Yeah! Cannot wait for the 11th now :)
By now you're in Vancouver hopefully sleeping away. I'm assuming the "drive two hours to location" is Chilliwack, where I live :) Can't wait until your official "I'm in you now Canada" tweet :) I love the thought that you're here. Really here, down the road filming, either in the Wack or Van, I consider myself from both. So I love it. You must be elated to be almost done. Yes it's been raining. We do live in a rainforest, but Wed. is supposed to be quite nice for the most part, and the only 'nice' day this week. So says our forecast : http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/city/pages/bc-24_metric_e.html
I can't believe I never watched Toy Soldiers before so I went and got it :) Going to watch it on Friday :)

on the finding (and not finding) of evil wil wheaton
We filmed until 330 this morning, and when I finally got home a little after 4am, it was all I could do to convince myself to wash off my makeup and go to sleep. I woke up at 1230 this afternoon in the same position I fell asleep, and I probably could have easily slept another 3 hours or more. W...
I love the Tootsie Roll package where the suckers have the Tootsie roll centre. We also have these adorable card games to hand out from Costco with Disney characters on them :)
Love the kit!!!

I still have a few to watch. I've been going backwards and watching all the video's. I think I started watching in the 30's. A newer fave is 51 Repurposing where Donna has made a purse/bag that is so her, very funky :) and Johanna beautifully decorates a table. Such great work. Another one I just watched was 18 About Me. It was great seeing pages about you all and I really hope to do something about me on a lo soon. Very inspiring. As are all of your video's :)

just another day
The Sun reached out from 93 million miles away, pushed against the curtains in my bedroom until it found a small gap, and poked though it. As it moved across the sky, it crept silently down the wall behind me, then deliberately down the headboard until it landed on my forehead. Once there, it to...
I love making mini albums because they are so personalized and a blast to make. They can be somewhat fast and they're adorable. I've made just a few but hope to have a basket full soon :)

No, I'm afraid not. I would love the opportunity but where to start is a hard one. Oh, and 'what should I write about and why?' Definitely a scary thought, but it would be so nice to have the real me for my kids to see. That would make my life, literally.

Two spots up for grabs in my next workshop!
In just over a month, my brand-spankin' new workshop, Me: The Abridged Version, starts. Rather than wait until just before class starts to give away a few spots, I decided it was best to do it now, to give the winners time to do the pre-class work and brainstorming so they will feel ready to g...

I'm fine. Sore from working out and tired from cleaning and declutterizing our house. The de-cluttering is a all Summer long project that I've only seen a little progress from. It's well worth it but an every day battle, that makes me feel that I'm doing a good thing but sad that I can't get it done faster or better. August is what I've been waiting for though, a new bed and a truck that will take lots of stuff to the dump and lots of stuff will be gone. I can't wait for the feeling that comes with that :)

vBlog No. 76: Donna's new product line!
Hi everyone! In today's video, Donna shares her product line she is showing at CHA right now. At the end of the video, Johanna and I share projects we're teaching at Santa's Summer Splendor at the Red Bee, August 14-16.
If I ever got to go to CHA, I would definitely be one of the Tim Crazy fans. I already am one.
Thank you so much Tim for sending us to this blog, this paper line is amazing. I love the, well, earthness of it all. Mushrooms are adorable, birds too. I love the green with the wispy dandelions or flowers.
Just added Cosmo Cricket Blog to my Google Earth too.
Just love Cosmo Cricket. :)

I would love to have this machine. The amazing things you can do with it. I don't have a die cut machine, but if I could afford one the Silhouette would be the one to get.

Yesterday, I decided that I wanted to get back my creative mojo- and it seems to be a form of therapy for me- so I sat down, and finally downloaded a class that is in session right now. Lisa Day's "THe challenge of me". Often times, we scrapbookers don't include ourselves in pages- and tell our ...

Thank you for sharing your space. I can't wait to see how you organize. I'm in the middle of organizing myself (although I would never want to be done, I enjoy it as well), it definitely is not functioning well right now. I find myself checking in 2 or 3 places just to find what I want. Looking forward to your next post. Thanks again.
