UFP

So, what does UFP stand for? Unidentified Flying Pumpkin. As many of you read, Drew was an alien for Halloween and so we entered the pumpkin decorating/carving contest. We made a UFP and it was a hit. He took 1st place and I think we might have started a craze for next years competition.

Some Supplies Used: Little Yellow Bicycle paper, some older than old blue printed halloween paper, thickers, felt spider webs, prima bling, Pink Paislee scalloped paper, prima stars and eyelets, and alien head from space chipboard set.

What a Blast!

Well, as you've previously read, I attended the "No Frills Just Fun" crop at Paula's this past weekend. I have to say we had a blast! We cropped, we visited, we ate, we prayed...it was a very eventful weekend. I enjoyed spending time with Ms. Beatriz, Connie, Janet and so many more. I met new friends that made me laugh and oh, I even laughed at myself on a few occasions! You'd of had to been there on Sunday to know what I'm talking about. I created 11 layouts, mostly 2 page layouts. I have decided to post 1 new layout each day...so stay tuned for more layouts! The layout below I used the Prima butterfly vine, and SEI paper is used for the background. Prima leaves, K & Co. sticker and new thickers were used as well. Hope you enjoy and check back tomorrow!

Off to the Lady Bug Lodge

Yes, I am somewhat ready for a weekend full of cropping, visiting with friends and making new friends. Paula is having her crop again, out at the LadyBug Lodge. It is a no frills just fun crop. Which is just what I enjoy, there are no schedules or make n takes...just lots of cropping. She is making us a Gumbo for Saturday night which is a nice added touch this time. I hope that I crank out some quick layouts to help get me caught up on my own stuff. I'll post pictures as soon as possible...stay tuned!

Knee Bone... Connected to Your ...Leg Bone

What's in the middle? Well, I didn't realize we had things in our calves that could go POP! Yesterday while playing an awesome tennis match, we only needed to win 1 last game to win the match....and I ran for a ball and "POP" I fell to my knees if hurt so bad. Well, to say the least I have pulled or torn something, not sure what, but I can't walk! Debating on whether to go to the doctor. I must say, I am really busy right now with all my classes coming up. I surely don't have much time for this to be taking place. But, I will say............It was so worth it! I hobbled around long enough win that last game and we won!!! Well, okay so I was at the net and didn't have to move and my partner Sheryll worked her tail off the last game. Sheryll you Rock!! Of course those girlies we played didn't feel too bad for me they kept hitting the ball straight to me (at least they hit them to me, because I wasn't moving!!!) They actually wanted me to forfeit the game...were they insane??? Well, I was playing a lady who was an emergency room doctor, but I wasn't giving in or going down that easy. Go R4!!! So to all of you who are taking my class next Tuesday, have some mercy on me please! We'll have fun, being that I can't move around, I'm at least getting instructions made, and I think today I may prop my leg up and scrapbook a little for Ms. Lahaye.

November Class at TM

Good morning fellow scrappers. Just wanted to take this time to post my November Calendar Class. Although my 3 classes are full, there are always cancellations that must be made so if you are still interested in getting on the waiting list please call the store at 216-9898.
This is the write up for the class. "Wendy has created a beautiful fall layout! First of all, you will be working with SEI's flocked texture papers! It's been awhile since we used sei papers in a class, but we couldn't resist because the colors and textures were just perfect!!! Techniques??? This layout is full of them. How Wendy comes up with new techniques every month is a mystery to me, but this month she is going to show you how to create your own wooden fence from scratch! We are also using the Prima butterfly vines and a bunch of Ranger and Tim Holtz products. She's going to teach you an all new way to create an antique look with Tim Holtz Rock Candy and......sorry I can't tell you.....you have to take the class! All I can say is that Wendy is amazing!" Thanks Janet for the nice description.
