OMG I WON!!!



I can't believe it! I never win anything but today I did!! I made my way over to Scrapadabadoo's blog this morning and low and behold... there was a video posted of Barrie pulling a name from the fish bowl and I almost fainted when she read my name!! I got up and started to Fudderwack immediately!! (think Alice and Wonderland)

I was blessed to meet Barrie and Carol from Scrapadabadoo.com and joined their blog... and on their blog they were giving away this new die from Tim Holtz that he signed at CHA. How cool is that!! Barrie and Carol are the sweetest ladies ever! I have been a fan of Marion Smith for quite some time (thanks to my niece Stephanie) and have been enjoying her classes on her website and for Prima. During those classes we all get to chatting and that's where I've gotten to know Barrie and Carol better. It's such a great time and I even made an amazing friend in Leslie Morgan Cranwill on there too!! You sooo have to check out Leslie's work too! She is so talented! (I'll post her blog address in another post)

I'll have to make sure I put something together from the die as soon as I get it and post it for all to see! I'm so excited! I love Tim Holtz's work too! In this past year I have felt my artistic heart explode with inspiration from Tim, Marion, Carol, Leslie, Stephanie, Barrie.... oh heck so many to name... and not to mention some of the other work I've looked at through You Tube and links from blog to blog to blog. I'm so glad I've found something that lets me explore the images that come to mind as I live each day!! I wish I could spend every day scrapping and creating!

Stop by Scrapadabadoo.com and their blog at www.scrapadabadoo.blogspot.com/ and check out Barrie and Carol's store and creations!! Um... and by the way, that's Barrie in the video with her newly done nails :)
