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!!!***

What you'll need to create the AWESOME storage box pictured here is: 1 Double Deep Art Bin 1 plastic grid for ceiling lighting (found at your local home improvement store) 1 half inch thick wooden square dowel (also found at your local home improvement store) Dimensional adhesive squares Wire cutters or sheers Screws with corresponding drill bit Drill So I first cut the ceiling grid down to 19 squares by 19 squares using my wire cutters.   You will need two 19 x 19 sections of grid material.   The wire cutters went through the plastic material of the grid like butter and I

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
