La Push Baby... It's La Push! Part One

WARNING:  This post is pic heavy!!!
Ok, so here are some of my pics from La Push.  This place is... well.... special!  It is so much more than what I expected from reading about it or seeing it in Twilight (note... the La Push beach shown in the movie IS NOT in La Push which is a shame because the actual La Push is AMAZING.  I did not know this until my visit.).  This place NEEDED to be seen and I don't think I ever would have if it wasn't for Stephenie Meyer's Twilight.  The minute we arrived I felt very at peace and connected.  The air smelled very clean and the water was a jewel-toned blue.  The seagulls calling out in the background were the perfect touch to make this experience UNFORGETTABLE!!!  I just cannot say enough about how wonderful La Push is.  So instead, I will just shut up and show you a few of the MANY INCREDIBLE shots that I got the day I visited my new favorite place in the world.









Do you like how I finished this off?  OF COURSE I had to end this with the gratuitous forest shot!  It's very "Twilighty" don't you think?  hahahahahaha!  Anyway, swing by tomorrow for part two of my visit to La Push, WA.

Past 7 Days....

A Gluten Free Life

WOWOWOWOW!!!  So I HOPE you all are missin me!  I haven't been posting much lately because I've got my FULL focus on taking this weight off so that I can go wedding dress shopping.  The good news is that its working.  That bad news is, I'm discovering that gluten was the culprit for the problem in the first place!!!! Years ago, after being diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, I had a nutritionist tell me that I shouldn't be eating anything containing wheat and should probably stay away from oats as well.  She never explained exactly why or what it was doing to my body, she only said that there was strong evidence that people with chronic fatigue syndrom were sensative to wheat.  Not putting much stock into what I was told... I mean, come on, it wasn't like I broke out in hives or my breathing became restricted (and quite frankly, I didn't believe that I could live without my beloved bread and pasta), I continued eating what I was told I shouldn't have.

Halloween! With Stampin Up's Words of Cheer

 I went a little crazy when this bundle came.... the projects you're about to see were just FOUR that jumped out of me the first day of its arrival.  Stay tuned... later in the week I'll be showing a couple more that resulted from the awesomeness that is this set!!!  With Halloween around the corner I felt like I needed to share a few EASY and fun ideas as this die set is pretty versatile.  Also, I won't lie.... I LOVED revisiting The Cutest Halloween set and a sneak peek at Well Defined was a definite bonus!!!  Don't forget to snag the free PDF that can be found just under the last pic in this post for a complete list of supplies and measurements for these cards: This IS EVERYTHING!!!!  I cannot get over how adorable this turned out with the cute skulls and how perfectly the sentiment works with this!  My apologies as I just realized that I forgot to show the addition of the matte dots in the video!!!! Isn't this the EASIEST Halloween card???  The video shows the H

And So It Begins

Guess what I got in the mail!!!  The Stampin Up 2014 Holiday Catalog!!!!  And to celebrate the pre-holiday ordering season, my demonstrator gave me some stamped images to play with.  Of all of them, the Happy Hanukkah stamp JUMPED OUT AT ME!   I'll give you three guesses why.... isn't this SPOOKILY DELICIOUS?!? I IMMEDIATELY thought of Halloween when I saw this GORGEOUS candelabra and requested it be stamped without the "Happy Hanukkah" sentiment as it is all one stamp.  The Hanukkah example in the catalog is really very beautiful, but this sort of SCREAMS Halloween to me.  I'll give you two more guesses what will be on my next Stampin Up order.... LOL! And so it begins!  This is my first Halloween project this year and my blood is boiling with excitement for the upcoming Halloween season. Gonna have to brew some coffee.... I'm gonna be inking up some more Halloween fun!  MAN!  I need to get moving on my costume!!!!
