Consistency

I really must be more consistent with my posts. One post every three weeks isn't sufficient. Sadly, I have not yet placed my Stampin' Up! order. I can't believe it myself. It will be my biggest order to date.

The other day I purchased my first JetMax cube from Michael's. I purchased the cube with the three draws. It took me about two hours to put it all together. I know that is way too long, but I was watching the movie "Push" simultaneously. Good movie, but I am not a fan of movies that leave an open ending. I like my endings to be neat and conclusive.

It's 9:30 and I haven't moved from the sofa. About to shower and head to Michael's to purchase another one of the cubes. I beginning to amass everything I will need for my scraproom. ...And I love Michaels 40% off coupons.

Later that day.....

Back from a day of shopping. I visited AC Moore (in Middletown) for the first time today and I wasn't too thrilled. It appeared more like an over-priced dollar store. It was really disorganized. Luckily, there was a Michael's next door. I purchased two JetMax cubes, each at 40% off. What a deal.

My first blog - SUPER EXCITED!!!

So, I have been working on a scrapbook page dedicated to my beloved pug, JuJu. My JuJu passed away in April and I have been so lonely without her. She really was my constant companion. Since I want my page to be perfect, I have spent about 2 days on the 8" x 8" layout. I am using the Stampin' Up! Certainly Celery designer paper series. That is about the only this I am certain of. I am certain that this page will take me a couple more days to complete.

My dad passed away in May and I have begun to think about a 12 " x 12" double layout for him. The photos are chosen, however, his death is still too painful and I have been hesitant to begin the layout.

On a lighter note...I am so excited because I am expecting a Stampin' Up! haul. I am a demonstrator and I did not sell any product this quarter so I had to purchase the product for myself to meet the quarterly sales goal. I am kind of slow getting started, but I expect it to pick up soon enough. Just need to get over my shyness and jump into the waters of demonstratorship. Take a look at my Stampin' Up! page at http://stampinivy.stampinup.net. Or leave me note telling me what you think about my blog so far.

I am looking forward to blogging and hope you are excited to take this journey with me.
