A Victoria Case Sneak Peek



Ok, so it isn't really a peek.. it is the whole card, I couldn't help it.. I LOVE HER!!!! You see, my other passion is cooking. I have a dream of being a personal chef one day... when we leave Alaska. So this lil darling holds a special place in my heart. Thanks, Vic... she's fabulous!!!


It doesn't show too well in these photos, but her hat and her bowl are popped out on pop dots. The card has some dimension to it.

Today is a busy day! We are getting ready for National Scrapbook Day at the store and have a lot of new stuff to put out. I have make and takes to prepare and some signs to make. I'm just glad my lil one is feeling better finally. She's back to her sassy lil self. I have a list of challenges to complete that is a mile long.. it seems. But I love doing them. Sometimes I get 'stuck' and can always find a challenge of some sort to boost my creativity. And plus.. ya can win stuff. :)

Any plans for the weekend? Anyone participating in National Scrapbook Day?

Modern Sugar Blvd. - Vacuum Gal

She was fun to do. I added some flock to her slippers... I mean, who hasn't at one time owned a pair of fuzzy slippers???


I also added some shimmerz to the vacuum. The flowers are from Close to My Heart and the pearls are from Kaisercraft. The ribbon is some I picked up at Michaels a few months ago. The sentiment is from Hanna Stamps, I thought it was appropriate, and it is my motto! *grin*
