BIC 22!

Wowza, can you believe it's Tuesday already! I am so excited to be trudging through this week! I have stuff this week! Oh, I cannot tell you! It will be a wild ride for me this week! I just keep crossing stuff off of my list...that seems to help me get through it!



So enough of me and my issues! ;) How about a super COOL inspiration piece from Beate (It's BIC 22)! This weeks piece is truly the coolest piece ever! Here's the piece from a Martha Stewart ad...


Isn't this the calmest, coolest piece! It just seems so serene to me. I LOVE the cool blues with the splash of brown and green. ....All the colors I chose to pick up for my sample. I used Stampin' Up!'s Eastern Blooms for this one because well, it's sitting on my desk completely uninked and because it seemed to fit. Here's my card....

Two things! First, I picked up a couple of OTT lamps at Joanns yesterday. I was hearing some really great things about them and since I had a couple of 40% off coupons I couldn't pass them up! But that leads me to the second!...I am obviously tweaking the photos again! Sorry if it's to muddy. I always ask my sister but she was out at the time I was scheduling the post. I will check with her tomorrow...or today for all of the people that are actually reading this! :)

Ok...enough of my ramble! Be sure and check out the rest of Beate's team....

...now I am off to hopefully get a walk in. I really need to start exercising again! I still have yet to make that part of my daily routine. With all of the junk I am eating lately I better get busy! I so love the sweets!

Hope you are all having a wonderful morning and I will post you all soon!

....special thanks to Lisa! She came by and gave me a few pointers on my new lights. This is actually a picture she took while testing it out. She ROCKS! :)
