I GOT AN AWARD! WOO HOO!

Bunny... THANK YOU! This is sooooo nice!

Ok y'all! Bunny over at Konad & Me tagged me for this award and I'm speechless!!! This is just so incredibly nice, especially coming from someone whose blog inspires ME! :)

So I'm supposed to tag 10 of my favorite blogs, so here-goes (it's going to be SO HARD to keep it to JUST 10)!

The Sunny Raw Kitchen - Amazing content! What a great writer too. All of her content is also accompanied with Amazing photos as well. But those recipes.... :)

Cutting Above - For any crafter/artist looking for how-to's and inspiration... this is just a great site. They will ALWAYS be one of my loved blogs.... they gave me my Gypsy! :)

Casual Lavish - Aside from being one of the most friendly bloggers I've had the chance to talk with, Vanessa over at Casual Lavish gives some pretty great review (honest reviews) of some pretty great products. She has introduced me to SO MANY new things! This is just a great all-around beauty site! :)

Chalene Johnson's Blog - She is my all time favorite DVD exercise instructor!!!! I also LOVE her vlogs. If you're looking to get fit with a TON OF FUN, check out Chalene's Turbo Jam workout DVD's and then head over to her blog for tons of info and tons of laughs!!! :)

Cricutters Anonymous - One of the things that I LOVE is crafting/scrapping... this is a WONDERFUL site for inspiration and projects! :)

Kandee The Make-up Artist - I just LOVE her blogs and the videos she posts. If you ever get a moment to check out her wedding make-up video, it is a MUST SEE for anyone who wants PERFECT make-up! :) She's also gorgeous inside and out. I SO wanna be Kandee when I grow up! hahahahaha! :)

Nail Addicts Anonymous - my nails are my obsession! I used to be a nail biter, so having nails and making them look pretty after spending my WHOLE LIFE with dreadful nails... well, it's like crack. I'm serious! And it's people like the wonderful girls at Nail Addicts Anonymous that remind me that I'm not alone. It helps that their pics are out of this world with polish swatches and manis that make me want to run and buy stock in nail polish remover!!! This is definitely one of my new faves! :)

Polish and Powder - Again... another source of enabling... uh, I mean inspiration for my nails! :)

Tuesday Treats - This blog is a MUST FOLLOW for any crafter who owns a Gypsy. The ladies who started this blog have a PASSION for creating the most amazing crafts. This is a new favorite that I hope to be a part of VERY SOON!!! :)

Konad & Me - Ok, so as I mentioned before Bunny's blog inspires me! If you are looking for some amazing ideas for nail art from someone who has GORGEOUS nails and BRILLIANT ideas, then THIS is the blog for you. Also, anyone new to the world of Konad can really benefit because she posts VERY regularly and ALWAYS on Konad Nail Art! :)

Welp, there's 10. I WISH I could tag 30! Thanx again for this award Bunny! You made my night, hence all the smiley faces! hahahahahahahaha! :)

Past 7 Days....

Seriously Crazy!

Oh man! Look at the fridge in my garage. And that's only about half of it!!! The rest of my Bountiful Basket is in the fridge in my kitchen. Crazy! I'm here to tell you about my very first experience with Bountiful Baskets . I was told that Bountiful Baskets was a great way to save money on quality produce, so I thought I'd give it a try and see; and you can tell by the pic, that was today! Well, my fridge is PACKED! And every bit of it is organic. Look at how nice all of that produce looks. It's beautiful. After signing up on the website (click link above), I started reading that you can volunteer at the pick up site and help distribute; for your work, you can get extra produce. That was a nice bonus, but today I volunteered with the nicest people and to be honest I had so much fun, I would have done that for free. Needless to say (but I will say it anyway) I will be doing this again in 2 weeks. So here's the lowdown. For $25 dollars, I got what you see in the pic ...

Gorgous Leaves Bundle Revisited

Yestday's Freebie Friday on a Monday projects were so fun and this set is SO BEAUTIFUL in it's simplicity!  It reminds me of a long-retired stamp set from Stampin Up!.  I was inspired to re-create the projects that I made with it once upon a time.  So here we go.... SIMPLE projects when you need a quick "hello" or an even quicker heartfelt sympathy card: I was DEFINITELY on a Bumblebee and Cajun Craze kick yesterday!  I can't stop/won't stop!  LOL!  To be fair... I had extra leaves die cut and didn't want anything to go to waste!  A quick speckle backdrop in Bumblebee then a quick "hello" greeting from the Biggest Wish in Cajun Craze with the Cajun Craze leaf popped up on a Basic White cardbase.  PERFECTION! Okay, as with yesterday's projects, the sentiment is from the recently retired SAB Delicate Dahlia's set, but you could use ANY sympathy sentiment you have in your stash.  Unlike in the past when I had to mask off the center rectangle...

How to Upload Gypsy Cut Files To Your Gypsy

Well... Today was the big day for the Provo Craft Gypsy! Provo Craft FINALLY provided the Cricut Design Studio compatibility and now we also have the added benefit of sharing Gypsy cut files... but it was at a price. I will get to that in a later post. In honor of this occasion though, I will be adding my Gypsy cut files to my blog for everyone to use. You will find my cut files in the top right corner of my blog marked *NEW (at the top of the side bar). The instructions on how to download at the bottom of this post. I hope you all enjoy them... they've been a long time coming. The featured pic here is the "welded Snow" file. It turned out BEAUTIFUL! DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS For those of you who already own the Gypsy, here are the instructions. There is no conversion needed because these files are only .gypsy files. To save them: 1.) Connect your gypsy to your computer, turn it on and open Gypsy Sync on your computer. 2.) Once the Gypsy Sync Program has searched for an updat...
