  • I had such a good week with Beachwood visiting. Here’s some shots:

    going to get some sun baby!

    Happy birthday mom, love you!!

    It was a chocolate cake, yuck, so I had to get my sugar fix with the yummy buttermilk frosting.

    Beachwood gets in on the party action.

    Sometimes I go a little nuts when pack big orders. HE he he.

    Katie, remember your own supplies next time, geez. ๐Ÿ™‚


    Two scrapping katies. The scrapyard rocked!


    My favorite thing I made last night, a big ol’ clipboard, yeah!

  • Okay, you have to get the BHG Inspirations book, because that’s what I used for this layout. I don’t know why I can’t find a link to this book but I got it at Border’s so go check it out! I actually did this layout last night. Today Beachwood and I went to go get gorgeous (read: painful waxing by a total novice) and then headed to Salem. We laid out by the pool all day, but I put lots of sunscreen on so I am tanning slow. Then we went out to one of my favorite Mexican places for my mom’s birthday and got cake and ice cream. I came home to a bunch of orders. Simple Scrapbooks featured the Ribbon Jar in their newsletter, but I didn’t sign up in time, so I haven’t seen it. Hopefully they’ll forward it to me tomorrow. So anyway it was a pretty good day, and I’ll post more pics tomorrow!

    {edited to add, oops, forgot to say which inspiration it was: Page 10, Alison Beachem, number one… and did I already say you have to get this book!!! I’m only on the first inspiration, ahhhh love it!}

  • Okay I have no idea who Dan is but he found my tainted love Levi’s wide leg commercial!!!  He totally rocks. This is the world’s coolest commercial (in my humble opinion). It came out years ago, and I only saw it a couple of times, but I thought it was just so clever. Check it out:

    from Dan:

    I was looking for the "Tainted Love" Levi’s commercial myself, and I finally found it online. The site link is listed first, and the direct link is listed second.
    It’s a French site (I think), and they did stick a advertisement across the beginning, but the rest looks fine.

    Enjoy!

    Dan you made my day!
