<span style="font-size: x-large;">Can you believe it??? No, me neither. It's been </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">F-O-R-E-V-E-R since I posted something in this thing. I promised the few of you that may check from time to time to see if I would keep my word...YES. I did. Finally. </span><span style="font-size: x-large;">Procrastinator Extraordinaire.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br />So, what a whirlwind year, to say the least. My baby boy found someone to share his love with. A beautiful, inside and out, young lady from the other side of the world. So yep....there was a wedding one whole month ago already! And, "Yep"...we went to South Africa for it!!! What an experience of a life time. Wouldn't have missed this for anything. They are a perfect match. Emmi completes him. And he adores her! I have a Daughter-in-law!!!<br /><br />So I was thrilled they asked me to make their wedding invites, but asked if they would give me a direction, since so many ideas are out there to be tried. They sure did. This is the pic they sent me.</span></center>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">At first I thought...piece of cake with my machines (errr...I'm a hoarder...I'm up to six now...it's a sickness my husband says. I'm okay with that.) And of course, with my <a href="https://www.iportis.com/buynow.php?pid=5g7b5s8w3myn3v0p9qyl&affid=4028&cc=MTC905&noshop=1" target="_blank">Make The Cut</a> program, anything is possible. It didn't have to be an exact copy, but they loved the idea of the cut-a-away corner. Let me tell you....there were many tears. I had to honestly look at my abilities as well as my time frame to get it all done. 100 plus cards and matching sleeves. I came very close to telling them we would order the cards and pay for them ourselves. But I stuck with it. Had a great big confidence boost with the help of the wonderful people from the weekly webinar through <a href="https://www.iportis.com/buynow.php?pid=5g7b5s8w3myn3v0p9qyl&affid=4028&cc=MTC905&noshop=1" target="_blank">MTC</a>...thanks Bryan! It was a big help! And so with many, many nights with only 4 hours of sleep, lots and lots of designing and reworking my pattern, lots and lots of paper snibbles to be picked up off the floor, and many, many glue drops to each one of those corner pieces...this is what I ended up with.</span></center>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">I think it turned out pretty well. Ü</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">So I included a square card with the reception info on it, as well as a sheet of fancy-shmancy tissue paper inside each card, then inserted it into the sleeve, put it all into a linen envelope to mail. That's it. Mission Accomplished. LOL<br /><br />Oh...and then there was the engagement party I threw before we left for South Africa. I wanted to have a photo booth, but really didn't have the $700+ for the 4 hour rental. So I searched for an idea and decided to go with a Polaroid picture frame. Threw in some Disney inspired embellishments and props from a digi kit I bought, print and cut and wahlah. </span></div>

I used my new Epson 1100 to print these very cool graphic files I purchased from Moonbeam1212's <a href="http://www.jaguarwoman.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=10&products_id=969">Rosy Glow</a> and <a href="http://www.jaguarwoman.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=10&products_id=896">Petal Wings</a> at <a href="http://jaguarwoman.com/">Jaguarwoman.com</a>. What fabulous eye candy is found at that site! You've gotta go and see! I did print and cut roses and butterflies on each page and then pop dotted them for embellishments. For the front and back covers, I used acrylic sheets and engraved a monogram onto the front using my awesome KNK Maxx. It did a spectacular job. I found the "filler" lines for the inside of the monogram in the <a href="https://www.iportis.com/orderform.php?pid=5g7b5s8w3myn3v0p9qyl&affid=4028&cc=MTC905">Make the Cut</a> gallery. There is a small little glitch that didn't engrave. I left it as it was, but if I do this again...which I'm sure I will since its so cool and a breeze with my handy dandy Maxxer...I will design my own filler lines because as I've seen since, it is pretty easy to make. Bound it with my Cinch...so easy, it cut like butter, even the plexiglass. Wah-Lah. Decided to forgo the ribbon on the binding wire. The bride isn't for all the frilly girlie stuff. I left it so that she can put her own pics in it too.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large; text-align: -webkit-auto;"> The simpler the better.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Ü</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;

margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">...Sure! Ha! Here we go again. I knew about the wedding well before hand. So the planning started as to what I wanted to make...in my head. The night before...yep...I start designing it in my Make the Cut software. The DAY of the wedding, 2 hours before the wedding, I get ready to cut it out using my awesome KNK Maxx. Well, so I started to, but then I decided to change the design a little. Now we are down to 45 minutes before the wedding. My hubby has to get there early because he's an usher, and comes in the room and asks if he should go to the store and pick up a card. Ha! FUNNY GUY!!! No. Now my plan is, cut it all out, get changed quick, go to the ceremony, come home right after, put it together, stuff some cash in it and put it in an envelope, and go. Whew. So run home I did and put it together before the reception. Then I came downstairs to show my dearest hubby my new creation and waved it in front of him and exclaimed..."there...I saved you $2.50"!!! hehehe. He didn't laugh.

Ü</span></div><div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">In May, I told my hubby that when my Cricut "dies"...which it has to get used more often than it does for that to happen...and then when my "back-up" Expression dies following the first...that I had found my next machine. The 15" KNK Maxx. And I knew who I wanted to buy it from--Sandy McCauley the most dedicated, generous, knowledgeable rep ever! So to my surprise he says "If it will do everything you want it to do...then get it! Happy Anniversary"!!! How could I argue with that? He wanted to get something really nice for our 30th Anniversary. I did drag my feet just a teenie bit, but decided I better go with it before he changes his mind. ;) So in June, I joined the proud group of people that now owns a beautiful and powerful cutting machine.</span></div><div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Now, I did notice that there was a KNK retreat lead by that awesome dealer of mine in Denver CO...but it was on the very weekend of our 30th anniversary. So my mind went to scheming on how I could convince my dear man that we were taking a small vacation to Denver...and "Oh yeah, I'll be in class all weekend". Yep...so I dropped it and didn't even mention it. There were going to be other retreats. </span></div><div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Well....Sunday August 7th changed all that. An email from Sandy stated that there was good news and bad news regarding the retreat in Denver. Good News: There were just a few more spots open for the retreat for anyone interested and Chad from Accugraphics was going to be there all weekend and he was bringing with him the new KNK cutting machine, the Zing. Bad News: This was going to be Sandy's LAST retreat of it's kind!!! NO!!! I need to go yet!! So without delay, I informed my best bud of a hubby about what the class is all about, gave him my reasons of why I needed to go...to insure our investment in this excellent machine was going to benefit us in the long run. I told him I knew it can cut more than paper, and I <i>could </i>learn it by watching those great videos Sandy made, and lots of investigating on the internet. But this retreat was going to be the boost of information I need to jump start me. To have both of the guru's of Klic-N-Kut in one room, teaching all weekend. I have to go!! So after putting the cost on paper, and telling dh that I think it would be best that I should go alone because I don't want to miss one minute of class...he said "If this is something you really want to do and can make it happen, then make it happen. Happy Anniversary"!!! WHAT??!! The machine was my anniversary gift, and now this? There is no way I could get him anything close to that as a gift....maybe he considered my being away was his gift...LOL!! Anyhow, needless to say, everything fell into place within 24 hours. </span></div><div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">So Friday Sept 2nd I boarded the plane and flew by myself for the first time. Well, just getting to the airport was a feat in itself. The very same time as I set out to leave for my 90 minute commute to Milwaukee, the weather decided to kick in with 70-80 mile an hour wind gusts. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE! Semi's were swerving in the wind. Rain was coming down hard, cars were going slow...I had to get to the airport! I wondered if I was going to see my first tornado. But not like this!! I wanted to be in a safe place to see my first tornado...not on a highway! So trying to use a sound mind, and as I was listening to the radio station keeping me updated on the storm. There were no tornado warnings, it was a straight wind front going through really fast. Watching for the best time to pass semi's was my mission. I waited until there was some sort of wind break, line of trees or hillside, and then I would take my shot and hammered pass those large moving obstacles. I did that for about 40 minutes, and then there was clear sailing. I did hear about 10 minutes after I got out of my county that a semi trailer did flip over on the highway. Thank goodness they were behind me.</span></div><div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Okay...fast forward to the retreat. I got to the meet and greet a little late, but I was there! Ü What a great time! What a room full of talent!!!! Words can't express the fun we had. The learning...my head did explode by 7:30 pm Saturday night. I would do it again though! I got a wonderful welcome from Sandy...it was like we had known each other for a long time. Oh and then there was Lynn...the master of organization and skills of all types of media!! Such a wonderful lady. She even arranged for Linda, who is equally fabulous, sweet and generous, to stop at the Container Store and pick me up a couple of plastic containers for my blades and blade holders and surprise me with them on Sunday. Judy and Cherrie and all their hard work in coordinating the retreat with Sandy. Millie, Ouiszee, and Helen, oh my...you ladies are an inspiration! Thanks to Andrea, my table partner. She put up with my fidgeting as my daughter calls it. I hope she loves MTC!! Big thanks to Linda and Kim who kept checking on me to see if there was something I wanted to cut. I hated that I couldn't bring my machine and had to rely on everyone else's. I tried to get Chad to let me keep the Zing...didn't work. He didn't even let me carry it into the airport after we were dropped off by the hotel shuttle. Guess he didn't like the look in my eyes! LOL Oh and a BIG THANK YOU to Sandy, Chad and Elina....they decided to leave the hotel and get to the airport really early and we got to share the shuttle ride together. I got to pick their brain just a tiny bit more! SCORE!</span></div><div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">So here are a few pics I took off my cell...I'm really terrible at taking pictures with that thing.</span></div><div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />

It's so darn CUTE! I made it for my 7 year old great-niece Kamiko. She had a dance recital last weekend and I missed it. So I thought about this new kit I bought from SVGCUTS.com and decided to make it and fill it with goodies. I think she'll like it. Hopefully her 20 month old brother doesn't love it to pieces...literally! Here's the link for the kit:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><a href="http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=43&products_id=264"><b>PEONY COTTAGE SVG KIT</b></a></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It was super easy to make using my <a href="https://www.iportis.com/orderform.php?pid=5g7b5s8w3myn3v0p9qyl&affid=4028&cc=MTC327"><b>MTC software</b></a>. This tutorial is so well done! I love it. I first printed out the directions, it has all the sizes and paper type (solid or patterned) printed under the pic of each piece. I just imported each piece onto my <a href="https://www.iportis.com/orderform.php?pid=5g7b5s8w3myn3v0p9qyl&affid=4028&cc=MTC327"><b>Make the Cut!</b></a> mat, and cut everything out on my cutter. Inked edges and then followed Mary's video for assembly on their website. Super, SUPER Easy! (did I say that already??) I want to make myself one...for what, I have no idea. But it's so darn CUTE...I think I said that already too! LOL You can easily customize your design for each season, just by changing your paper choices. This file is so ingenious! Great Job Mary Rudakas!! There's a few more fun files that I purchased and will have to make asap. Maybe I'll wait to make them until I get that new cutting machine. Which one you say??? One? hahahaha....time will tell, and then I will shout it out here and on the MTC forum of course!

Resize your image and texture to your desired size on the MTC! virtual mat. When all of your images are imported, resized and textured, send each page to your printer. Place your printed cardstock onto your cutting mat and load into your machine. Before cutting out your images, go back to your virtual mat in MTC! and select the image you will be cutting out. To simplify your cut, press shift/ctrl/Z keys on your computer. You will get a pop up box (Auto Simplified Node Count) that will tell you how many nodes or spots the blade will go to around your image/path. Hit OK or the enter key and repeat this process until no further simplification can be done. This process will help to make your machine cut around your image more quickly. From the drop down tab under "Cut Project With..." select your cutting machine. Depending on the thickness of your cardstock or chipboard, you may want to select from the drop down box how many passes you want to cut your design, as well as how fast you would like it to cut. Press "Start!" to cut. Complete this process for each page of your album. Once everything is cut out, ink edges, assemble and embellish as desired.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">So here is my finished album for Wendy...you can double clink on pic to get a closer look!</span><br />

