Christmas Thank You and Red Dress Card

See the left side for my x-mas thank you and cards I made for my sisters for Heart Disease Awarness month.

Red Dress inside: full length of dress from Haute Couture SU hostess set- bit cut off in photo, sorry. Blogging skills are just so-so! :)

Ornaments posted

... The ones I made for Christmas are posted on the left of this message. It's about the only thing I did for x-mas craft-wise.

New kitty pictures of Pi and Bear, too.

Enjoy!

New stuff coming soon!

I'm so psyched! I did a series of ornaments using DCWV luxury stack, Tres Chic from SU! and an explosion card. Stay tuned for pics.

I am in the midst of gearing up for Christmas cards and other decorative items. Stay tuned for those, as well!

Where have I been????

Well, I've been busy working at my new job! I love it but I'm busy-zee! No time for crafting, but I have been decorating my cube with some cool cat pictures and things I've made. I will be updating the old blog soon. Stay tuned!

My Latest Creation....

Is this altered office box for my desk at my NEW JOB!!!

Oh my....

Well, it's been an eventful end of April. On April 24 my mom passed away. She had undiagnosed breast cancer that metastized to the bone. It's a sad time, no doubt, but because of my friends/fellow crafters and family, it has not been a totally horrendous time, either. Knowing my mom is at peace and out of pain has made all the difference. I only hope she didn't suffer too long. Her bones were hurting her and we finally convinced her to go to the hospital. She was admitted April 12 and gone April 24. It's sad. I'm still sad.

And I think of all the "stupid" time we won't be able to spend together anymore- watching QVC, bs-ing at the dining room table, ordering bad-for-you fast food (like takeout chicken and jalopeno poppers) and eating till our heart's content, silly stuff like that. That's what I'll miss most. The time together shooting the breeze, solving the world's problems over jalopeno poppers and cokes.

But I know she is with me now more than ever. And for that I am really, really grateful.

Ahhh, an update (finally!)

Hello All!

Finally, some new work. To the left you'll find my 2006 x-mas card (I told you I made one! LOL!) and a birthday card for my sorority sisters. Plus, a new pic of me, and a couple picks of the furbabies in my life.

More to come. Stay tuned!!!

I got a digi camera, a thumb drive and some cat stamps...

... on order (from Pink Cat Studio) www.pinkcatstudio.com "meowy-riffic" and I'm ready to rumble!

I will have new pics soon as I get them on the thumb drive and onto the computer with the high speed connection (as trying to upload from home with dialup is waaayyyy trying on my patience)!

I'll even have a more decent pic of me, where you can actually see my face for the shadows. Now aren't ya'll way excited now?

And if you're tired of looking at me, you will be able to look at my kitties, Pi and Bear. "MEOW"!

Stamp on!

Where does the time go?

.... into my Master's Thesis!!! LOL!!!

It's finally allllllll done, and I'm doing my best to catch up with things I've neglected while working on it-- including my crafts. Stay tuned to this same bat-channel and I'll be posting some fun new creations soon!

OMG! It's Christmastime already!

Jimminy Cricket, where does the time go? Just yesterday it was Thanksgiving, and now it's time for Christmas.

I've been working with my new kitties and MIA from the blog world.... I DO hav x-mas cards to share, and will have to post them eventually! Egads!

Hope everyone has a great holiday, whether it be Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzza, or Solstice (i have friends that celebrate all!!!!

Best to all of you in 2007!

Gift card holder/Alternative Christmas

Stay tuned as I will be posting pictures of a holiday gift card holder (a design re-worked and inspired by stamping friend Katie) project I've been working on. These card holders will be used for an Alternative Christmas fundraiser for my sororities philanthropy project, Project Turtlepods.

What is Alternative Christmas? That's where you purchase things like donations to charity and give them as gifts. The event will take place at a sister's church this Sunday, November 19th. I hope we raise a lot of money for the project.

If you would like more information about Project Turtlepods, please log onto www.ProjectTurtlepods.com

From there, you are able to make a donation to the project that is fully tax-deductable.

Stamp yourself silly,
Adriene

Ahhh, November

... well, with Halloween over, it's time to think about Thanksgiving and Christmas/Hanukkah/Holiday cards, cause' it's all just around the corner!

I've been struggling recently as I've had a migraine since last Monday (Oct. 30) and no medicine to alleviate the pain. Thankfully, I can re-order my script this Friday, but that doens't help me last Monday thru now... and maybe tomorrow and beyond, depending on how long this migraine lasts. Geeze... really slows the creativity!

However, I did get one holiday swap card done, and a cute little turtle card that I will post later. I want to design all my Christmas cards this year, so I better get crackin!

Halloween

... is such a fun day! Candy, dress up, all-around fun!! Above are some cards I made and some treat boxes, too. Plus, a fun pic of a co-worker! Happy Halloween!

10-10-20

So, last night I went to a local SU! demo's 10-10-20 class and had a totally awesome time! I made 10 fabulous cards that are ready to go at a moments notice! Plus, had a terrific time chatting away! If your demo offers such a class, I highly recommend it!

Pictures coming soon....

Well, as soon as I can figure out how to get them from my phone, to my computer, to the blog, that is... I have a couple of cards I'd like to share... check back soon!
