enJOY it

an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.

Back
Oh, what a busy ten days. I saw how USC's campus has changed, how Alpha Phi has remodeled, how my college friends live (& play). I saw where Paul is living. I learned what life "on base" is like. I visited an old friend from high school who is now living in San Diego. I got a literal taste of my possible new city. I visited Berkeley. Saw all of Paul's friends & watched USC win a big game. Busy, busy and it is nice to be back and get resettled.

I am spending another two weeks in Sacramento with my parents and will then head back to Maryland for the rest of October. Paul will join me at home on Halloween and then we'll spend six weeks together with a normal routine at our normal house. I hate to wish away an entire month, but I am so looking forward to November.

Today it feels like fall. Sweater & hot coffee weather. I have big plans for the blog this week, so keep an eye out for:

  • a "how to get your handwriting on photos using photoshop elements" tutorial
  • a Wedding Wednesday post
  • a post about paper

Fallsale
I have also decided to run a big FALL SALE in my etsy shop. Reduced prices will be posted tomorrow at 1pm PST (4pm EST). Look for lowered prices on prints, postcards, kits and mixed paper books. I will also still be shipping FREE folded map books with all orders over $20. It's time to clear out the shop and start making room for new ideas and new adventures. Is there anything you would like to see in the shop?

Have a great week. It's Monday. It's October. It's feeling like fall.

PS : fonts used in "fall sale" graphic are howdown, honey script & garamond.

    Wooot woot Honey Script! I heart that font. 🙂 Happy you’ve had such a lovely “Fall Vacation.” How are your plants faring without you back home?
    I was just in sac town last week. It was lovely and fall-y there. There aren’t many trees that lose their leaves here in the bay area. I forgot how much I missed that. Enjoy your family visit!

    Sounds like you had a nice time! I have to say I am really looking forward to the PSE tutorial. I just bought PSE 7 a few months ago and can only do the most basic things. Have you ever considered doing a whole workshop on Elements? Like, stuff related to scrapbooking, photos, and the cool banners you make too. I would be so happy if you did! 🙂
    Excited for all your great stuff this week! Thanks for sharing!
