I need more TIME...

Time is always something that we never have enough of. LOL We always wish we had more time in the day to get things done.. Rather if it is house work, time alone or scrappin. This weekend I decided I was gonna scrap all weekend. There was an online crop at Imagine Create Scrap and I was invited to Michelle and Vickies B-day Crop. Well I woke up Saturday with a massive Migrane. Not fun. It's always when I have a Migrane that eveyone in the house decides to be LOUD or fight over EVERYTHING. UGHhhhh So I had to call Michelle and tell her I wasn't able to attend but was still going to come by to drop off some orders the gals placed. Totally bummed because I had all my stuff organized to go... Well I came home from dropping orders off and decided I would rub VICKS all over my temples, forehead and back of my neck. Within 20 min. it was gone. I felt like a new woman and I was ready to scrap. LOL I spent most of Friday night working on this layout....

It was for a challenge for the Imagine Create Scrap Crop. We had to use Paint, Ink, Sanding, Sewing, Ribbon, Chipboard and rub-ons on one layout..... Totally right up my ally as I love to use lots of stuff on a layout.

Then Saturday night I spent some time organizing the mess I made on Friday night... Then got a creative moment and spent a whole 5 min on this layout.

The little girl in the picture is My Best Friends daughter. Isn't she cute.... I thought it went awesome with the paper... The paper is totally awesome. It has glitter all over it. The scan doesn't show it that well...

I started another layout but I ran out of time and mojo so i'm waiting for the mojo to come back so I can finish it.

I'm so excited......

We had an online Chat with Marah Johnson several weeks ago at Scrappin Trends. She asked all of us to send her pictures of what we do with her products.... This weekend I finished up my "Unconditional Love" mini book I have been working on... So I sent he a link to my gallery where I have them listed... I got a reply back from her asking me to send her the original pics so she can put them on her BLOG.... OH WOW... Everyone that knows me knows that I love Marah's fresh and funky products... Her color choices she uses when designing her products are AMAZING...... Here is a link "Marah's Blog" it's also on my sidebar. I used her Love Struck line for my book and added some of my own Doodling "the big heart" , ribbons and paint. In this book I wanted to use up some of those not so great photos that I had....

Great Customer Service

So when it comes to companies we usually find out how they really are by how the Customer Service is. Well I just have to say that Daisy D's is at the top of my list for the BEST EVER... I just placed an order with them on Friday which after chatting with Jennifer at Daisy D's to get all the info I needed. She is awesome and so needs an award for having to answer all my questions. LOL Then I sent her an e-mail letting her know I placed my order online and then of course had a few more questions. I got a responce back right away... WHOA again!!! So this morning I got a phone call from Daisy D's letting me know my order is shipping... HOW awesome is that??? I have never ever had a company call me to let me know my order is shipping. It's not a HUGE HUGE order but still an order. I was totally taken off guard by the phone call that it really didn't register till after I hung up. DUH me.... So I had to take some time to send Jennifer an e-mail letting her know how AWESOME they are... Once again I got a reply back right away. So yup Daisy D's in now my most FAVORITE Company... I have always Loved LOVED Loved there products and I can't wait to see what they have in store for us at CHA. I do have to say that they have an amazing line out right now.... It's called MODERN ROMANCE. We at Scrappin Trends will have this line in later this week and I couldn't help but start to showcase it.. With that said here is a layout featuring Daisy D's Mondern Romance Line

There is a funny little story that goes with this MUG shot of a picture of my daugther. She is always running away when she see's me with the camera. Something about her hair or this or that. LOL Well one of Miranda's favorite things to do is SLEEP so I decided I would wake her up so I got my camera and away I went up to her room. Yup I started taking pictures of her sleeping. She woke up really fast... LOL Anyway this is one of those pictures... Man I wish I could wake up and look that good. LOL Everything on this layout is Daisy D's except the buttons and ribbons. I just love the "Be Yourself" Rub-on...

Notes to my children...

I always love to put little notes in my kids lunches etc... I also love to scrap pages and instead of journaling about what is going on in the picture or what we were doing I love to leave notes to my children on my layouts... Here is a layout I did with the January kit Featured at Scrappin Trends....

I added some of the title and tags Clair de Lune & Daisy D's rub-ons which I have to say are freaken amazing..... If you haven't seen there new rub-ons yet.. Keep an eye on Scrappin Trends next week because we have some coming....
