Yard Sale Scoopage!

So I went to my 1st Turtle yard sale and we were there before the doors opened... We were outside with the other crazy ladies - me, Mom and Gab. Brenda was there, Melissa and some other lovely ladies. Good thing it was a warm day out there!
Awww what we won't do for our art!

Brian was taking photos of us out the window while Teresa and Lori's kids had nice laughs at us. Oh well - at least I had a Timmys!

We were some of the the first folks in the door and we went a little nuts on the paper and cardstock. I may have to sell some of this stuff next year but for now I feel like I CLEANED up!

Mom got a QK font too - but we can't figure out which font it is - no name at all!
It's awesome though... Hope she will let me borrow it from time to time!

Here is my stash (and Gabby's too - hers is mixed in with mine here) She found some cool stuff she wanted to get - what the hey right? Can you see the piles of paper at the back?? Crazy!





Mom's stash! She rocked the ribbon!!!

I am a Design Team Member!

WoW!
I am so pumped to be a member of the new Scrapping Turtle Design Team!
Since it is my favourite store ever and a fun place to hang out and all the ladies on the Turtle Soup Forum are fantastic - I am truly honoured.

I have my first duty to prepare for this week since the 1st of the month is Tuesday... and I already know what I will be posting. Ladies if you are checking up in here by chance and this makes you curious - visit Turtle Soup on the 1st for what I hope is a fun new challenge by me! But no hints here!!!

(Man I hope people like this one... )

Crash My Stash!

Going to my first Crash Your Stash class tonight... and because I am shy (ha ha ha) I sweet talked Laura and Mom into coming with me - and Gabby is always game for a lark...

Not much time for dinner but I brought home some wicked Ye's sushi (so cheap and so satisfying!) and I will whip up something quick for the brats and then we are off.
Good thing I made up the kits last night!

I will post the creations later this week. Laura is nervous about the class and thinks she is not ready for it. I think she will blow us all out of the water with her creativity. Like always...
Wish Megan would be into coming...

Chuck Norris for goodness sake?

Ok so I am not actually a Chuck Norris fan. I am not NOT a fan - I don't really know many of his movies KWIM?

Anyway - my sister sent me a link to the FUNNIEST thing I have seen in a long time.
I think I am NOW a fan - like it or not... This made me laugh OUT LOUD!

Check it out!

*Chuck Norris went to Burger King and ordered a Big Mac - and he got one.
*When Chuck Norris does a push up, he is not lifting himself up - he is pushing the Earth down.
*There is no evolution - just a list of creatures Chuck Norris has allowed to live.

Come ON!

I found a great place to browse and purchase homemade items. If you haven't checked out www.etsy.com - you should! A scrapper like myself - Catherine - has a cool shop you should check out. I got some wicked felt covered letters and a whole array of special funky journalling tags and title tags. The word "enjoy" above came from her shop... Check her out - Catherine's ETSY shop - http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5344845

At first he couldn't decide...

It sure did look fun.



What do you think Buddy? You going out too?



Gabby is enjoying it. What do you think?


Daddy will play with you too!



Ok Mom. I'll go...



DUCK!
