What IS my problem???

I have to admit to totally not doing this blog. I mean, really, how hard is it?!?!?!? It's just taking time and doing it. So here I am doing. I'm working on a freebie for my blog. Hopefully that will be sometime this week :).

Some news, Christina Renee did disband her team. Then she asked me to stay on as a Creative Partner. What is so great is that CR is letting us link to our stores, blogs, etc. plus we get to write articles, tutorials, post freebies and more at Authentic Artistry. People can bash her all they want, but she has helped me as a designer and is so helpful. Also, she'll tell you like it is. Don't get the hatin' on her, but that's those peoples problem. Life is way to short to worry about crap like that.

I hope to have two new things at Sophia Sarducci next week, but I won't have anything tomorrow. My son had spring break and he was with his dad sooooo mom got a little break and I didn't worry about anything else. Woo hoo! I've been so inspired lately by clean graphics AND old, vintagey stuff. What the heck?!?!?! LOL Now, I just have to fit them in together. :)

April 10th new The Office episodes. Yes, I'm doing a happy dance. Just a bit more to keep me going until fall. Saw The Other Boleyn Girl which was good, but depressing too. Lots of good previews though. On my list to see:

Sex and the City
Mama Mia
new Patrick Dempsey movie too

I'll be coming on this week to show some really great stuff that I've found along with some great stuff from the designers I CT from.

Peace Out!

Spring, Lace, Jewels and ooops forgot!!!

Boy oh boy am I ready for spring. I just got my cold back and now I have no voice. Ugh! I want 60 degrees, green grass, hyacinth blooming, kids playing outside....no more gray snow, cold, snow blowers or scarves. It's seems the older I get them more I want winter to end and spring to start. Is it spring fever or am I becoming an old fart, or both?


As you know I love all my CT's. This month I am lucky enough to have been asked by Rachel Young of Funky Playground Designs to be on her CT for March. It just amazes me how great these designers are. Each one brings something different, but so lovely. Since we are on the subject of CT's ;) Christina Renee is having a fabulous sale. She's basically clearing out the old stuff in order to get the new stuff out there. In fact, lots of stuff will be gone forever so grab it now. Her new stuff is just starting to come into the store. She now has:



Lace-Worn & Torn. Fabulous ripped, worn, tattered lovely goodies. So pretty and I used them on a boy layout so it can be done :)



Treasured Jewels. Just great vintage goodies. I used them on a layout of Hampton Court. The vintage goodness goes perfectly with my layout.


Christina has a bunch more stuff to come so keep your eyes open.




I have a freebie, but here's the thing LOL. This was supposed to be for Valentine's Day, but I forgot about it. It is pretty basic. Lots of transparency hearts and a broken, black heart for when love just stinks. You can grab it HERE.


So what else....Top Chef starts tonight. Woo hoo! I just love that Tom Colicchio. What can I say? American Idol. Could Kristy Lee have sung that song any worse? No. Prediction...she's outta there. Have you seen the preview for "Leatherheads" with George Clooney (yummy), Renee Zellwegger and the the equally scrumptious John Krasinski from The Office? Looks pretty cute. Hmmmm....I'm on Facebook now. Pretty cool and I honestly like it more than My Space. I think that's about it. I promise to do this more. I'm just sick of being sick.



Oh!!!! Here' a new favorite of mine. These bobby pins by Mira Designs @ Scraphead are just toooo cute.

Later gator!!!