For those </span><span style="color: black;">of you that don't know me...I procrastinate about procrastinating. But even I surprised myself on this one! LOL I went to the salon on my day off and in 4 hours got it mostly done. The following day, I put in two more trees, and while my client was in the pedi spa, I "found" the snowman sitting in the back yard waiting to be seen, so I picked up my paint brush and got him in there. I really wanted to redo the sky because it isn't how I wanted it to be, but DH said it was done. hahaha....it looks like Lake Michigan. I used acrylic paints for all but the sky. The girls at work thought I should use window paint daubers...ummmm...no. You can't layer with that stuff to make it look realistic. They thought that we...I...could just wash off the window and paint something else for next season....ummmm...again...no. I will fix the sky next winter, and I will find another window downstairs and paint something else on it to use in the display. So help me if I see someone with a razor blade heading for that painting! ;) Here's a few pics I took of it on my iPod...just incase I can't save it from the co-worker that doesn't understand how attached I am to my artwork.</span> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWibv0lSmzUPflNd4WxB6AmeRXc1ho3e4nkOTffCCXiUBMg2EOsRunolccK0Q9pRK0ZETEYmYWC96Fo8jospO8ZSk5_0POnn8bsbNDh-lq0sf3_L18gDbsQekNHGgzpr6dLvA2MWKphUY/s1600/IMG_0041.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWibv0lSmzUPflNd4WxB6AmeRXc1ho3e4nkOTffCCXiUBMg2EOsRunolccK0Q9pRK0ZETEYmYWC96Fo8jospO8ZSk5_0POnn8bsbNDh-lq0sf3_L18gDbsQekNHGgzpr6dLvA2MWKphUY/s640/IMG_0041.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9m-d_qMisJz-hsiskSJLZ_A69kvqDgyxm-NVns0XKRSOWKanMbyN8oxkPzzxG_dixKdqVMnPXWFjnIHX-Kdjy3Aqs5bkXucICiMPe-sEb8kj7dysuPPjuU2_m7mngcdAXMK3904uPyEI/s1600/IMG_0042.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9m-d_qMisJz-hsiskSJLZ_A69kvqDgyxm-NVns0XKRSOWKanMbyN8oxkPzzxG_dixKdqVMnPXWFjnIHX-Kdjy3Aqs5bkXucICiMPe-sEb8kj7dysuPPjuU2_m7mngcdAXMK3904uPyEI/s640/IMG_0042.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://s279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/kwilt/?action=view&current=blogsiggy3.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="blogsiggy3" border="0" src="http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/kwilt/blogsiggy3.png" /></a></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

Of course I had in mind that I wanted to make a scrap book for Debbie...just didn't know exactly WHEN I was going to actually start it...lol...doesn't that sound just like me???!!! Well, after a few attempts in DS and then decided I love MTC far more, I went ahead and started my project. Worked on setting up the pages for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, only to forget to save the darn thing and closed out of the program, Yeah, dumb me. But all worked out in the end, because on further meditating on the idea, I went about it way too difficult. That's what I get for not pounding out projects on a more frequent basis. Well with a few very late nights, I got 'er done just the way I had imagined...with a bit of extra ideas that came to me because I had actually gave it more time and thought. I was kind of worried about Deb's reaction towards it. She's not a scrapper, and is a very thrifty and practical person. When we were discussing my addiction to this hobby, she was kind of callused with her comments. Before I gave it to her, I at first doubted if she would appreciate the time and effort I put into the book. But she was THRILLED with it!!! Yeaaaa...as was her hubby! :) I had left one mat empty because I could not find a pic with all four of us together, but she and Aaron ran to find their photo albumns to put a pic in the spot and we completed it together. I only wished that I would have gotten a final picture of that page. But any how...this is the book. I like how it turned out and have plans to make other books as gifts also...but ahead of time...right. hahahahha....</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none;

I just LOVE Make The Cut! It is so easy to convert images into layers for scrapbook pages and cards. Isn't this image sooooo darn CUTE!!!! The eyes were too small to cut out, so I'll have to draw or stamp them on.

