Monday Morning

Monday morning.   I haven't updated for nearly a week.  That was not in the January 16th resolutions.  I never quite made it for January 1st, and I really did want to make some resolutuons, January 16th was going to have to do.  In fact i had hoped to update every few days.  BUT along with the resolution to be a better mother, eat less bad food, drink more water, (anyone else hear a tui's ad?) I made a resolution to try and be out of this office between about 3pm and 8pm every day.  You know.  For the kidlets.  I'm doing pretty well but it seems the blog is coming last. 
I usually LOVE March.  It's still warm but the searing sun has left.  Apparently it has been replaced by 120km hr winds every Friday and Saturday but hopefully this weeknd won't repeat that.  I've got stuff to do.  Like a 4am – 6am stint on the school's Relay for Life team.  I'm disappointed to not make the earlier stint with some friends but kinda determined do be there in some aspect. I'll keep you up to date.. should be fun.
 
Ok so it's Monday the 9th which means I need to tell you about the Tattered Angels and Crafty Secrets March Madness fun.   We've got a entire month of "Playing together" planned. Yep.. the Tattered Angels Design Team and the Crafty Secrets Design Team are going to be working together this month… using both Manufactures projects together.

Every Monday some of the girls ( some from each DT) , will be posting their projects on their blogs. We will be linking to them on all our blogs , each Monday, so that you'll all get a chance to see all the projects from all of the girls by the end of the month.

This week it is Vicki Crisman, Michele Kovak, Melissa Phillips and myself :o)

So yesterday I played.  I had some vintagey notebookey papers from Crafty Secrets to play with and I wanted to pair it with some Tattered Angels stuff.  I admit now, I'm not a vintagey images kinda girl.  but I paired it with some white cardstock and some Tattered Angels Glimmer Chips, a little inking, a little Glimmer Misting and there we go.
A bookmark.
 
For all that reading I'm doing.  You know, that other January 16th resolution.  I've just finished City of Bones by Michael Connelly.  Good book.
 
Laters.

    It’s great that you are getting that reading in … more reading is one of my goals for this year too. And spending less time on the computer is not a bad thing at all …

    City of bones – I read it recently too. Still doesn’t beat Cody McFadyen as an author as far as I’m concerned, but not bad either! Nothing like a good serial murderer to tuck up in bed with at night.
    Great scrapping btw. I need to get some more photos printed and get into it – my supplies are calling my name.

    I love how you layered the crocheted lace bit under the Glimmer Chip frame. And the beaded trim just finishes it off perfectly. I’m reading a book – but I *need* a bookmark like that one! LOL
