Totally RED


Whoa!  So much red!  I don't think I've ever done anything quite so, uh, red.... hahahahahaha!  But I wanted to use this awesome sentiment by Created With TLC, so I knew I had to just dive into it!  LOL!  And the perfect image to go with it.... Tickled Pink's 30's Lylah!  Lylah is one of my favorites and you can sure see why! 

This project also features paper that I received at an all night crop not too long ago.  One of the lovely ladies who attended gave away a TON of My Mind's Eye paper.  Yah, she just gave it away!!!!  I couldn't believe it.  This stuff is the good stuff, feels like fabric instead of paper and I got it for FREE!!!  Girls Rock!  And 30's Lylah rocks!  Lylah was one of my first stamps from Tickled Pink, so I thought it was perfect to use as another submission for the Tickled Pink Stamps DT Call.  I blinged this one out simply with some tule, some ribbon and pearls... the perfect accent to this wonderfully RED tag! hahahahahaha.  The Copics I used were B0000, B16, E00, E000, E11, E25, E37, E81, R20, R22, R27, R29, R89, Y21 and finished it off with a white Sakura Gel Pen.

UPDATE:  I got an email asking if I could post a close up..... here goes. :)

Maple Syrup vs. Honey

I did a post a while back about the nutritious sweetener for the lemonade on the Master Cleanse: maple syrup ! In fact, for quite some time now it has been my only sweetner (well, that and agave nectar... YUM!). But why maple syrup... isn't honey the magical sweetener? First, let's consider where both come from. One comes from a tree and the other comes from flowers, but is predigested and then regurgitated by a bee. Can you guess which is which??? hahahaha ! Really though, just the idea that an insect's already digested nectar from a flower lends to the idea that the nectar is already devoid of nutrients when it's vomited back up. Isn't that the whole point of digestion? To pull the nutrients from whatever it is you have ingested. So is it safe to say that honey is a bi product ? Or even a waste material? I would certainly call MY vomit a waste material... what about you? But beyond the gross visual I now have in my head of honey, I also have a real concern about ...

Quite A Long Hiatus... But I'm Back!!!

What Happened????  I've been out of commission for a LONG time!  Well... there's a story!  Isn't there always???  Let me see if I can catch you all up quickly.  So once upon a time..... the real estate market crashed, this girl lost her career and started a blog to help focus on the better times that she knew HAD to be coming.  This blog helped distract, helped to focus and was an outlet for getting and doing things that money truly couldn't buy because she didn't have any to spend.  During this time I learned that I was strong, I was resourceful and, most importantly, I was capable.  But in looking back at this blog and the HUGE gap from my last post to today, I realized that I was grateful that I documented my journey and now wish I had never stopped.  So, back to the first question... what has been happening? 1.  I got my career back and actually landed my dream job. I have the UNBELIEVABLE honor of helping folks make their dre...