I found it at Hobby Lobby, and it had the Disney Princesses on it. Yes...I kept it like that and it was a topic of conversation for a while. :) Well...I decided it was time to "mature" the look...just a wee bit...Won't my clients be shocked!! I took some of my pretty paper from the My Minds Eye~Simply Delightful paper stack, a bit of Modge Podge and this is what I came up with. I am still undecided if I like the bling I put on it...some random and a few aligned...just don't know if it's working. I keep moving the bling around, but am afraid one of these times I'll tear the paper when I do it. Why do I stress over things like this???!!! {I'll probably change it another time or two yet...sigh} So here it is...leave me your thoughts on what I should do. Thanks a bunch! This reminds me that I'll have to take pics of my tin I altered when I first started scrappin'. I put my Cuttlebug folders in it.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_l2LgBesOboaj_xK-PRzvNwlPiYAzSWwrRwvJ1Hw5MF6129wnlPeekve37y0uvHU_iLSItt2B-CdzOepNZUlp-7bE1NK5zaLiGyquy_2ABTcsgiKPEBQ1BMbe2noDCrZ4ymmh30WLwVA/s1600/brush+box+ateration+001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" gu="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_l2LgBesOboaj_xK-PRzvNwlPiYAzSWwrRwvJ1Hw5MF6129wnlPeekve37y0uvHU_iLSItt2B-CdzOepNZUlp-7bE1NK5zaLiGyquy_2ABTcsgiKPEBQ1BMbe2noDCrZ4ymmh30WLwVA/s320/brush+box+ateration+001.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDlSOCqJEyGN5oWdSbRs7nuDmT-13M9hhnuAJdA0PBZsyejbwZ8P1dXnZ1KGreDC9EUZ1ft-j7rJT_KaeJjJQCxN-ITYq3Aj6L_4mTsTXrEXl3s9dCW_GoQqd-Nxq_uBQ0ux8rqwokMm8/s1600/brush+box+ateration+011.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" gu="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDlSOCqJEyGN5oWdSbRs7nuDmT-13M9hhnuAJdA0PBZsyejbwZ8P1dXnZ1KGreDC9EUZ1ft-j7rJT_KaeJjJQCxN-ITYq3Aj6L_4mTsTXrEXl3s9dCW_GoQqd-Nxq_uBQ0ux8rqwokMm8/s320/brush+box+ateration+011.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzhXA-fqRaRWXSBsK0myzy3bg9V_A4fu3SXTd_1mrvoNxgOnchKWgy1ZDJ242PZzksd4AJqUYQpQTSDH1W4CQqsto5OSFIxNykQnRoGFU7gS7dLH-kj5AY0E_zJlLdg4z_0p_NN7LiPa0/s1600/brush+box+ateration+005.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="cssfloat: left; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" gu="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzhXA-fqRaRWXSBsK0myzy3bg9V_A4fu3SXTd_1mrvoNxgOnchKWgy1ZDJ242PZzksd4AJqUYQpQTSDH1W4CQqsto5OSFIxNykQnRoGFU7gS7dLH-kj5AY0E_zJlLdg4z_0p_NN7LiPa0/s320/brush+box+ateration+005.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhoLyRj7sMgTydKMHj5BLEUikNy-c8ueW_cVIXJK1nABt1he44zMxQRaW5LaUPPzLCYgIckh6jUKaW1ywD8errnGG6YXxXuL8mBzQE1JyrSO2Wck55MWrflEbOow-FVyXWX4BoJ1J05go/s1600/brush+box+ateration+010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="cssfloat: left; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" gu="true" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhoLyRj7sMgTydKMHj5BLEUikNy-c8ueW_cVIXJK1nABt1he44zMxQRaW5LaUPPzLCYgIckh6jUKaW1ywD8errnGG6YXxXuL8mBzQE1JyrSO2Wck55MWrflEbOow-FVyXWX4BoJ1J05go/s320/brush+box+ateration+010.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6voxX_cVy5CpryypHk-qAPXeZZG2ad66UwwcEGH9ooVutmhrva5rq_fe-0V80hwufP2NLDjavYaAHjIh532b_Ovb2-lWqErziaxoQkf5_2FxAF7c220INxKVsxkKc1qof9fUFRkz7-i4/s1600/brush+box+ateration+012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="cssfloat: left; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" gu="true" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6voxX_cVy5CpryypHk-qAPXeZZG2ad66UwwcEGH9ooVutmhrva5rq_fe-0V80hwufP2NLDjavYaAHjIh532b_Ovb2-lWqErziaxoQkf5_2FxAF7c220INxKVsxkKc1qof9fUFRkz7-i4/s320/brush+box+ateration+012.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="blogsiggy3" border="0" height="51" src="http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/kwilt/blogsiggy3.png" width="200" /></div></div>Kwilthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09717812760314164827noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905749895279882.post-64498203331864217242010-05-31T18:29:00.005-05:002010-05-31T18:39:33.345-05:00Testing out Bloggers' new insert image tab...and a pic from my Breyers party<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This is just a pic of the items I got for free for my Breyers Ice Cream party from Houseparty.com.

