enJOY it

This little beauty is my new favorite thing. Obviously it is going to turn my finger green. But I have prepared myself for that. Between that and the Stunna Shades, I felt like Flava Flav last night.

And a couple people had questions a few posts back. I could email you guys, but I feel like it is like in class where one person asks a question and other people benefit from the answer. Or maybe not. But anyways…

Hagit, thank you!  That layout on the right says "Sometimes you just gotta twirl." I need to work on my painting skills. And just in case, the journaling below reads, "Mom sent me a card with this written on it last semester when I wasn’t getting jobs. So damn true." Still, so damn true.

Jessie, you asked what scrapbook stores I visit. It seems like there are not a lot here.  Obviously, I have a love affair with Paper Source. And I have driven out to Scrapbook Oasis numerous times, even though it is in Irvine. Love that place. They always have new product. And I go to Michael’s every other week. Probably much more frequently now that they got all the new Martha Stewart stuff.

And Heather! That wood paper is from Michael’s. I think it was 30 cents. I love it too.

Ooooh, questions are fun!

And check this out. So cool.

Oh, and how about this?

Graduation is tomorrow. But I come from this magical place where people get dressed up the day before and take photos. Because we are cool like that.

Congrats to the Alpha Phi Senior Class of 2007.

Have you thrown your cap today?

    Thanks for the info! I do love me some Scrapbook Oasis (and some others in OC) but there is no way I will get down there regularly enough. sigh. I’ve got a hair cut in Redondo this weekend so maybe I’ll get to my old scrap stores as well! 🙂
