Mini Blog candy give away!

Hello my friends!

Today’s post is to let you know that from February 1 until February 14 you will have a chance to win this small bag of goodies from me. In the bag are scraps from some previous video tutorials, paper packs include DCWV and Paper Pantry. There are four clear stamps from Pink Gem designs. There are also a couple of cards from my digital design work for you to enjoy!

As we travel along these 14 days, I want to let you know that once I reach 100 subscriptions on my YouTube channel (Iwannastamp) I will be giving away some additional things including some TIM HOLTZ stamp sets.

I hope to be crafting more in the coming weeks.

In the NEWS! Starting on February 1, I start my new weight loss and exercise program. I have already begun to evaluate my current eating and exercise, but found that eating a snack cake and climbing stairs to get another soda just doesn’t count.

Follow along on my journey. I will actually post my current weight (you’ll be as shocked as was I) and my goals. Journey along with me and I hope you will join in on the fun.

To enter the give away, please leave a comment here ANYWHERE on my blog and on ANY of my YouTube video’s and your name will be put in a hat. AN ADDITIONAL INCENTIVE, put my blinky on your side bar and advertise my blog candy and you get put in Five times (one for the initial post and five for the blinky).

Charmed I’ sure Your paper pantry

Hi friends!

Today’s project is a swap over on Yourpaperpantry.ning.com. It is a $12.00 a year membership fee and well worth every dime. I have only been a member a bit over a month now and loving every minute.

Everyone is so kind, lots of fun swaps, video’s and ideas!

I just finished ordering some new AccuCut dies. The dies are compatible with my Big Shot pro from sizzix.

I will start selling kits and album kits soon, so be watching for that!

Have a great Sunday, Stamp Happy be a blessing!

The sheer joy of a properlly running computer & Pictures of altered projects!

Hello everyone!

As I sit and type today’s blog post, I am ever reminded of how utterly dependent I personally am on my electronic devises.

I love my Kindle, Ipod, Droid and Sony Vaio, my Terabyte backup drive and even my space heater. How I would go crazy waiting for paint to dry if I didn’t have a heat gun, I’d be blind if it where not for modern glasses, lightening and even the ability to change the size of the font.

I can quickly find information I want (and some I don’t) by just a few “key” words and a searh, I can learn about everything from biology to the latest craft phase.

After more than a week living with very limited abilities to use my computer, I am humbled and even thankful that I live in an age of technology.

Ok, after all that stuff, I’d like to tell you about the pictures at the top of today’s post,

The first three pictures are of the altered coasters (from Stamponthis.com). The calendar was purchased from vippies.com and I just love how this one came together. It is for my Sr. Angel, Ms.Vivian.

The Thankyou card is for a swap hosted by a friend and I used stick pins in the cards as decorations. I am really loving making the stick pins, they are so fun and are coming out well.

I hope you all hae a great weekend, stamp happy and be a blessing.

Hugs,

Loretta R.

Happy Anniversary

Hello My crafty Friends! Just an update to let you all know I should be able to resume a normal blog schedule next week. My laptop computer monitor went all pixels on me about a week ago, I was able to use my youngest son’s computer that was like 8 years old, then it died. I’ve heard it said that bad news and bad things travel in threes. It looks like my life is no exception. After speaking with a dear family friend, we know that our family will soon grieve a loss of a dear Father and Husband. My Digital Delights video/tutorial for Saturday has been graciously covered for me considering these unusual circumstances, and I am grateful for that. Other designer news, My post and tutorial for Suqigglefly will be shot and posted sometime in the next few days. Please hang in there with me as I iron out the quirks of a new computer while having the old one fixed and transitioned to the teen kid. Have a great night, Happy 10th Anniversary to Mike and Loretta Rodger! Hugs,

Loretta (proud to be Mrs. Rodger)

The paper used on this project was from a DCWV paper stack, I sanded and sponged the edges. The sizzix die is a retired ‘bird with vine’ I purchased several years ago. These projects are actually the first time I have used the die. Goes to show you should check your stach before heading off to go shopping.

Tim Holtz has some new dies I am looking forward to purchasing and using in my projects.

Stamp Happy, be a blessing!

Loretta R.
