren't anything special (or worth me getting up to snap a pic considering that I'm being lazy) so I'm not gonna post them. Maybe I'll remember next time.



So that seems to be it. Nothing else going on other than the usual cleaning and schtuff. Having a brand new washer and dryer sure does make things easier. OH!! And for those of you who have decided against buying a Crop A Dile Big Bite II because of price attached to it, then head on down to WalMart and see if they have them on sale there! I picked one up at ours today for $10!! They we're $35 and I guess they didn't sell well so there went the price. And good thing too because I kept eyeing them and forcing myself not to buy one until now. Glad I waited. Anyway, have a good evening all of you and hope to hear from ya.

Toodles.
