He knows how to woo a girl




He's so cute right???!
Sometimes he even has these John Mayer-esque looks as he tries to say the words. So funny...
I think he's trying to speak english, but I'm not sure at some parts...
But he's got most of the right notes on that ukulele!


I should really start scrapbooking and making more cards. I need something new and fresh! Anyone have any themes or occasions I should make cards for?


1. My Best Friend (Scrapbook LO), 2. Cuz i love you more than i could ever promise..., 3. Oh! the places you'll go...., 4. Summer Love, Elles Studio GD July




That last photo is my new favorite scrapbook artist, Tara Anderson. She has the most beautiful embellishments and neat layout ideas.  I'd ask her to make me a scrapbook anyday.

Apparently "hello naomi" does. And Soojin. I believe Soojin would do something like this.

California

I know I haven't been faithful to this blog. But I have been away this past week on a California eating excursion. I'm not sure how else to describe it except that I ate my way through California. Thank you to Mark and Hannah for being wonderful hosts and showing us how yummy Cali really is.

In and Out, Late night 2nd and 3rd dinners, Chick-fil-A, all you can eat sushi, all you can eat korean bbq meat, yogurtland, red mango, Las Vegas Buffets (Bellagio, Rio), McRibs and even veggie burgers!

This is the real kicker. We were only there for 7 and 1/2 days. I still feel stuffed!

I would love to post pictures, but my camera broke halfway through the trip, so I'll have to rely on a friend from the trip to post his pictures.

Until then...

The Joy of Friends



I am so thankful for my friends.
I wish I had a picture with all of them, but here's only a few..

First, my hardworking factory workers. Thanks for coming out and making many, many cards. Even though you left us June, you still came back strong. Tiff, I know you hate cards now, but thank you so much for enduring hours with me. And even for both your own creations! I'm selling those by the way!


Susan, you are seriously a great worker! But more importantly a great friend. Thanks for your suggestions, help in mass-producing and the beaaauttttiful pictures below. Angela, thanks for your moral support. I know if you could, you'd make a 100 by yourself for me. :)



This is Soojin. Just kidding. But really, just imagine her face there: it's pretty much Soojin. I don't have a picture of you. But thank you for your hospitality and your Stampin' Up supplies. I'd say at least 50% of the cards were made with your supplies. I'm putting in an order. Don't worry.

Thank you ladies! Thanks Stephen for listening to all this card talk and wanting to help, even if I didn't let you. :)


Now, onto the serious stuff. Here's some cards that lovely Susan took for me today. Beautiful.






Now on to Saturday's sale...
Ooh! More info about that....
It's a family who wants to adopt a child from Russia. They are raising money through this event by having people sell their "craft" or if they work for a company and would like to sell products (Stampin' Up, Tupperware) they are invited as well.

This Saturday 12/5 from 10 AM to 3 PM at Indigo Hotel in Palatine, IL.
See you there!
