There was a challenge during the CHA in Spirit day that got me thinking. I know, thinking is bad and it hurts your head. :) But here is what I came up with. It is a bit different, but so am I. lol. Journaling is under the photo. The letters are Heidi Swapp ghost letters traced in black. The stamps are Elsie Flannigan's (of course).




Went on a date with my hubby yesterday. He picked the St. Louis Arch, which was wonderful. I hadn't been there in a long time and neither had he. I wanted to share a few pictures I took while we were there.

Hey Everyone,
I played on 2Peas last night as they had a "party" CHA in Spirit Day. While a bunch of fellow Peas were up at CHA (Crafts and Hobby Association) Convention, we were scrappin away. I got some LOs done that have had the pictures just sitting here forever. And I got another Reed book done. I LOVE LOVE LOVE how this one turned out. I haven't decided if I want to make tags for it (I left little pockets on the side if I wanted to).

~Sunday Blog Challenge-2Peas~
Name one scrap item that you are dying to have. That would be the Wishblade. I will have it, one day. :)

2- Chocolate
3- A kiss from Reed
4- When Art calls me by a pet name
5- Learning a new technique successfully
Have a great day!

I have a few new things to share today. I finished up the clipboard that I was working on the other weekend and just finally got a picture of it. Also I did a layout last night for a challenge on 2Peas. They are working out of Ali Edwards' new pattern paper book. The first challenge was to dig in your stash and pull out 6 different patterned papers at random and 3 pictures. Cut them into squares and make a layout. I never realized how much I use stripes and circles in my stuff, lol.
TFL!

Went to For Keepsake yesterday. Got to take a class with Elsie Flannigan. I tell you what she is the sweetest thing!! This was the 2nd time I met her. We did the Hometown Mini-Album. Of course, I am still working on it, LOL. But I did want to share this picture of Elsie and I. I even won one of her prizes in her trivia contest!!

Happy Weekend Everyone! I have been busy as a bee this weekend. I have been debating on applying for a DT, so I have been working on some things this weekend and wanted to share. The altered letter is for a swap I joined. This has been SOOO much fun. I love how this letter turned out. I'm loving Color Me Silly by Basic Grey.
Then the lunch box (Basic grey) with Heidi Grace papers and stickers. It is so cute.
I am working on a clipboard with the Color Me Silly papers, also.
Lots of stuff going on. Made it over to the progressive sale at For Keepsake, bought lots of good stuff for 60% off AND signed up for Elsie Flannigan's Hometown Class!!!! I can't believe there was still space available. They said there are openings in all of the classes. I found that so hard to believe. Elsie is the BOMB! I met her at CKC and got to talk to her a little bit. Glad she will be teaching her own stuff this time.
