Ok My last Spree for this month...

Or maybe even for the next 3 months hahahaha. I can't wait to start creating....
I went to my first day of orientation today but as I was turning into the street of the facility I get a phone call. " Hi Jackie! Where are you?" Yes I knew it.... Something was up and this is what my case manager said.... " The RCC called and said she can't orient you today..." Oh boy... hahahaha Thanks goodness my aunt, my mom, and the kids were headin' to the mall after they were supposed to drop me off. And so I said fine and dandy to the mishap and said SonJa's Scrapbooking spot here I come.... I felt my wallet shivering hahahahaha.

I spent $22 and I was super satisfied because she had a grand re-opening sale and it was 50% off on a whole lot of things.
Then I  get back to my moms  work and there were my HKs in the mailbox...

 

I got the Flourish from ebay. 

Aya!

Craft Spree Day 3

So heres Day 3... I think I'm gonna be super broke before the next payday hehahahahahaha..... Tryin' out  Marion's way of altering chip boards. I kinda have a similar way but I don't use UTEE  I just use the regular embossing powders and  I actually use water base inks. What I do is ink up the chip and immediately toss in the embossing powder, then heat set and voila! I love embossing and I love distressing everything hehehehe. And now I'm so in love with flourishes... Aya I tell you I'm gon' go broke by the end of the year... hahahahaha Hopefully NOT!

Craft Spree Day 2

Ok without any brake pads... my feet led me to TARGET... my fave place ever.... and here's what I ended up with.....

Though I got these from the dollar spot, still added to my crafting budget... which I think I already had gone over... cause the picture is actually triple it's amount only because I've given one of our patients at work some of the other things I bought... Ayah!.....

Craft Spree Day 1

Ok I started with Wal-mart.... The picture is not even the whole shabang I really bought. I have more Buttons than shown in the picture and I can't remember the rest cause I already put them away before I even had the chance to take a picture... I take pictures of my new craft items cause I wanna see later how much I've really spent on my addiction hahahahahah...But this time I think I went over my monthly fuel... heheheheh

Oh my SUNsation babe!

I haven't posted a Scrap page in awhile and I have been busy with them for the past weeks. I was so inspired by one of the new blogs I have been following lately I decided to make a page something like it. hehehe. Well she was actually hosting some kind of challenge kinda thing. Thought I'd try it out and here it is.... TADA!

I've done nothing but brighten it up with PS and I think I kinda went overboard.. ehehehe I vaguely remember the challenge but I remember if you can make a page with just the white CS and I think she added colors but forgot.... OMG I think I also forgot which blog Uh oh  I think the aging process has started this year.... hehehehe I will update this post after I go through my blog roll... I know which blog I'm exactly looking for just don't know where to look hehehe. Sorry artsie lady... But hey you've inspired me to make this lovely page.. hehehehe
Have a blessed sunday all....

I have made 3 different kinds of mini albums and I so can't wait to post them and two of them are actually goin' out as RAKs for the sistahs.... hehehhe hope they like it as much as I've enjoyed making them.

Anyhoots... Story of the day.... I missed work today. And why? you'll never guess.... I WOKE up late and being that I live 65 miles away from work there was no way hubs were goin' to take me and go to work... So there goes my 12hrs...

I love love this card. I thought the TSRD stamp set is just too cute.... It is from the Breakfast set from Two Scoops Rice Designs which I used to design for hehehehe. Our term just stopped but creations will still keep comin'.... So the CS and DPs were from my DT kit well everything actually on the card is from my kit. I think I used a sketch for this card. I think of of the past Monday MoJos.... AnywhooseRs....

So big changes in the TSRD spot... Our term has ended and there will a new DT call out sometime soon... Just don't know yet but the old designers still can try out and become one of FIVE DTs.. Anywhoots.... Here's a creation I wish to send out to a bloggin' sistah. I used the Musubi set from TSRD. My DPs are BGs Bittersweet and CS from Stampin' Up....

