Just in the knick of time I finished my LO for the ugly paper challenge I participate in every month.
Once I recieved my late papers I knew they were perfect for Pat's birthday celebration. His birthday this year was a special one and everyone was happy that he was here to celebrate.
Good food at Lonestar surrounded by friends. The next day we went to Hollywood Blvd. and saw Safe House.

Getting ready for my 1st Wedding Expo!
I truly LOVE everything about weddings-love, families coming together, the planning, the details and how it all comes together in the end. Taking an idea and making it a reality is what fuels my creativity. After much thought and some persuasion from supportive friends and husband I finally decided to take the plunge and do my first local wedding expo (in Watseka, IL) showcasing my wedding invitations, stationary and scrapbooks. Application is filled out, payment ready and all mailed out to the event organizer.
I couldn't be more excited to start this new chapter in my business endeavours. I have done well with word of mouth and craft shows. I am looking forward to see what happens with this new adventure and what path it will lead me down.
In the mean time, I have about 2 weeks to get my display organized and ready for the big reveal. As well as making up some last minute touches to add to my 8'x8' booth space including a backdrop, table covers, banners and invitation displays.
April 15th will come up quick, I have to be ready!! Be on the lookout for booth pictures and a follow up review blog of the event here :)

Ugly Paper Challenge-March
Tuesday, March 20, 2012
Spring has sprung!
I couldn't be happier for the "Texas" like weather we have been having. A mild winter then straight to late spring early summer temps-this is unheard of for Illinois!
Enjoyed some geocaching and sun around the neighborhood this past weekend.
Grilling outside is one of my favorite things to do-this was our dinner tonight: Grilled porkchops, green beans sauteed with bacon and baby yellow potato with sour cream and black pepper.
Looking forward to more days like these :)

Scrappy Inspiration
I love trying new ideas out when it come to scrapbooking and I find that sketches are a great way to get inspired. Here is the latest sketch created by Bev Code for Let's Get Sketchy.
I missed out on the 1st challenge but I hope to get to scrap something with this by friday.

Running around...
Hoping to get back to posting on here soon (like this weekend) when I get some free time. Been busy with work, side invitation orders, and driving Pat to the hospital and Dr. follow ups.
