ATC's to trade at Heirloom Stamp Show in Grapevine

Coming soon to CHA and a store near you

I try and try to say that I will use what I have and not keep longing for and buying new supplies. BUT I can't. I love all of the new adorable things. Here are a few things that I am going to be waiting longingly for. Aren't these panda's from Prima fabulous? Yes, they are. I think I should plan a trip to China just so I can make a fabulous scrapbook of my trip featuring adorable Panda's. Maybe I could go to the Olympics. Ha - I just get to fantasize. Someday I will see more than my backyard though. I adore the gradation of color in these beautiful leaves (also from Prima). Oh they are just calling to be used in a fabulous project. I love their Hello, Spaceboy paper too.

I think these cupcake stamps from Maya Road will be a must have. Well I'm not sure where they are going to show up on the page but you will find them. I have faith in you. Jenni Bowlin has some fabulous smaller bingo cards and apothecary labels.

Well I should go to bed. I am horrible about staying up too late. Tommorow I will start working on some ATC's for the Heirloom Pro Rubber Stamp Show in Grapevine. Plus I am going to make a fabulous paper crown. I made one for my friend Krissy today but I didn't get a picture of it. She loved it though so that's what really matters. Rylee wants a pink polka dot crown. My work is never finished.

Oh how I've neglected you

Here are some bam pop cards, I was working on. Some are on the way to Stampers Sampler and some stayed home with me. I just love that monster so much. I think he's my favorite from Bam Pop.

I have been neglecting this blog and I am going to start sharing more.

So what's new in my artsy life. Well I am going to the Heirloom Productions Rubber Stamp show in Grapevine Saturday. I am very excited and made myself a list of stamps I want to get. Unfortunately I don't have a large budget so I will have to be discriminating. I want a mermaid. I had wanted brains and a zombie but I may wait on that. I want a cutie cupcake. I would also like a toadstool stamp and an octopus too. I don't know if anyone will have them though. I want so much. Who knows what I need that I haven't even seen yet. I want some of the sticky EP, packaging for my imaginary etsy store that I really am going to start soon. Oh and I need some of the EZ mount dividers, can't forget that.

I have so much but there is always something new and exciting that I think I can't live without. I am going to make myself a beautiful paper crown to wear and hopefully get my etsy store going and include some kits there. I am hoping to meet some of my artsy craftsy flickr friends while I am there.

I am also considering going to a retreat called the Paper Cowgirl, an altered art retreat in Waxahatchie. Seadreamstudio is one of the artists on flickr whose work I adore and she is going to be teaching there. It will be fun. I hope I can make it happen.

What else? Ah, nothing else. I am tired but I will be back. If you stumble on this, please comment. It makes me feel loved and special.
