Yup it's 2 a.m. and I'm still up. It doesn't help that I fell asleep on the couch and Tim let me sleep for 3 hours!! It was sweet of him to let me sleep but now I'm wide awake when I should be in bed!! LOL
We're going in to the city tomorrow (today!) to have dinner and see a movie or two - I am SO looking forward to getting out and doing stuff w/ just the two of us. I kid you not when I say I haven't left the house since Monday. I am a total homebody so I enjoy being at home but being a SAHM and getting out of the house only once a week can really get to a person!! Normally I get out more but this past little while I haven't and I can't wait to go!!
I got 4 scrapbook pages done today and they all turned out really well so I'm happy. I get a really deep sense of accomplishment when I complete a SB page that I don't get from card-making. I think it's b/c SBing means so much to me as I am preserving my family's memories for us to enjoy for hopefully decades to come. I will try to start posting pages this week - I need to figure out the best way to scan/take pics of them and all that first and it's going to be quite the job to pull them all out and do that. It will be nice to get to it tho b/c I've always wanted copies of all my pages either saved to a disk or in my SCS gallery in case anything happens to my book.
Anywho I categorized this post under Card Creations so I guess I better upload a card for y'all to look at eh?? LOL here's the very first Halloween card I ever made (I didn't upload it at first b/c I had started making it w/ the intention of submitting it to SU for the Halloween Category but missed the deadline - so I finished it and it's been sitting her ever since!):
Here's my Frankie. I really love the Booglie Eyes set from SU - it's just SO cute.
I stamped him on Whisper White using Basic Black and then colored him in w/ Craft Inks and an Aqua Painter. I used the stamp from Beyond the Basics w/ Only Orange Craft on the Black CS.
I used Sweet Shop Ribbon and the Dots & Dashes DS paper along w/ all my circle punches to embellish.
