Today I worked on Stamp Club projects so I can get all that done for pick up next weekend, and so I can get the long distance club members stuff in the mail Monday.  Next week is going to be nuts getting ready for our trip.  Hair cut, color, mani, pedi (gotta look good for Mickey), shopping, packing, thank goodness Jeff's brother is coming to stay at the house with Toby and the girls as that will be one less thing I need to think about.

Today's card is the Wow card from class. It was tweaked from a swap I got from MAMMa, (thanks MAMMa!)  Added since original post: OMG! I just turned the card I copied over and it was made by my sweet friend Lisa Hansen OMG! Lisa I am so sorry, I love it.

Well this old gal is gonna call it a night and finish up tomorrow.

Did you see it? I can't believe it! Finally 2 million hits! The ticker seemed to crawl near the end and then poof! I'll have some blog candy for you, but it will be after our Disneyworld trip ok?

Today's card is the Wow card of the card I showed yesterday.

Ink: Night of Navy, Pumpkin Pie

Paper: Night of Navy, Crumb Cake

Do you know what the retiring list means?  It means the new 2012-2013 Catalog is coming soon!  I can hardly wait to get my hands on it. I wonder if we will get it at Disneyworld like we did last year on the Alaska cruise? Of course if we do we can't show it. I'll be holed up in my room making my wish list, before I lock it up in the safe.  

 

How would you like to get your copy of the new catalog for free?

 

Here's a couple ways to do it.

 

1.) Join one of my stamp clubs (the next one starts in June)

 

OR

 

2.) Place an order of at least $60.00 (before tax and shipping) from April 16 - April 23.

This special is from me only, so you will need to place your order in my online store, or you can email it to me at [email protected].  But remember you only have until April 23 at midnight. I can only take orders that are delivered within the US, and that goes for the catalog too, thanks for understanding.

 

I have had several emails asking me if you could pre-order your catalog like you did last year.  And the answer is yes.  If you would like to pre-order a catalog let me know and I can send you a paypal invoice for the mailing cost.  Stampin' Up! will actually mail these for us this year. Catalogs can only be pre-ordered that will be shipped within the USA.

 

You can choose Standard mailing which will take longer to arrive and that is $5.00 or you can choose Premium mailing which will be a bit faster and that is $8.50. 

 

If you want to pick up your catalog please let me know so I can order enough catalogs for everyone.

 

Please let me know no later than April 27 if you would like to pre-order a catalog.

 

Your free or pre-ordered catalog will be mailed to you after May 7.

 

You can start ordering out of the new catalog June 1.

 

This old gal is signing off for tonight.  Have an awesome Saturday and thanks for stopping in.

 

 

2 Million Hits for Real

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ok, I am really bad at math...really bad, (my sweet friend Rhonda is nodding her head in agreement)...so like a year ago I thought I was almost at 2 million hits and even posted a post...but then after I was like oh wait I was looking at the number wrong...ooops!  But for real this time, I have had over 2 million hits!  I knew it was close, but was surprised (remember me and numbers?) when I looked today the number started with a 2.  Thanks to all my faithful readers that check in every day whether I am stamping, reading, ranting, raving, blabbering, cooking, cleaning, eating, playing, crying...whatever I am doing...you are the BEST!!

Should we have some sort of Blog Candy in celebration????

Mega hugs and love to all.

Today I will start out with the Now card, stir things up a bit.

Speaking of stirring things up a bit, if you didn't watch Idol don't read anymore.

I'll show the full card first and then get on to American Idol.

I got a swap card from Debi Ryan and I really liked it, I tweaked it a bit for class. (Thanks Debi)

Ok, here we go to Idol...

I am wondering if the judges wished they had of saved their save for this week.  I actually thought they would kick two people off this week cause of the save last week, but I think since that Gentle Giant guy was kicked off earlier cause of troubles with the law I think it allowed them not to have to do it and keep on schedule.

Kris Allen sang tonight, and I loved the shabby chic piano (Jeff even mentioned it) but thought it was weird that it was spinning so part of the time he was hidden behind the piano as he sang. He finally stood up and walked around.

They also had some horrible band on there LMFAO -QRSTUWXYZ or something like that, but it was like Sesame Street on drugs.  People dressed up as zebras, and boxes on their heads, crazy hair and clothes, the song was horrible, and parts had to be bleeped out.  I think that 7:00 is prime time so not sure this is appropriate. I still wonder who picks the entertainment, cause they need to be fired.

So Jimmy and the judges admitted that they have been picking the wrong songs for Jessica all this time, songs that are too old for her...have I not been saying boring for like...ever?  Hello! It's down to the Top 7 and you just now figured this out.  This also makes you realize that she needs to maybe get older where she knows what she wants to sing and can tell them (like Phillip does) that she will sing and dress how she wants.  

So it came down to bottom three were Elise, Hollie & Colton.  Elise was sent to the safe couch first (with another hug from Ryan...I swear there's something going on with those two), and then I thought it would be Hollie (although she did great last night), but surprise Colton goes home (last night was not his best night).  I am not too worried though, this means his record will come out quicker...ha! But boy did you see Hollie, she was taking it hard, and so was Phillip.  I think him and Colton were pretty good friends.

Who do you wish had of gone home?

Well this old gal is hitting the hay.

Have an awesome Friday and thanks for stopping in.
