Just a few days away...woohoo! I just can't wait!

Hey friends Long time no blog I know,but here I am.  I can't believe that CHA is here already! I am so excited to get on over to LA and see the fun new goodies that CHA has to share.  I also am looking forward to connecting with online crafty friends that I only see during this time of year!

So many good things have been going on lately.  Tallyscrapper is rolling full steam ahead and I love that! So much fun! They have a Design Star coming up. I just might bite!  And I also have been having a lot of fun at Dixie pieces with some challenges! Here are a few of the  Layouts that I have done with some of the sketches that they have posted this month :0)





I have also decided to give it a whirl and try out for Sassafras' DT.  Why not?  I never thought I would make it on Kiki Art's DT and She surprised me.  Sassafras Lass is one of my Ultimate Faves!  They are so wild and FUN!  However, I just don't want to reveal my submissions as of yet. Bad luck?  Superstitious?  I don't know.  Maybe after Feb. 1st. The deadline is the deadline, then, what is done is done!  Wish me luck!  BY THE WAY...Have you seen their new lines?  Hello?  Yummy!! Go see for yourself!  http://sassafras.typepad.com/sassafras/ I can't wait to touch them and see them in person.  They will probably have to remove me from their booth for loitering or touching the paper for just 'too' long ( I'm tactile that way).

Anyway life has been great. I can't complain . My father just had his 70th birthday. And.. he is healthier than ever. I love that stubborn Italian man! Here he is in front of his birhtday cake. He always brags that he will live till 100. So I took a pic of his birthday cake..take a look...





So what do you think?  He believes it and I think that I do too!  Well for now I am off to bed!  Thanks for coming to visit me!
