Halfway through.....

Its already the middle of January, how is that possible? i guess being busy means that time flies by even faster and the song Don't Blink gets me every time i hear it on the radio. I Must do a layout with that title and the lyrics sometime.

I signed up for the get a Load of this, class on Big Picture Scrapbooking and its been great having that pressure to upload something every day and i've succeeded at that, even though i've done multiple projects a couple times so i wouldn't miss a day, its been fun. I had hoped when i signed up to use it as incentive to get my Maui album done, but so far i have only done maybe half the projects as layouts for this album, but i have done some so thats bonus right? here are a few layouts from this month, some for the dt at Scrapbook Matters lss, and some just for fun to play!!!

I'm anxiously waiting for my January Life Preservers kit, my first month creating with one of Shellye's awesome kits for her dt, and i'm excited. We are planning a crop for Feb 9th weekend so be sure to join us for games and challenges and fun.

Oh yeah, Tim Holtz (and his ranger products) rocks, i was following a link suggested to his 12 tags of Christmas posts and WOWzers, i could hardly wait to play with my distress inks and alcohol inks and it was fun. i remember what i loved about stamping and ink in general, enjoy my samples. (which will be made into cards someday probably) I hunted down the tonic studios scratcher and poker and they are cool tools, love ebay.

I spent last weekend in red deer at a 4-H leaders conference which was awesome, and i played hookie for 2 hrs and enjoyed visiting with Rhea from SNS for a bit as she took me shopping to see the lss there, spend some money and see what was new, thanks Rhea, was great to see you again.
