Finally

Well, I've been feeling pretty bad for the last weeek or so (some sort of virus that attacked me), and I'm quite disappointed in myself. First, for not posting for 2 consecutive weekends and second for not meeting my annual goal of finishing last year's scrapbook by 2/14. I actaully did work on some projects, but just didn't post them. Here's the stuff from 2 weekends ago: It was the beginning of SAB and my wonderful demo had a make and take bash at her home.
This was what we made. I love the texture plates!


All week I had been working on this next project for a friend. I cased it from a bunch of SCS posters, so i can't give a single person credit, but I guess it it most similar to the one posted by amherstamper. I love the way it turned out, but it really took a long time to make.

I was able to get a little scrapping in the following weekend, but that's when I started coming down with the dreaded virus. This layout was a baby shower for a collegue who adopted a baby from China.



In addition to the scrapping, I had to make a couple valentines since it was Valentine's Day. Hubby and I are trying to save money, so we did not go all out for that holiday. I just made him a super simple little package for some candy and made a few of the same card for my other valentine's. I forgot to snap some pics of the cute little Ghiradelli boxes for my colleagues for Valentine's Day.




Well, that's all from the last couple weeks. I also made a cute little chocolate bar and card Thursday, for another colleague's birthday, but forgot to snap a shot before I gave it away, It was adorable and she loved it. It was a Dove dark chocolate "Beautiful" bar. They are chock full of nutrients to help keep your skin in tip top shape. Hey, it works for my excuse to eat one!

I guess I better get busy on some stuff to post for this weekend. I have a pile of papers to grade, an IEP to write and 3 more events to scrap from last year. In addition there are 2 birtdays next week, so tata for now....

Not much going on

Well, I had a really tough time getting motivated to do anything this weekend. I did manage to get a couple things done though. The first is a card and gift for a collegue. Inside the package there are a couple of stamps. The next is that darling little box on Splitcoast's tutorial for this week (I think I'll make a bunch of these for Valentine's Day). I tucked the flap in instead of leaving it on the outside. The last is my winter blues! I thought the flowers would pull me out of my unmotivated blah weekend. It didn't work. I'm still feeling like doing not much of anything. Oh well, it happens to us all sometime. Hopefully next weekend will be more productive. I still have 5 more events to scrap for last year's album, so I hope I get my mojo back! Valentine's Day is only 2 weeks away and I think we may head up north for that weekend so that doesn't leave me much time to reach my goal of being done!
