Me Tidbits...


  • My name is Diana Gibbs, and I am a Wife, a Mum, and a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I have been a Demonstrator for 13 years and I live in Arizona with Jeff my Hubby of 27 years, our 23 year old son Eric, our 4 year old Yorkie-Poo Toby, and our five chickens, Stella, Alice, Clara, Gertie and Fiji. I am a 2009 Stampin' Up! Artisan Award winner, #40 Demonstrator of the Year for 2010 and #30 for 2011. I am having so much fun, I love my job!

Movies I Recommend

  • "Death at a Funeral"
    Make sure you get the original 2007 British version. So many funny moments, I love swearing in a British accent. Oh and Uncle Alfie on the crapper..."it's touch and go" and "you missed a bit" - Classic
  • "Barefoot in the Park"
    This is so funny, Jane Fonda's Mum and all the stairs is hilarious and when she gets drunk....ya gotta watch it!
  • "The Butterfly Effect"
    Make sure to watch BOTH versions, the theatrical and the director's cut...let me know which one YOU liked best!
  • "Mr. Holland's Opus"
    I love Richard Dreyfuss, since Jaws and this movie is so uplifting and beautiful.
  • "Serendipity"
    I think this is one of my favorite movies of all time...well at least the one with NO vampires in it...ha! I believe in fate...do you?

I'm a Twilight Freak...are You?

This card is super cute!! And this is why I don't unsubscribe. I thought your post was interesing the other day and it does have to make you wonder why people decide to unsubscribe. Some days I want to read about chickens and take a break from my everyday world so I keep reading. Some days I don't have time for chickens so I just move on. If I just don't have the time that day I can just move on that day, but I wouldn't unsubscribe because then I would miss a card like this on a day I did have time or on a day that I really didn't have the time but looking at it and loving it just made me find a minute of me time that I probably really needed to take. You can't please them all so I guess a variety is the way to go. You do a great job on your blog and your projects.

Cute card. Yeah been wondering and wondering who took the box. Maybe the real Emily or Nolan in case they need to use something against her????? Can't wait for next weeks show. Hope Dad Dodds is doing okay. Karen

Love this cute card! So perfect for someone I know going through a rough time right now!

Di, I am glad that you Dad Dodds is doing so well!

I love this cute doggie card and I know your class will love it.

I did not watch AI as I was busy doing some preparing for my stamp camp tonight and Saturday.

I did watch Revenge and it was a good one. I wonder who took her box and how they knew about it. Do you think it was the girl playing Amanda? Next week, might be the season finale. I bet it does leave us hanging as that is the way the producers do to make you wait unitl the next season :)

Have a wonderful day!

This card is so cute..I love the sentiment. :)

Oh my gosh I went to see the lambs last night - they are running around everywhere.
I am gonna go in and see Granny tonight - join her for the hymn sing! Jade went to see her yesterday and she thought she looked good.
Dad Dodds called as well, but we weren't home so he talked to Jade. I'm glad he is doing well
Luv ya
Jax

Some Kind Words


  • "Thanks for the video. Have been wanting to do this and once again...you have inspired me. :)" - Gladys

  • "Thank you so very much for continuing to show samples and "how to" instructions and videos of your fantastic and creative projects. I can't even express how much it is appreciated." - Kim

  • "You totally crack me up girl. I love you, and we have never met." - Wilma

  • "If I wasn't a demonstrator already, I'd be joining your team. :) Thanks for always sharing your ideas and excitement for SU! My upline quit several years ago, so I've been blessed to have sideline sisters that help and encourage. Convention was a blast... like a bunch of crazy family getting together for a reunion! now I'm going to "go, go, go"... LOL" - Shelly

  • "I highly recommend this tutorial. I have dabbled with water coloring and didn't think I was too bad at it, but this tutorial has a number of helpful tips in it that immediately helped improve my technique. Even with the low price, I was apprehensive to purchase it because I felt a video was needed. You have managed to do it with a very reasonably-priced PDF. I am sorry I didn't purchase it sooner." - Dorrie
