So i slaked

I'm sorry I was working on my Cricut, working on about 3 projects at once, and then Chris came home and we decided to go do the "Architects Tour" at the Biltmore estate, since it was just way to pretty to be cooped up inside, and need less to say... That turned into all night event lol, we had a blast though, and  I have been to the Biltmore Estate several times heck I'm a season pass holder, but to truly understand the beauty you need to do the  "Architects Tour" (formally the Roof Top tour), but any who so I didn't get the projects finished :( but I will do so tonight at least one so I can show you, I have several coming up so soon in the mean time look how pretty:


This was on a balcony,
right under :)

This in hand done  on every other
square on the trim



Isn't that pretty the roof of
the north side of the home

This view is the reason
Vanderbilt bough the
land and decided to build a
home here



isn't the detail pretty

this is the view out of
the observatory, the
front lawn and the hill
past the ramp deuce,

This is from on top of the grand staircase,
near the attic







Now I love crafting but were those not so pretty,  any who when I get off today I have to go to the doctor  get my stitches out from surgery and then I am going home to complete at last one of those projects lol :) I cant wait hope you cant either

Exciting!!!

Ok so first i have a question, this morning, I get to work and decide since i have no pt that should be here till after 6 that I was gonna eat my half of a grapefruit i brought, Then I got to thinking, why do people eat grapefruit in halves, its not that big of a fruit and its good for you, then i started to slowly , very slowly start to eat this thing, and it dawned on me... they are just to much darn work by the time you get one half eaten you need  a nap to recuperate, lol They are too much work lol.

So anywho the whole reason I wanted to right today is because i am super excited that, I should be getting my new Cricut Cartriges toady! I cant wait, I got two on ebay for a steal and they are just the begging lol, I already ahve my first order! lol My friend from work Mylissa had a birthday this week and I wasnt to to happy with the card i made her, I just didnt have much to work with lol, but when i said that she said she loved and i could just make her a new one when i get my cartriges, and since ill have the house all to my self tomorrow (Chris is going on some Snap-on Tool Field trip thing) Im gonna sleep in and then break in the new cartriges, I have anothr project too but you will have to wait and see Monday what it is :) Any who I hope all of you have an awsome Friday and remember... TGIF!!! :)

So.... This is the plan

Hi everyone, who ever is out there, I know I'm starting this earlier than I had planned, however I really cant wait so, I'm going to do a little bit now, and  will just delay the official start of the challenge to the anticipated time, So as you can see on my blog one of my favorite blogs to follow belongs to  Robyn I love her video tutorials and how she just makes time to do what she loves. I had always talked about having a blog and watching hers and a few others I love the idea of committing myself to a challenge. But the Plan is probably around mid February  starting I wanna get my new desktop computer to put in my craft room which will make the process easier. So the Idea of this challenge is to make a new card every day for a year, it can be anything, a birthday card, a get well card, a holiday anything it just has to be different, I'm going to try to post pictures up to, cant promise if every one i will have pictures on that post however, there soon after I will have a picture up some where. Well be sure to check me out on my Facebook page. and I will be posting a link to my blog from there as well! Well I am going to try and post at least one post a day weather a card is made or not so keep a look out and don't forget to take a look at the blogs I follow i will try and post links on here of my favorite blogs. and keep an ear out for the official start of my 365 day Challenge :)
