Another One?

3-D Items

25 Jan

OK, don't hate me but… I don't know about you, but I am getting a little tired of seeing Bradley Cooper in every other movie that is coming out. I was watching American Idol the other night and a preview for the movie Valentine's Day came on and not only is Taylor Swift in the movie…ugh, and Jessica Alba, something about her I just don't like, but Bradley Cooper is in it too.  I mean, my gosh what does this guy do, read scripts while he whitens his teeth, cause don't you think his mouth is too big for his face?  Anyway, I just had to throw that out there.  Talk amongst yourselves…ha!

So today was fun and I got to meet Debbie and her hubby Steve, and their two dogs, they came all the way from PA, and she is a customer of my BFF Tracy's but they are here for a month or so, and she came to class, so what a blast and the guys gabbed together too.  Debbie was teasing saying that her hubby found a new best friend. I said he would have to share him with Jim and Tracy's Steve.

Debbie & Di

Here is Debbie and I, and she is such a super lady, we had a great visit. They have the New York-ish accent, and it was funny we were talking about turtles, and that you have to be careful when they are babies cause the hawks carry them away and Debbie says "what?" and I said "a hawk", and she was like "a howrk, like the bird?" (I am trying to spell it like she said it, and I totally can't – I mean I am sitting at my computer right now trying to say it and figure out where the letter should go to  make the right sound…I give up!!), and I said yeah, and she was laughing at how I said, it, and I said "well it is spelled HAWK, and not HOWRK", we had to all laugh at that.  It makes no sense at all spelled out, but if you know anyone with a New York or New Jersey accent you know what I mean. It was a fun time.

Steve & Jeff
Here are the men, they chatted it up and even played some horse shoes, they might come back on their way back home and set the trailer up, and play in the next tournament.  Too funny, Jeff is wishing they did not say Annual Tombstone Horseshoe Tournament, cause they want to do it again. So they are trying to come up with other names…ha!

So last night I played with my Simply Adorned jewelry and these are what I did.  I have more charms on the way, and they should have been here Friday but with the rain, UPS said they would not deliver till Monday…so either they were smart and did not attempt to make deliveries or they were stuck somewhere.

Simply adorned raccoon
Here is the front of the necklace, see how it is beveled? I had my Love Bandit stamp set out and with Valentines Day around the corner I thought it would be fun, then I did a different one for the back.

Simply adorned squirrel
Here is that cute squirrel from the same set. So fun!

Then I did some of the little charms that go on the bracelet, these make you think cause they are so tiny, I used my Tiny Tag, and Teeny Tiny Wishes set to decorate these little gems.

Simply adorned bracelet 1
Here is one side.  I think I want to put a "D" over the crown but I have not found the "D" I want to use yet. Then I added sweet over top of the flowers.

Simply adorned bracelet 2
Here is the other side, my love with the heart, and then I added fancy (this is from the Love Bandit set) over top of some other flowers. 

So Julie (hey girlfriend!!!) came to class today and brought me the coolest thing, wanna see a sneak peek? Cause I will show you tomorrow, a hint is…I jumped up and down and might have screamed when she gave it to me. 

Sneak peek
What do you think it is?

Have a super Monday and thanks for stopping in!

    Love the charms. My wish list just got longer.

    You can have a Valentine's Day tournament, a St. Patrick's Day tournament, an Easter tournament, a Mother's Day tournament, a Father's Day tournament,…. I am sure you can find a day in each month for a tournament.

Hi, my name is Diana Gibbs and I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator since 1999. I never imagined getting up and talking to people, I am deaf (I wear hearing aids) so talking to strangers has never been a fun thing for me. But put a rubber stamp in my hand and I will talk to anyone.

I hope you can find inspiration and learn new and exciting things while you are here. If there is ever anything you want me to teach you, just let me know!
