Winner Announcement!!!

Ok gang!!!  I'm a bit late with announcing the winner of my Twilighty Goody Bag but it's because I've been a little laid up.  I had a little accident with my lab puppy who is an infant in an ENORMOUS dog's body.  Well, you can kind of see where this is going!!!  About a week and a half ago I tripped over him breaking a toe and hurting my back.  This has NOT been a fun time for me so PLEASE accept my apologies for the oh-so-late winner announcement.  So the winner of my Twilighty Goody Bag is:  AKUMA KANJI!!!!

I am very happy for you! Specially because you will use a proper wedding dress :) I had a cousin that happened the same thing. She married pregnant so she didn't wear a dress neither went to the curch, but when her son was baptized, when he was already around 8 years old, they decided to unite the ceremonies and so she had her chance to use a wedding dress. She was very radiant! ^__^ I hope everything will go just fine! Count me in in your Twilight giveaway: akuma[dot]kanji[at]gmail[dot]com

Thanx to everyone who played along!!!  I already sent out an email to the winner!!!

Now for some good stuff that came out of all that limping and crying after my accident!!!  I'm seeing just how DETERMINED I am to have that wedding dress.  Even though I've been laid up, I'm STILL managing to stay on track with the Curves Complete program.  While I HAVE had to miss a couple of workouts, I'm still getting in my 10K steps a day (well, most days and quite gingerly) and eating like a girl who's getting ready to buy a wedding dress!  Woo Hoo!  What I realized is that life is still going to happen when you're looking down the barrel of realizing your dreams.  You can let things stop you or you can find a way around them.... it's all about what you CHOOSE to focus on, what it means and what we are going to do about it?  I'm choosing to focus on the girl about to buy a weeding dress, it means that it is my last chance for a REAL wedding ceremony therefore fulfilling all my girly dreams and I'm going to continue moving forward REGARDLESS of circumstances in life.  THAT means that I'm going to be relying on my body to heal itself which takes me full circle back to this wonderful Curves Complete program of eating right, exercising and one-on-one accountability.  I'm slowed slightly but still moving in the right direction!!! 

I'd like to say a quick "Thank You" to Anthony Robbins for the message that sparked my resolve.  Here's the clip that motivated me to really search myself.  While this video is surprisingly vulgar, Mr. Robbins is none-the-less anointed and spectacular.  I hope that others get out of it what I got out of it!



***MORE GOOD STUFF!!! Stay tuned for the details of my upcoming Copic class being held for the first time at Craft Fusion... YAY!!!***

Past 7 Days....

Inking Pink Blog Hop

Hi Hoppers! Danielle, a.k.a. FitterTwit here.... so glad you made it!!! If you're mid-hop, you should be arriving here from Chelsea's blog . Was that a great project or what!?! If you're just joining us and need to start the hop from the beginning, you're gonna want to head over to our lovely Hop Hostess Patricia's blog to start the fun here on our VERY IMPORTANT Inking Pink Blog Hop! Here's to Breast Cancer Awareness!!! My project for this hop is a reminder card..."Remember your checkups!" What a wonderful way to say "I love you" to a dear friend or family member. Now you may not be able to see it in the pic above, but I altered The Greeting Farm's Ebony so that her tee shirt reads, "Say YES to Mammograms!" So, today I wanted to share HOW I added the words to her tee. First I printed the words as small as I could and still be able to read the message using my laser printer onto the paper that I would be using to color in my im...

Quick Tip and Treat!

So I was on my group message board at P eertrainer.com and someone made a recommendation that I thought was wonderful! So wonderful in fact that I spent the afternoon balancing my checkbook to see if I can afford it!!!! Apparently the Magic Bullet is quite the go-to gadget for trainers and athletes! Why? Isn't that just another piece of garbage that they are trying to push on those infomercials??? Well, that's what I thought, but I've gotta say that more than one person in the discussion said that this piece of garbage is invaluable in keeping them on track with their nutrition. Here's what I heard today about the Magic Bullet: It's got a really powerful motor It really is quick and easy to use (the infomercial didn't lie) The handy single servings make it quick and easy to whip up a power shake for a quick "treat"! If you drink more than one a day, you can make many different types of shakes without continually dirtying up an entire unit! NICE! A co...

So Lame

So over at Paper Vineyard, the challenge was to create a birthday project and it COULDN'T be a card.  I've personally been creating WAY too many cards lately so I was happy to try my hand at something new..... only I didn't. :(  Instead, I was busy preparing for last week's Cricut Swarm.  Now, while I missed creating a project specifically for our Birthday Non-Card challenge, I figured the cupcake box that I made would fit the bill PERFECTLY for a birthday-themed project.  The box also has an insert for a cupcake to fit inside.  I made it with my Cricut (cuz of the whole Cricut Swarm bit) and while I ADORE this box, I sort of had a little melt down making it and I decided that this is the last Provo Craft product I will ever buy.... let me share why (read through to find out the cartridge I used for this project)! Most of you know that I DESPISE Provo Craft.  I hate that the Cricut is a one-of-kind product that I loved....
