Oh My Gosh!

I just had to share this...way too funny!

I'm in-love...

with Keith Urban. Me and my sister didn't get home until a little after midnight from the concert, and we both have to go to work this morning...I'm exhausted and I bet she is too. My head has been pounding from screaming last night and my throat hurts but it's so worth it. He put on a great show and I'll definitely see him again.

Here are some pictures that I took last night, I have a lot more but I don't think I should post it here...LOL! Are you ready....

Here's Keith singing to me but my sister insists that he's singing to her

(yes, she's now a Keith Urban fan)

I just love this pic, love watching him play
A little closer to me...but, not close enough Keith playing piano... to ME!
(insert me... screaming here)
oh yeah, baby!

more of Keith
The band Singing "Everybody"
Love this shot
Keith and Carrie

Thanks again for coming with me, Pen. I had a great time, love you! I have some Whipper Snapper cards for tomorrow, so make sure to come back.

Monday Funnies!

My sister emailed this to me today and thought of sharing it here =)

I THINK YOU'RE THE FATHER OF ONE OF MY KIDS...

A guy goes to the supermarket and notices an attractive woman waving at him. She says hello. He's rather taken back because he can't place where he knows her from. So he says, "Do you know me?"To which she replies, "I think you're the father of one of my kids."Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife and says, "My God, are you the stripper from my bachelor party that I made love to on the pool table with all my buddies watching while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery???"She looks into his eyes and says calmly, "No, I'm your son's teacher."

Happy Monday!

Happy New Year!

Do you ever ask yourself why did I get out of bed today?

Is this all there is to life? And where the hack I left my car keys?

Don't despair; it's not too late to turn your life around! Well, unless you are really old (like 30); in that case I suggest alcohol. If you are still a useful member society (under 30), I gathered some life tips that without a doubt change your life in such a deep and profound way, you won't even notice!

So with all that said and done, now it's time to seat down, lean back, open your mind, scratch your tummy, cluck like a chicken and read this pearls of wisdom:

1. Every morning smile to your mirror, but why stop there? Smile to your kitchen table, to your living room sofa and to your iron board. Beware, don't smile to your dishwasher it may take it as provocation.

2. Always put your smile on. People will assume you are a crazy person and won't mess with you.

3. Be kind to others, send me money.

4. Live every day like it is your last.Crawl into a corner and cry.

5. Live every day to the fullest. When going to the bathroom take a newspaper!

6. Drinking is not a solution, unless we are talking about alcohol.

7. Better to give, than to receive (true only on case of infections).

8. Clothes don't make the man, but being naked will get you arrested.

9. Don't put all your eggs in one basket, put all of then in the fridge they will last longer.

10. Remember everybody makes mistakes, and you will have the opportunity to laugh on them.

11. Always follow your dreams; just be sure to check that Pamela Anderson is also on board.

12. Give a man a fish and he might take it the wrong way...

13. Honesty is the best policy, at least that what Pamela always telling me.

14. Time is money.
Stop reading stupid articles!

I'm still stuck on Kristina Werner aka StarofMay. So, I cased another card of her for this week featured stamper.

I cased this card and again just changed the color combination and stamp set. The cute cupcake mouse is by Whipper Snapper Design. The whole image is cut out (which i don't recommend with his tail and whiskers , but oh he look so darn cute) and raised with a stampin' dimentional, his hat is cut out for the second time, the icing of the cupcake is covered with Liquid Appliqué and sprinkled it with real purple sprinkles, his nose is also covered with crystal effects. Happy Birthday sentiment is from Unfrogettable by Stampin' Up. Base of the card is stamp with Background Basic from Stampin' Up with Versamark. The patterned paper is from Magnolia Collection by My Minds Eye and tied a brown satin ribbon.

I was glad I didn't have my top off (I'm talking about the top of my jeep).

Hope you all have a nice and cool evening!

Welcome!

I'm new at blogging! So bear with me!!

Just a little about me....
I'm 34 years old, with a 7 year old daughter and works full-time.

I've tried all the hobbies in the world, name it... I've done it. So, over 2 years ago when I saw a homemade card, I thought to myself I can do this, attended my first class and a few months after that, I became a Stampin' Up hobby demonstrator. A hobby demo, you may ask? It means I don't have the guts to stand in front of everyone and show anyone how I do it. So instead, I create cards for my friends and family.

I should add, love, love, love being a Stampin' Up hobby demonstrator. My pocket book doesn't love it but what the heck! =) I'll be sharing my work here so stop by once in awhile.

I'm at work right now (supposedly working)....ssshhhhh! Till then and I'll stop pretending to be working. See yah and Happy Hump Day!
