Started A New Layout

I started a new scrapbook layout today, but didn't get very far. I basically just chose the pictures and the background. Here it is

That's about it for today, back to work tomorrow. Have a great day. 

My First Crop

I went to my first crop today at The Scrapbook Tree and Stamp Garden. I was GREAT!!! They had a ton of great die cuts, plus the store is amazing to shop at. Probably the best scrapbook store I have been to so far. I can't wait to go back. 

I also listed a new dog in the Pink Chihuahua Art Etsy Shop. He's really adorable so make sure to check it out. 

Also got an adorable dress form from Marshall's today. 

It's getting late so I better go. Here are a few pictures from the day.

EDIT for some reason the pictures on not working on this post. You can see them on my FLICKR page just click HERE

Celebrating

Today I am celebrating 25 hearts for my etsy store, and another sale. Bringing the grand total to 5 which I think is pretty good for 2 1/2 weeks, and just starting out. YEAH! Thanks everyone!

I am also anxiously awaiting Donna Downey to update her website so I can see how her Inspired Artists Workshop went. I did happen to come across some pictures of the event on flickr, you can see them HERE. I love the dress forms they made, so adorable!

Well have a good day everyone!

The Weekend Is Over.....

It's back to work tomorrow. YUCK! But I had a fun weekend of crafting. I got a few projects done and most of them are in the Pink Chihuahua Art Etsy Shop make sure to check them out and see if there is anything you like! I plan on making some more bugs and things tonight and posting them tomorrow. I made this adorable dog too, and right now he's just too cute, so I'm going to keep him for myself for a little while. 

I also made a trip to Joann's today and got 60 sheets of scrapbook paper for around $10.00. I believe this sale is going on until May 3rd so there is plenty of time for us paper-a-holics to stock up. They don't have the widest selection like a regular scrapbooking store, but they have the basics, and some cute ones. Michael's doesn't have an ad paper out this week, so nothing to exciting going on there. 

I'm hoping to maybe make it to a crop night or something in the next week so I get some ideas before I go to Great Lakes Mega Meet. 

And if any scrapbookers are bored check out Two Peas In A Bucket.com I stumbled on the site a few days ago. They have everything from supplies to forums where you can chat with other croppers. 

Have a great night, and don't forget NEW Desperate Housewives tonight!!

A Video Blog

I really like this iMovie thing! :)

A new mixed media art on canvas I made earlier today with pages from a 1960's fashion book I got at the salvation army.

Work Work Work

Wouldn't it be wonderful if there were enough hours in the day to work a full time job and make crafts full time?? Unfortunately there isn't, which means I haven't got much of anything done lately. I have to work 1 -10 today and then be back at the store at 7:45 tomorrow morning and work til 4:00. So maybe I will get something done tomorrow after work, but if not I will make a lot of things this weekend. I'm off the WHOLE weekend! WOOHOO! Have a great day everyone.

New Items

There are 6 new items in the etsy shop. Check them out! PINK CHIHUAHUA ART ETSY

Also bought an adorable Amy Butler scrapbook tote. Now I just have to put some use to it and go to a crop night and a scrapbook convention. I will be going to the Great Lakes Mega Meet on May 9th and 10th. I can't wait. Carol Duvall will be there, and I'm sure a ton of great stuff to buy. So check out the etsy shop and keep your eyes open for more new stuff tomorrow.

New Amy Butler Scrapbook Tote

Today Is An Exciting Day!

I finally figured out how to use iMovie on my computer! Check this wonderful video out and make sure to check in throughout the day as things get added to the site!

Paper Fun

I am starting a new line of paper/scrapbooking embellishments. I played around a little this morning before I had to go to work and come up with this. 

After...

A messy workspace is now clean, and I will be crafting up a storm these next few days. Expect some clay creations and some new scrapbook and paper creations. Have a great weekend.

No crafting today.....

I got a little distracted shopping so no crafting today. I had  a lot of fun checking out scrapbook stores and then got home and was too busy sorting through my new stash. My workspace is also a mess, so I'm going to clean it up tomorrow and get to work and hopefully get a ton of stuff done this weekend.

My VERY messy workspace

My New Stuff

A failed attempt.....

I painted this owl yesterday, and because I am an impatient person, I did not wait for the paint to completely dry and he kind of smeared. But I kind of like it. Let me know what you think. 

Also, I've gotten emails and comments on the blog for more bugs. They are coming!!! I will probably have some done by tomorrow. Email me if you want me to put one aside for you, or if you have a request. There will probably be some done by Thursday evening.
