STARSTRUCK!!…

Posted by Jen | random ramblings | Wednesday, February 13, 2008

Well, I am back at home and slightly rested. I have been browsing through my pics and will have a lot of product and project pics over the next couple of days. However, today I have to show you all the awesome celebs I met/saw. On the first day I was very fortunate to meet a lot of the industry celebs, including Alli Edwards, Tim Holtz, Heidi Swapp and as the week went on I got to see some “real” celebrities. We “ran into” a very pregnant Melissa Joan Hart aka Clarissa Explains It All or Sabrina, The Teenage Witch. On my flight back to DFW, I had attorney Gloria Allred and our very own Cowboys quarterback, Tony Romo {I wonder who he was visiting in LA!?!} sitting just a few seats away from me. I “ran into” Mr. Romo in the terminal and got is autograph for Carole’s son, Truman. He was very nice and just **a little** cute. Ellie was in my arms and I asked her to say “Hi,” she said “No!” LOL!!

Here is a shot of me and Ali Edwards. I gotta tell ya, she is just plain cool to talk to!

Finally, here is the autograph I got from Tony Romo. I saw him when he was on the plane all curled up in his American Airlines blanket and taking a little snooooooooze.

OMG!! We found a goldmine! The most BEEEEEAUUUUTIFUL ribbon ever was spotted at Beaux Regards {Sorry, no link. They are currently working on a website}. I must tell ya, this stuff is not cheap. I don’t know that it will make it to the mainstream paper crafting market. With that said, I STILL have to show you the stuff because it is so yummy!!

Inkin’ of You Sketch For You To Try…

Posted by Jen | cards, challenges, designer of the month | Saturday, February 9, 2008

Thank goodness it’s Saturday!! That means it’s time for another SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY…YAY! When I made this sketch, I put the heart in as the embellishment to hopefully give you some sort of divine inspiration for any Valentine’s cards left to do. You are more than welcome to use any shape and/or embellishment that you would like. The sample that I made was left behind for Tony and Ellie to find while I am living the crafty life in SoCal for a few days. It may be a little girly for Tony’s taste, but I think that Ellie will love it.

For more great samples, check out the Carole, Shannan and Susan’s samples.

**When uploading to SCS, please use the keyword SFYTT** I am really looking forward to seeing what you do with this sketch!!

Here’s my sample for the sketch…
