and the other thing. Just thrown in for good measure!
Back from Seattle, WA and holy scrap! What a beautiful state this time of year! I enjoyed every minute of my 4.5 days there. {And I do mean every single minute - we only slept about 10 hours total, trying to cram in as much as we possibly could!}
So fun to meet up with some Northwestern and Canadian Scrapy Land Divas. Especially when they were all Dani-lovin', QuicKutz Gift Set anxious, S.L.V.C. anticipating Divas! I took three registrations for the Virtual Crop, right in the middle of the convention floor {thanks again Kimberly, Jennifer and Tiffani}. Love it - we're in serious count down mode this week!
I also helped Chris shop at Scrapy Land from her Blackberry while we waited in line for lunch! {Talk about lunch break enabling!} What did we do before mobile technology?
But today it's back to Arizona sunshine reality. Which means laundry, groceries, basketball carpool...and CROP PREPARATION! I can't wait - it's going to be a crazy week and a jam-packed 24 hours this weekend!
One of the things I am working feverishly on is organizing several tips and tricks to share with you this weekend.
Tips and tricks that involve
these...
A few enabling remarks about
these...
And an admission that you all were right! So far, this IS my favorite color of Letterpress ink...
And deciding that, so far, THIS is my favorite stack of goodies...
It's LETTERPRESS bLiss everywhere you look in my scrap room right now!
I'm saving project pictures for later in the week though - I can't share everything with you today.
OH OKAY - just one little project teaser...
using this perfectly timely
Printing Plate!
But that's it for right now. Tune in later this week for more learn/play projects as I work my way through plates, inks and papers!
{And please forgive all of the above dark/wonky-lit pictures. I took them late at night last week because I was so excited to share. But now all of the boxes are opened and I can't reshoot them in better lighting...OOPS!}
The other thing I'm working on today is getting goodies lined up for this weekend. Here is one picture of our weekend goodies...
but when Dani sees this he might be jealous and want it to be his INSTEAD. {LOL} We'll see!
If you've registered for the Scrapy Land Crop 2.0 - watch your IN BOX today for the first official email. Schedule, details, suggestions, times, how-tos and game particulars will be included. If you have any questions before then, don't hesitate to email me directly.
Lots of Divas should be getting their
QuicKutz Holiday Gift Sets in the mail starting today - be sure and leave us a comment letting us know what you're going to die-cut first. Ideas and inspiration are coming in from everywhere and I just love it!
I'm off to tackle the laundry, and to find out if Letterpress Gold Ink comes out of dog fur. {It's a really long story, let's agree to NOT talk about it until next week. LOL!}
I'm here for your habit...

I can't wait to see what you've been doing with your Letterpress (so gealous!!) Looooove all the pieces parts in the gift set--I'm making a small "give thanks" album first and I think I'm trying to use everything at once...by far one of my FAVORITE sets. "See" you friday at the SLVC 2.0!
After all those teasers it makes me want to "sneak" in a laptop to the retreat I'll be on this weekend just to tune in and see all the fun things you have planned!
Oh, I need that T-shirt! If I register my evil twin would I increase my chances of winning it??? I am so anxious to see what you have planned for us!
