Wow.

Time flies. I didn't even post for the entire month of February, but I made a ton of cards and have been insanely busy with my new classes. Everything's going alright, though. A couple things:

You can follow me on twitter now... over to the right-hand side of my blog main page or using this link. Cute.

Here are just a couple of the cards I did last month (I think I made about 20, but I can't really remember- no time to edit all the pictures!):

Birthday card for my roommate next year, Alex:
Supplies: pp- DCWV, cs- Bazzill, Letter Stickers- Making Memories, Rubon- Hambly, other- silver ink and pink eyelets

One of my favorite Valentine's day cards:
supplies: cs- The Paper Studio (kraft) and Archiver's (red), pp- Sassafrass Lass, thread- DMC, Chipboard letters- Pressed Petals, other- Puffy Paint

Valentine's day was like this:

Pretty shades of pink and red in roses and my dress. {The guy wasn't bad either. ;-) Thanks, Greg, for making my Valentine's Day amazing!}

That reminds me, I really need to go make a card for him in the next few minutes. Yay for three months of "official"-ness and happiness.

Two more things really quickly--- I get to see two very special people next weekend, and I couldn't be more thrilled:

1.
The man who always has been and always will be my best friend. Jeb is coming to visit me from Madison.... finally! I'm so excited! Together (along with my boyfriend, his twin, and my friends Sara and Patrice), we are going to see person:

2. Oh. em. gee. It's BJ Novak: a.k.a. Ryan from The Office, a.k.a. one of the writers of The Office, a.k.a. one of the executive producers of The Office. He's coming here to our student union to do standup and but be his awesome self. I get to see him! OMG. This weekend is going to be awwwwesome.

Alright, I'll stop geeking out now and get to what really needs to be done: a card, cleaning, and endless mountains of homework. I hope to be back soon.

Love.

Life is changing...

Have you ever had that feeling that life is completely changing? There's nothing you can do about it- just sit back and watch it change before your eyes. You are never the same. Life is never the same. That's how I feel right now.

And I have to say, it's not necessarily a bad feeling.

I have a couple things to share with you today, so prepare yourselves!

1. Pamela is giving away a Scarlet Lime August project kit. Her mini album that she did with it is awesome! Good luck :). Here's a link to her blog.

2. Altered letters for my roommate, Gretchen, and myself:

Supplies: paper mache letters- Hobby Lobby, embossing powder and ink- Ranger, stamps- Autumn Leaves and Scrappy Cat, rub-ons- The Paper Studio, ribbon- Offray, Adornments by EK Success, unknown, thread- DMC, paint and button-unknown

3. COCOA challenge for this week. We had to use a lot of scraps. I really like how this layout turned out (plus, who knew I could write like that? I'm pretty amused by that.):

Supplies: pp- KI Memories (blue and grey stripe), My Mind's Eye (blue floral) and Basic Grey (everything else), cs- Bazzill, chipboard- Basic Grey and Heidi Swapp, white pen- Sakura, grey pen- ZIG, white ink- Tsukineko, green button bows- from this store - this item

4. Quick layout I whipped up for color inspiration challenge #19: (this is also a scraplift of Cheryl Overton from the CKMB- her layout was so cute that I had to replicate it!)

Supplies: pp- KI Memories, cs- American Crafts (grey), Bazzill Basics (blue) and The Paper Studio (white), ink- StazOn by Tsukineko, letter stickers- Scrapworks (black) and The Paper Studio (white), chipboard brackets- Basic Grey

Okay, enough excitement for today. I have this morning off of work in order to start packing and so far I have not done any... Oops. I'll start after lunch ;). I can't believe I leave on Tuesday (that means Jamba juice in 4 days! :) )and move in on Wednesday. Good thing I start classes the day after Labor Day- that seems like enough time to adjust. I'll be back!

Love.
