okay sisto, here we go!

1. my desk in my studio is perfectly clean right now.

2. i love it when my kitties jump on my lap when i'm sitting at my desk.

3. i love to go to the office supply store and get new 'stuff'.

4. i iron my clothes on the floor.

5. i sit on my bathroom counter to put my make-up on.

6. i seriously would not know what to do without paper towels and zip lock baggies.

7. this is the longest i have ever kept a diary/journal.

my best friend sharon came and played with me this weekend. we always have so much together...went to the mall, watched movies, went bowling, ate too much, crafted and just hung out! i am so grateful for her friendship and all of our memories together.
a little girls weekend treat!
michael, briana, sharon and i went bowling and did i mention that i won??? i did!
these are the journals i've been making for the last 2 days, i am really happy with the way they turned out.

for christmas my auntie susie gave me this beautiful PINK kunzite stone! first of all...Thank You!!!!!! michael took it in to our jeweler and had it set for me. he picked it up on thursday night...and i can not stop looking at it :)

i was watching the DIY (do it yourself) network the other day and a lady just whipped up a handmade, self-bound book...so i wanted to see if i could do it :) with some pink and a few hello kitties' later this is what i came up with
i also had the chance to use my new file folder punch.... LOVE it!!
and i just had to add some 'bling-age'

briana had an all school skate party last week at skate king. i took her and her girlfriends, kidist and fre. they were pretty excited to get there and see everyone...especially the boys
i use to go to skate king almost every weekend through out jr. high school... it was soooo wierd to walk in and see that nothing had changed (truly-nothing) it even smelled the same. i had blast putting my skates on and showing bri some pointers...and boy did my legs/feet hurt the next day. it was much easier 26 years ago......yikes
fre and lupita
briana and kiditst

here is the old downstairs bedroom... it took 2 coats of primmer

to cover all the paint.

here's the new studio pink!!!

i went from a room that was at least 3 times as big and an extra closet..it truly was my dream room. this room is slowly winning me over... it's

tiny and it's mine :) it's starting to 'feel' more like me. i'm thinkin' it's a new start and pretty soon "My Studio Pink" will be up and running!! i'll have a warehouse full of my products, a huge office with staff and maybe even a store...it sure sounds good...really good!!! I have fun ideas and the commitment to go with

-watch out --here i come!!
