Ok gang!  I don't have much to post today other than I'M TOTALLY DIGGIN MY NEW OCTOPODE FACTORY DIGI!!!!!!!!  This little guy is awesome!!!  Click HERE to get your hands on him.  Also, the Create With TLC sentiment is pretty perfect with this little guy, huh?!?

Now when I originally colored him, I made the center of his eyes green and that WAS just so cute, but with all that eye area looking back at me (haha), I just knew I couldn't just leave it so clean and cute.  I had to "creep" this cutie pie up a bit..... VIOLA!!!   Here's a close up of those blood shot eyes (click on pic to enlarge):



As always, there's a little story playing in my head as I'm coloring this guy and it makes me chuckle out loud as I'm picturing a hung-over butterfly who dipped into the dead flower garden that was just a little too over-shaded.  The flowers are (of course) fermented and we end up with a cross between Betty Ford and the insect version of Pepe Le Pew!  I'm just sayin!!!

Past 7 Days....

MY VERY FIRST CRICUT CARTRIDGE GIVE AWAY!

Ok ... so the time has come. I've got some BRAND NEW, NEVER BEEN USED, STILL IN THE PLASTIC Cricut Cartridges to give away over the next couple of months and it starts with one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES...... Hannah Montana! YAY! I LOVE this cartridge! It's got the most beautiful guitar images along with musical notes and FIVE fonts! I used the regular font and the rock star font to create my Father's Day card this year (see above). I also used the Hannah Montana cart (see below) to create a beautiful butterfly (FREE Gypsy cut file HERE ), and am currently working on a project using the gorgeous solitaire diamond. There's a rose and lips and decorative hearts, even a Pegasus ! There's just so much on this cartridge.... I use it a lot! To call this a "font" cartridge is terribly misleading. It's been a long time favorite and now I'm THRILLED to be able to give it away to one of my awesome readers! So here's how to win: Become one of my follower

The Old Clunker

A few years back I received a Creative Zen Micro Photo for Christmas. It was wonderful! The fact that I could finally carry around all my music in a super small (or I thought at the time)2.25" x 3.5" music player was sheer freedom from carrying around that old, large, portable cd player and I won't even go into the tons of music cds that also had to go along for the ride. Ok... so I'll mention them briefly, hahahahaha! And I was also surprised by how much lighter this music player was. At 5.5 oz., wearing it fashionably on an armstrap to the gym put me in the leagues with the top fitness buffs. Then something shifted... I was no longer hip, or in, or cool anymore. Suddenly everything shrunk and my music player was now a gigantic dinosaur! What the heck?!? Now everyone was sporting music players that were as big as the face of a watch and were a million times lighter than mine. All of a sudden I was back in the 7th grade trying to convince my mom to buy me the latest
