Look What I Got

Here's a look at just a few of the fabrics that I got on sale at Joann's. I think I'm going to make some blankets out of them.

Going in the Gutter Again

It has been a really long time since I did the Gutter Girlz challenge. Hell, it's been a long time since I've scrapped. But I'm back in the game and today brought up an issue I've been able to avoid for a couple of months. What better way to deal with it than to scrap it. And the only way it to do that is with a Gutter Girlz prompt. These girls are awesome and really help me get it all out...

THE PROMPT:
I'm not ur bitch, BITCH
THE SONG:
U and Ur HAND by Pink
PRODUCT/TECHNIQUE:
Lipstick




I changed the prompt a little from "I'm not ur bitch" to "ur a bitch". I went with the lipstick kiss on my journaling spot and wrote in kiss my ass. I added a chipboard skully with some rhinestone eyes and wrote in a few choice words there, too. I used alot of bubblegum pink to symbolize the total fakeness of what I thought was a real friendship. It's really hard to get past someone not wanting to be your friend anymore when they have all of a sudden become buddies with your best friend/cousin. How am I supposed to move on and get over it when it is constantly in my face? Oh and I did I mention that she's a fucking drunk? Yeah the kind that has to go to rehab- twice since she started all this bullshit with me. Apparently she's nice to me, then starts drinking, goes off on me, and then goes to rehab. I wish she'd either stay sober and nice, or just stay locked in rehab permanently. So anyway here's what I did with it...

Birthday Presents

So this year I thought I would make my sister and my mom a 12 x 12 layout for their birthdays. My sister came down for a visit last summer and I just love this picture of the two of us. Her birthday is in August, and I haven't mailed it to her yet. So maybe this will be her Christmas present this year. I should just go ahead and mail it to her since she is leaving for Afghanistan soon.


My mom's birthday was last weekend, and we went to the Zonta craft festival in Pascagoula. It was fun and HOT! Good Lord where is the fall weather?!?!

The pics are from last year when we went to a pumpkin patch and small festival. Mom had a good time picking out funky pumpkins. She seemed to like it, but the true test is if she'll actually hang it up in her house! lol




Please don't mind the mess behind the frames (which I got at Hobby Lobby for 50% off) . The pink fabric on the table will one day be some PJ's. Thanks for looking!

New Scrappy Layouts

My plan was to take pictures of the few layouts I have done recently, and then I started to take the pictures and I realized that I have been waaaaay busier than I thought! And I realized that I have been neglecting my daughter's book. So I need to work on some more on her stuff. Please forgive the bad photos...I was using morning light and it put a tint on the layouts. The colors are much better IRL. Yeah and I was lazy and didn't crop the pics like I normally would...

This is me and a couple of girlfriends...we went to a Japanese restaurant where I tried and hated sushi.