The musubis are actually single stamps and I just stamped close together to give that STICK to the creation. hehehehe. Isn't it a cute set... I hope the sistah likes! 
In other news I have been asked to start a new position in my job VERY VERY soon... like next month.. And I don't think I am really ready for it yet. I mean I still get to orient and all but I it's kinda uncomfortable when you're out of your house for 4-5 days in a week. So I've found a new place by work, just need to talk to hubs and apply soon!
I have 9 cards to make up for CSAYL... think I can make it... We'll see... tomorrow is my sunday and I have to go back to work on Thursday so we'll see if I have the time and speed to make 9 cards.. hehehehe
toodles all....

TGF Bad Bear DS

So I have been weirdified with a bunch of things lately and some things are just so hard to pretty much fix. I have just been letting things get to me more lately than usual. And it is totally giving me a major Migraine. AAAHhhhhh! not a good thing, I don't like and can't stand my migraines. Sometimes my Excedrine Tension H/A pill can't even relieve it. Anywhoosers... Nuff of bablin' just had to kinda release the gates of stress for a whee bit...
     I just wanted to share with you guys this lovely image I've purchased from the Greeting Farm called Bad bear from the House of Mental DS... ain't it cute. Since it was a digital stamp in order for me to gve it the embossed outlined look I used my Versamarker and then embossed it. I used the rest of my BG DPs bittersweet collections. My SU CS . I just hand wrote the sentiment of course it's kinda obvious and also embossed it afterwards. My gel pens are great with embossing. hehehehe...

Here's a small close up of the image... Excuse the poor quality of the picture... let's blame the camera or that k... hehehehe

You can kinda see the glittered scrub top that he's wearing....
Okie dokie.... hope everyone is havin' a blessed weekend....

Altered ATC Box and K.O.S. ATC for April...

Yowzers It's Friday AGAIN! my oh my the days just fly by like a fly hahahaha! just kidding... Really though the days seem to just pass by like there's a race for the future. Anywhoots hope all are havin' a blessed Friday and a wonderful weekend to come.. I'm working today and tomorrow so no crafting for me for 2 days in a row :o( But of course I had already had done some creations prior to work so I have somethng to post. hahaha I'm back to being an addicted blurfer hahaha is that a new word oh what.. I've blurfed around yesterday and boy am I acquiring Carpal tunnel syndrome. heheheeh. There so many great blogs out there and so many inspirations I might add.

            Oh yeah 2 of my fellow bloggin' sistahs are having a great and Jainormous blog candy giveaway make sure you all stop by and before you do go ahead and follow my blog while you're @ it hehehhee. Just go on the left side of the blog and then click on the pictures to go straight to their blog candies.... That's Gracie and Jodi.... Both are just great artsie inspirations and super creative sistahs...

Alright now for the PINK me UP creation......

The other day I decided to watch some craftee videos on YouTube and ran into Marion's a piece of craft videos. One of her videos showed how she made this really really cute Photo Box. She's so talented.. :-)
Anyway I wanted to make one just like it but a bigger one and sorta put the expandable part on the side. I decided to just make it into a box box... hehehe and I used a velcro as a fastener rather than her lovely magnet... hehehe So this ATC box was super inspired by Marion's Photo Box... Which is now an HK ATC Box. hehehehehe. TADA!

Those are all the ATCs I've gotten both from the A Piece of Craft ATC Club and Keep on Scrappin' ATC Club...

Now off to make another one for more ATC's to come. hehehehe

Oh wait I said I'll be posting my April ATC  here too hehehe sorry here I go..............

Be Inspired, Love Scrap, Live PINK!

Smooches,

For Marion's Brooke.... TSRD time!

So I have been on a roll with card making and just creating whatever I can with everything in the craft kloset... hehehehe literally craft kloset... I'll show my artsie space as soon as I have everything in place... what I mean is I'm still pretty much organizing and making everything ME! hehehe.  Ok so I have been on a roll and since Ms. busy mommy Marion just had her lovey girl Brooke... I decided to make her a card with TSRDs Garden fairy set. I just thought this image was perfect for welcoming a dear little one in this world. so here it is....

