{ Snow and Cold make Tracy a very unhappy girl! }

Sorry for being MIA for so long. I have just been feeling no Mojo and no desire to post lately. Almost feeling like taking a break from bloggin' for awhile, but I think I will hold out until summer and then maybe take a break for the summer. No worries...I just might not post on a regular basis...not like I am right now anyway...ha! I have also, been busy reading lately too. I just finished rereading the Twilight Series for the 3 or 4th time in the past 8 months...it has me in the mood for more reading. And what perfect timing! Maria has started up a Book Club online... The Cafe Corner Book Club Come check out the blog and if you are up for it why not join us? Our first book is... The Host!


Did you notice that I finally posted my own Challenge cards on the post at the top? I finished them last weekend, just had not gotten around to actually taking photos and downloading them! I am actually happy with them. They did not turn out like I had envisioned this challenge to be, but I am very happy with the result. As you can see I used my Cricut again. :0)



Well, it is snowing yet again!!! When is spring ever going to arrive?! I am so sick of this weather. Oh well, what can we do...aside from complain!



I will leave you with a new creation...




This is the first card of 5 that I did all using the same sketch. I decided that since I had all 5 of these Wild Things images colored, I would use the same sketch on all of them. I can't remember the sketch exactly, but I believe this one was inspired by a SCS sketch. I was quite happy with the way this one turned out!

On a side note...we took our girls to go and see the Hannah Montana movie yesterday. Both hubby and I REALLY enjoyed it! I was actually shocked at how much I liked it. Yes, there were a few stupid...only kids would love it...scenes, but only a couple. And of course we had to download the soundtrack when we got home. I must admit the 'Hannah Montana' music is okay, but I really do enjoy the 'Miley Cyrus' stuff. Especially the song 'The Climb'. She sang it last week on Idol. I was not thrilled with her live performance, but hearing the song in the movie? Well, it is actually a very beautiful song. Check it out!


Well, thanks for droppin' in and I will try and post a bit more often...I have lots finally downloaded onto the computer now to share!

Hey Tracy!! Thanks for the shout out on the book club! I hope it'll work out and we'll have fun. Wow, you read the Twilight books for that many times! LOL! That's pretty good.

I'm half way done with the Host. .. I'm actually diggin' it. The first few chapthers I feeling a little blah about it but afterwards, it gets really good. . .well, my opinion!

I recently bought that cute Wild Things stamp set. Your card turned out fantastic! Beautiful job on your coloring and I really love the pretty colors.

As for posting or blogging. . .I think you should blog when you feel like it. . .take a break and come back. Blogging should be for your pleasure!! I'll still stop by and see what you're up to!!
