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

WARNING: This post is pic heavy!!!

So here I am with part two of my visit to La Push... well, my FIRST visit.  You see this place is SO MUCH MORE than the gorgeous, life-force-recharging place that I showed you in yesterday's post.  It is actually quite the destination.  With a resort, cabin rentals, fishing charters and tribal activities (I missed the evening's drum circle bonfire... DANG IT), this place has plenty to offer to fill up an entire vacation.  I intend to return and stay for awhile; one day was just not enough!


Ok, this place blows Starbucks out of the water!  The morning necessity for coffee mixed with some Twilight handsome hunk fun equals Jacob's Java.  Sure to morph you in ten seconds flat!  hahahahaha!  WHY isn't this place nation-wide yet???


This one is just a revisit of the beauty I showed you in yesterday's post.  Check out that water!!!


The forest seemed to encapsulate La Push.  Do you see where the shadow line is?  It seemed like that line was EXACTLY the same when we arrived at La Push as when we left.  It was like that shadow line was the portal to my own personal fairy tale.


Along with the resort itself, there are MANY cabin rentals available at La Push.  Here are a few we drove by...






This is just really, really funny! :)

Gratuitous forest pic... hahahahahaha!  You know I had to do it!!!

Ok, that's it for my visit to La Push.  Stay tuned for my visit to Forks and the world of Twilight!!!

Past 7 Days....

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...

COMING SOON!

And everyone remembers the good ol' days when visiting this blog got you an incredible discount on REUSABLE nail art to create gorgeous nails and for gift giving!?! Well if you don't, I posted a pic for you to see what I'm talking about. I did the mani shown here myself!

My Kind of Art

Welp, today was girl's day! I was so lucky to spend the afternoon with great friends at one of my favorite venues... a rubber stamp fair! And while this post is REALLY about the AMAZING gem that is pictured here, I do want to mention how sad I was to see the fair was about 1/8 of what it has been in past years. Gone were the ENORMOUS door prizes, in their place were coupons that were given to the lucky winners. Replacing the shoulder to shoulder vendor booths were widely spread vendor tables that didn't even fill the convention center. In past years we could barely make it through the thick crowd and today was a leisurely meander through slim pickins. I was sad to see that this event that I always looked so forward to had diminished so drastically in our struggling economy. The brighter side of this sad, sad tale is the fact that I didn't have to scratch anyone's eyes out or pull anyone's hair to get my hands on the amazing artwork that you see here. Featured here ...
