Dear Crafty fairy godmother where ever you are part 2(aka updated wish list.LOL)

To my dear crafty fairy godmother where ever you are:

I wrote to you many many months ago asking you to please send me some crafty goodies. and you have Thank you but here is an updated list of of my wish list. :)


Tim Holtz distress ink-Thanks to you I have 10 more inks to play with along with my 4! :)

Tim Holtz old stuff, Tim Holtz new stuff...

dies and embossing folders

 Lindsy Stamp Gang I really want to try that all that wonderful stuff. .

Papers, can't have enough of it. I am not a vintage type of girl. As you seen some of my stuff you know I'm more of a retro type of girl. 50's 60's and 70's.


tape for my ATG, I was finally getting the hang of the ATG when I ran out of tape in a middle of a project! I was finally liking it. lol

I'm sure there's more I need...I mean want but can't think of thing more on the top of my head. :)

There's my list crafty fairy godmother. I am sure there are many more things that I would like but can't think of at the moment. That's the good thing about blogs, you can go back and edit. :)

With love
Sheri

Lucky

I've been a lucky streak the last couple of days. Friday afternoon I noticed that Top Chef Bravo started to follow me. I was like hmmm. The I saw on twitter that I was the winner for last weeks prize! :) I was totally surprised, because I don't remember entering. LOL I get a cool little prize pack. a gift card for 1 month free of their Top Chef University. Its like an online cooking class on bravotv.com . I get a copy of their new cookbook "How to Cook Like a Top Chef" and I get a Top Chef Apron. I faxed them all my info so I should get that in a few days or so.

Then today on facebook I follow Shoreline Sightseeing. They give tours on boats of downtown Chicago off Lake Michigan. Every Monday they have a contest to be the first to comment on a post and the winner gets 2 free tickets for a tour. The last few weeks they were doing trivia questions. Today was about around the world in 80 days. There was a picture of this guy who I guess is doing around the world in 80 days. There question was where the guy and also the main character in the book start the trip off at. the question was up for 6 minutes and no one answered it. I was shocked. I didn't know the answer so I did what anyone would do-looked it up online. Answer: London. So I won the 2 tickets! :)

So I have some things to look forward to in the mail soon!

Reading and Journaling

I think I said in this blog before that I have read read the first 3 or 4 books in the Sookie Stackhouse series, and getting mad at the author Charlaine Harris for not keeping Sookie and Eric together. So I stopped reading. Then True Blood series debut on HBO. I only heard about it because I do not have HBO, and had to wait for the DVD to come out. I got it from Netflix and watched it last year. Loved it, and made me want to read the series again. As I've been told to go back and read it, as it get better. I haven't til recently.

The last 2 weeks I went to the library to get some of the series. I was hoping to get the first 3 of the series to refresh my memory, but they didn't have the first 4 there so I got the next 3 of the series: "Dead as a Doornail", "Definitely dead" and "All Together Dead"  5-7. I've read "Dead as a Doornail" before, I didn't remember if I did til I started reading it. Tomorrow or Friday I'm going to take them back and hope to get the last 2 or 3 in the series, depending if the library has them.





I've been working in my art journal again. Its funny I only seem to work on it when I watch Paula, Journal Artista on Ustream. Though I think I did one page when I wasn't watching her. I worked on pages I've worked on before and worked on a couple new pages. Instead of pictures I'll probably do a :deep breath: video on them. Also maybe a video on what I art mediums I use on my pages(besides paper). That shouldn't be a very long video. LOL
