Crop Weekend

I participated in a crop at Serindipity Scrapbooks over the weekend it had a Project Runway theme and was a ton of fun! I got a bunch of LO's done, some cards (5), a cute little mini album, and I even altered a jar. The women who hang out on the forum over there are very talented and inspiring. Their crops are always a bunch of fun and the Blue Light Specials in the store are awesome deals. http://www.serendipityscrapbooks.com/ that's the link if you want to check it out.
This card was a timed challenge, you needed 10 buttons on you card in a row.

Another LO from the Serendipity Crop.

Pages from my coffee coozy mini album I made for the crop.

This mini above, was a timed challenge you needed to alter 4 coffee coozies and upload your pictures in 3 hours. I made a cute little mini about my favorite Christmas time things.

Lots of fun challenges, I got a lot done!

This LO above was a challenge you needed to hand stitch 6 pieces of material and 6 buttons.

This jar was a fun challenge it now holds my buttons.

These cards were from a timed challenge you had to make 4 cards based off a sketch.

Milestones.

Last night at the gym was weigh in day. I have been working very hard these past few weeks(even with a nasty cold) and its finally paying off. I marked a major milestone yesterday. I'm now down 51 pounds. I feel much better, I eat much healthier, and I'm actually considering doing a triathlon. If anyone would have asked me last September (2008) if I thought I could do a triathlon, I might have laughed. I have upped the swimming to 4-5 days a week and continue with my gym workouts 5 days a week. My entire gym class got to do 51 burpees yesterday all thanks to me!

Sick

I have had a nasty cold since Thursday sore throat and a cough. So I have been at home doing some scrapbooking and working on some swaps I'm participating in at http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/ I had this really cute new Christmas paper from Basic Grey I have been wanting to use and finally got a chance to.

The recipe cards above I made for a breakfast food swap at 2 peas.

These are pictures from cookie making this year. I really like these papers from Basic Grey.

Some Lollipop flowers for a swap I did a whole bunch of these, they were fun to make.

New Year New Phone

I'm sure I'm probably not supposed to use this photo I stold from Apple's website, but I just got an iPhone and I love it! You can do pretty much anything with it. I figured I was worth the extra $20 a month, LOL! I also got a new desk for my craft room and I hope to post some good pictures of it soon. Happy New Year everyone, I hope 2010 is a good one.
