I am so excited. I have been very hard at work tonight...After I got up my video, I uploaded my card to both scrapbook.com and cricut.com. :) I also started a Pink Cricut page on Facebook! You can join that page here! I also linked my facebook updates to Twitter! So, if you tweet...you can find me here.
Oh, and I forgot to mention: Tomorrow some of my favorite srappers and myself are getting together to craft! I am VERY excited to get together with them! What could be better? Friends, Paper, Embellishments and Wine!
All in all, I think I have had a rather productive night--and have earned myself a nice night's sleep. So goodnight, all!

Hi Friend Card
Okay, I made my first video!!! WOOHOO...now, I just have to figure out how to get it edited and uploaded. I promise you it is very, very "beginner-ish" . Trying to record yourself, while crafting--is not as easy as it sounds. And, of course my camera stopped recording a couple of times, without me knowing--so I promise you, next time I won't miss ANY of the action ;).
Here is the final card --that I made in the video!

The card was made with the new Songbird paper from DCWV, and the bird was cut out with the Cricut cartridge, Straight From the Nest.
Michael's Sale of the Season
I took a little trip to Michael's with a couple of my favorite scrappers last night. It was a last minute kinda thing....I kept reading Michael's ad headline, "Lowest Scrapbooking Prices of the Season," and I just could not resist.
Now, I am typically a Hobby Lobby girl--because in our town they offer a better selection--and have better prices most of the time. But, Michaels gets a visit from me every once in awhile. And, the ad was right--there were some pretty great prices on things. All their scrapbooking storage was 50% off. I could've really stocked up, but the question of where am I going to put it...kept floating through my head. So, I stuck to another set of plastic jar containers for my prima flowers- and a new small carry tote- in ZEBRA print.
Their paper was 40% off as well--which heaven knows I did NOT need paper--so I just picked up one booklet of DCWV in Songbird, because it was too cute to pass up, and I knew it was a Michael's exclusive.
Inks were also 40% off--uhoh. I just started collecting the fluid chalk inks--and so I picked up a couple more sets. So far not too shabby...then we came upon something I have never seen before...something that will bring me back to Michael's more often in the future. It was a whole section of American Girl crafting supplies. We are talking their own stamps, ink, books, paper, stickers, jewelry making kits, knitting kits--EVERYTHING.
Well, how could I pass up adding to my darling daughter's collection, when we have a trip to American Girl in a few weeks? I did pretty good--and only bought a few stickers and stamps. I could have gone crazy buying things--and you know per usual, American Girl was not cheap and it was only 20% off.
The new scrapping items went straight into the tote daddy picked up for Alexis the other day...isn't he sweet? And, doesn't he know his girls too well? So, well that at 8:00 he texted us a reminder of time--because I had promised I wouldn't take very long....and he had an errand to run before 9.
Oops...where does the time go when you enter a craft store?
Now, off to using some of my pretty new paper!

Blog Remodel and New Domain Name
So, I have been working really hard tonight--on the new "look" of my creative blog. My DH also purchased the blog domain name-- http://www.pinkcricut.com/ . So, that will be what you can type in from now to find me!! Of course, I will not leave you hanging--if you have bookmarked me already, my old site will re-direct you.
I have also started posting some of my work on http://www.scrapbook.com/ tonight. So, as you can see, I have been very busy :). I know there are a million things I want to do to this new website, but I have to stop for tonight!
But, I will let you in on a little secret! I am hoping as soon as my voice stops sounding so froggy, I will try my hand at my very first video blog. :)