The Breyers Ice Cream card is an invite that I slapped together quite quickly for a Breyers Ice Cream party through Houseparty.com I'm having on Saturday. I used my Make The Cut awesome software program to weld the Breyers logo to a ice cream bar coloring book page I traced into MTC. I decided to color the image with Copics instead of paper piecing...very terrible job at that, I was trying to rush the project and didn't stay in the lines!!! I told DH I wanted to make a better card, but he reminded me it was just an invite...LOL!!! </div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6j2g8aLzK1gLeZhpqv9FRZGR46Zv11ollo0vTU2tGV7okPHTu5t08eBa0nXBnKIIEilkJQZXvBFB9bhcWQbYQ6R3ZJ1GaQzD82j2wUzKLsiLT0P5whGHJC1BEjqW_ZaheCudeXpWkorQ/s1600/DSC03992.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472104113011190994" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6j2g8aLzK1gLeZhpqv9FRZGR46Zv11ollo0vTU2tGV7okPHTu5t08eBa0nXBnKIIEilkJQZXvBFB9bhcWQbYQ6R3ZJ1GaQzD82j2wUzKLsiLT0P5whGHJC1BEjqW_ZaheCudeXpWkorQ/s400/DSC03992.JPG" style="height: 300px; width: 400px;" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxSP9Pd9AqQeqQ7pHKDGJ5kq7LLDZlrVc9Y52hldYn4hUJuuXSkwDr-PFfZjFWHXb5TRwn8kjjGYpwiFEmdKn1nCTYveW28d96-4BR1HuzF7oIS2ObwSzsmeoNu5n1jtnLJ-5tA5jkz_0/s1600/DSC03986.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472106600792395618" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxSP9Pd9AqQeqQ7pHKDGJ5kq7LLDZlrVc9Y52hldYn4hUJuuXSkwDr-PFfZjFWHXb5TRwn8kjjGYpwiFEmdKn1nCTYveW28d96-4BR1HuzF7oIS2ObwSzsmeoNu5n1jtnLJ-5tA5jkz_0/s400/DSC03986.JPG" style="height: 300px; width: 400px;" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/kwilt/2siggy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img align="center" border="0" src="http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/kwilt/2siggy.jpg" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px;" /></a></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: justify;"><br />

Answer: A few MONTHS!!! Next question..."WHEN did I actually start making the autograph book that I wanted to send along with her????" Answer: THREE DAYS BEFORE THEY LEFT!!!! I am officially the Procrastinating Queen! Needless to stay after pulling off two consectutive scrapping till 3:30 in the morning and having to be at work by 8:00 am....running home on a lunch hour and feverously trying to put some sort of finishing touches on the darn thing before presenting it to the 6 year old...I got it MOSTLY done. With the promise I will finish, embellish, and mat the pics they take when they return home. Please be kind. There are a few "scarey" eyes on the characters...lol...and a bit of shakey lines drawn on a few pages because my body was starting to shut down with shear exhaustion! But here it is...I think it's pretty cute despite the limit of time I put on myself. I can only imagine how nice it could have been if I took all the time I had from when I decided I would like to do this.<br />
<br />
I really don't like the pressure to finish in a short time...so when will I learn??</span> </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-size: 130%;">BTW...I cut Kamiko's name using my Make The Cut software! Such a cool tool! I found a free Disney font and uploaded to the software and within minutes I had it cut out...COOL! :o)</span></span><br />
