Happy Friday!

So do you have any big plans this Memorial Day weekend???

Well - as for me... today I am heading off to pick up my ball dress and have it hemmed!!! (Got to LOVE David's Bridal - my dress actually got here a week earlier than they said it would!! Whoo Hooo!!!) Then I am off to lunch with my hubby at our favorite favorite Thai place - YUMMY! And then finally, I am taking him to see the new "Indiana Jones" Movie!!! He is just thrilled!

As for the rest of the weekend - hmmm - I just don't know! What I really would like to do is clean out our messy garage! You know like they do in that show "Clean Sweep". Make three piles - Keep, Toss, Sale! But I am not sure I am going to be able to talk the hubby into it. Thus more than likely we will head out on the jetski this weekend at some point!

For all of you that are going to spend the time off scrapping.... I am EXCITED to announce that the first set of my "Land of Enchantment and Magical Moments" files have hit the store!!!!! Yep - you can get them - like - RIGHT NOW!!!!

Here they are if you want to check them out....

Now don't forget there are some more coming... I have about 9 more that I want to finish up and I will try to get them completed and in the store sometime next week!

Well that's about it... I guess I better run and jump into the shower before hubby starts yelling "Waiting on One" (you just got to love living in an Army house!!!) Hope you all have a GREAT LONG WEEKEND!

Until Next Time!

Just got to love...

You know you just got to love the days where everything just comes together!!! As a designer I find most days when I am working I start on a project thinking it is going to go one way, it is going to look a certain way and then by the end it is TOTALLY different than I ever thought it was going to be....

But every now and then you get one of those days... you know one of those days where everything just comes together and the design you see in your mind is actually the design that comes out on the computer screen - and even better yet is the design you see all put together after you cut it!!!

Well I am happy to say - whoo hoooo today was one of those days!!!

See one of the corniest things that we did at Disney was the "Jungle Book Cruise". Now wait, wait, wait... don't get up in arms until you hear the WHOLE story! LOL I actually liked the ride itself and I took a ton of picture of the animals on the safari itself... but our boot Captain... yeah - his jokes were soooo lame - I was totally rolling my eyes by the end of the ride...

So I decided to design another file to go in with the "Land Of Enchantment" line... And I have to say everything just came together... I had a vision and I think for the first time in a long time... that vision actually showed up in my finished product!!!

Here's a sneak peak at that file.... I would love to hear what you think!!!

Until Next Time!
