I know you are probably sick of me when I talk about losing weight, heck I'm sick of me saying it. But today I started a diet, is it a diet if it is not on a plan? How about I started eating better/smarter/healthier. I was going to join Weight Watchers but Jeff wants me to try to lose weight on my own…well not on my own, MAMMa, Rhonda, Mel and I are going to support each other while we try to lose weight. Jeff printed up a piece of paper that said the cost of losing weight and then it was all the different plans, gotta love google eh? So I need to be serious about it before I pay any money, so today I did really good I ate sensible. Vegetables and fruit a bit of meat at supper, and even though it is only one day, I did feel better and not so bloated and well crappy.
I wanted to show you some of the loot I brought back from Leadership and Regionals. Stampin' Up! sure knows how to spoil us.
Our awesome tote, and matching notebook/nook holder, and all the stamp sets, DSP, accessories etc.
Look how cute it is, and even signed by Shelli, she had to have had carpal tunnel after signing all of those.
It opens up and has lots of room. This is new fabric probably from the new catalog.
Look how cute it is with my Nook and a notepad in it.
This little flap opens up and there is a little pocket there for pens, or kleenex or whatever.
I had already shown you the tote but did you see this? Its an adorable flower that has a button hole in the center and it just goes over the button…genius! And who is the genius that made it?
My friend Melanie Hopes is the genius and she is the one that designed the totes too. She is amazing.
Look at this beautiful quilt she made using the new Dresden Designs die that is in the new mini catalog. She also stamps up a storm and her card was actually chosen as one of the winners of the contest that SU! had. Check out this beauty.
Opening it up to show off the flap.
Open all the way. No wonder she won eh?
It was great hanging out and visiting with you Melanie, can't wait to see you at Convention!
So after I got home and uploaded my pictures, I was like what the heck? My hair looked like crap, I am growing it out and at home in AZ it looks fine. Add the humidity of San Antonio and the fact the bathroom in the hotel had no fan or ventilation, and it was horrible there. Like didn't I look in the mirror? OMG!
Well I better get to bed it is after midnite, I have been working on Stamp Club cards and the time got away from me.
Have an awesome Wednesday and thanks for stopping in.
Di, your hair looks fine, you are beautiful and fat??? Where??? Just start eating better, you will be fine…
Hey! I know Melanie!! That's awesome!
i met Melanie years ago at an SU convention (back when i was a demo). I was invited by a mutual friend to be a part of their yahoo group and then we all hung out at the convention. I miss those days. I haven't participated in that group in quite a while, but I will have to contact her. Thanks for always sharing your stuff!
P.S. Good luck with the weight loss!I've never had much luck on my own, but Weight Watchers has been good for me. Doing it AGAIN and down 22 pounds so far!
It doesn't surprise that you know the person that designed the totes…… seems you know everyone! ha ha It was good to see you as always. Keep smiling!

Is the fabric that is used on the bag and notebook holder currently available? If so, what is it called? I can't find it in any of the catalogs:( I LOVE IT!!!!!