ThingaMaJigs:

• BG Bittersweet DP
• SU CS
• Robbin's nest Dew drops
• Studio G stamp set
• Two Scoops Rice Designs Fairy Garden image
• Flowers from Enjoli
• Target dollar spot ribbon...

I love how this card card came out... I just think it's super adorable. Anywhootsie here's the inside and a blurry close up of the image heheheehe. I just can't catch a good picture with my cheap-o old canon....

 

 I was tryin'  to show the glitter part of the image and I outlined the whole image with my versamarker then embossed it. Hope you all are havin' a great Thursday.... Tomorrow is a work day and the day after tomorrow and I'm actually kinda feelin' iffy since the old director is not there anymore. yikes! that only means BIG and MaNY changes in everything... Well change is sometimes good, I just hope it won't be too bad....  
Yokie Dokie Artichokeessss.....

PINK me UP shorteh! Pho Shizzle Pho Show!

hahahah the title of the post is funny... I added the Shorte for no reason... hehehehe. Oh yeah first I wanted to share this new restaurant find I ran into 2 weeks ago. Well more like passed by hahahaha. we were on our way to the shopping HAVEN of mine TARGET! heheheh and I look over to my right and BAM!

Oh my gudness... How cute is that.... Gosh if I was to start my own business I would make hip too. hehehe But then again I can totally go for "PINK me UP!" hehehehe And of course it would have to be a craft store... Ok goin' back to the PhoShow Restaurant... it is located in Culver City, California and it is a Vietnamese restaurant for all those who haven't tried PHO... Oh oh oh there's another restaurant I thought was too cute. A friend of mine sent it to me way back when the restaurant barely opened....

 

Aren't they super funny and cute names... heheheh Well I like them....

Ok so movin' on to the PINK me UP part of the post.....

Back in January Bona's ATC club theme was to make an ATC card with a specific letter in the words.. LIVE, LOVE, SCRAP.... associating with only 3 specific colors which were PINK, Black, and White... So here's how it looked before.... My card was is the V on LOVE... the other girls did a fab job didn't they..

Looks great doesn't it? But then though it had the color PINK in every letter, something was still missing... So I personalized it with my PINKee self.... VOILA!

Now it's PINKed UP and completely ME!

Here's a close up.

I used BG Bittersweet colletion I had left from V-day... hehehe

I think Imma add this on the blog...

K Hope everyone is havin' a PINKtastic day.....

I love this stamp so much cause it's so HUMONGUS... I love the size of it and I love the look when it's embossed. Anywhoots.... onto the card.
It's blank inside I couldn't find a good sentiment for it yet... I used my stickles for the crown and the star on the wand...

ThingaMaJigs:

• The Greeting Farm Princess Anya from Enjoli
  
• SU CS
• DCWV Glitter sweet stack
• Flowers from Enjoli
• Stickles from Enjoli

Just a card...

I  didn't have time to make any easter creations to send out...  I kinda feel bad so i hope I do better this Mother's day coming up... hehehe Hopefully  I can make it up hhehehe. Short post today cause I'm in the middle of making a whole bunch of cards to post this whole week. Also I really want to get back into following Maria's Christmas Stampin' All Year Long... I've missed way too many and I sure would love to have enough cards when the season comes.. :o)
So here's the card. No ThingaMaJigs for today.. I will try later on...
Thanks everyoe for always visiting my PINK artsie world....

oh yeah I used my PCS farm animals again from Little C's... I accidentally cut his tail off and I had to hide him behind them beads but when I took the picture I totally forgot about it hehehehe.....
Enjoy!
Happy Monday!!!!

JackieLou

A Simple one...

So I have struggled to find the MoJo back and this card is barely bringin' it back hehehe. I was in a rush to make a card since I have not posted any new creations lately... But the problem was I never got around to posting it anyway.  hehehe. I haven't been able to visit my fave blogs either... Hopefully after I finish my creations today I soon will have all day to Blurf!
Anywhoots.... today was a pretty sad at work.. our very much love leader is no longer in our team :o( so so sad cause though not a lot of people were doin' what she really wants them to do; everyone has been sticking around because of her. I think that politics in the nursing field will never cease. They always have to pop up somehow and in anyway they can. I just hope that after 10 yrs of having the same director of nursing people would realize what they should have done different. Also hope we'll have a good replacement for her... sorry had to kinda vent...

Onto my gettin' my MoJo back slowly but surely....

ThingaMaJigs:

• DCWV Glitter sweet stack 
• PCS Farm Animals (Little C's)
• My Cheap markers heheh
• Wal-mart buttons
• PINK stickles
• my glitter pens 

I used my glitter pen to color in the chefs hat and apron then embossed them.. I think she's a cute little duckling...

 XoXo,

Love you MUS!

Today is my Darling Hubzees birthday and this year I thought I'd try to send him something unexpectedly during work. hehehehe. Anywhoots. here's what I sent him. I was feelin' a bit shabby about not planning anything for his birthday and I remembered last year I didn't have a job and wanted to send him some flowers but of course didn't have enough money hehehehe. So this year I thought of sending him some blossoms again but took a different kind of blossoms... hhehehe Strawberry blossoms that is.... from Edible Arrangements....

Back when hubz and I started nursing school, he celebrated his 20th birthday that year and someone brought him a lovely fruit cake from somewhere like edible arrangements; with their cakes at least... called Portos (if you're from SoCal you know what I'm talkin' about) Anywhoots his cake that year had the most super FAT and Delicious Strawberries on them... when we all saw the cake, hubz and I said, "ooohhh Strawberries!" well at least that's what I remember... hehehe It's OUR favorite fruit...
So I thought of the Strawberry blossoms...hehehehehe here's a close up of the YUMMY arrangement...

.... and to top it off I added 2 balloons with Happy Birthday on it and another with I love you... hehehehehe.

Happy Birthday Babe!

One Card Swap from Sherri....

I love love this card I got from the One Card Swap for the month of March... I was paired up with Sherri my new island friend. I believe she said that she doesn't have a blog yet so I can't really lead you guys to any blogs to her creations. She said she's not really a stamper but has a lot of tools and loves to scrapbook... But from the look of her card, she looked experienced enough... hehehehe. Isn't it beautiful.... I love the whole card... Thanks Sherri... expect another card soon.... heheheheeh I mean from me to you... hehehehehe

My easter Kitty from Michelle

I've been so admiring the super cute HK easter die. I think it's just too darn adorable... the whole bunny costume is simply sayin' Hello K-easter... hehehehe. Anywhoots look what came in the mail today... Thanks dear sistah ... My island bloggin' sistahs are just so thoughtful... they're not only super creative but super nice too...

 I have been working like a KiTTy @ work for the past 2 days. I can't even believe how much writing I have done and today I think will be a record breaking for me. I think we're goin' to expect @ least 3+ admissions at work so I will have a whole lot of body assessments to get done... and you know what that means? A LOT OF PAPERS to fill out... heheheh well good luck to moi...

OH where ohwhere has my MoJo gon'......

Oh where oh where can you be... So last week I got my HK Biggie and couldn't wait to create with it. And wouldn't you know I sat in front of it for a LONG time after making my HK dies. I was blanked out after not creating everyday...  ehehehe. :-( I miss creating everyday and I started feeling lost after working a bit more. So though I will be posting this card here I just don't think it's pretty enough. I'm kinda keepin' it short cause I have to go to work soon...

I used a PCS sentiment from the farm animals set. I still love the DPs from Maria, Sweets DCWV.  Okie doks.... gotta go...
