Every Year we have a family Picnic at Wild waves provided by work. So this year I'm taking my BF Dan and I have one more entrance ticket and no takers. what a bummer. Guess I'll look at the park for someone who might want it.
Or I'll post it on line for the work people. My son changed his mind and doesn't want to go.
This always starts my Vacation off with a bang! Two whole weeks of vacation and day trips. bummer my Bf could n't get the full time off. He got 4 days. I have a Dr/s apt which I am going to move to a different day and then we are planning a trip to the Peninsula That should be fun.
I am going to take lots' of pictures. I love taking pictures. :)
Here we are at ocean shores. We went for the day. We had an awesome time. :) I love the waves!
It turned out to be an awesome sunny day too.
Having fun with life's challenges, by creating art. Altering books, creating Journals, writing in my journals, creating all art, sharing techniques I've learned. Using all types of art mediums. Stamping, Scrapbooking, paper crafting, etc.. Join me on Youtube: Friends of Mary Kay's Artful Journey.

Puyallup Scrapbook Expo
Awe, So much fun and so little money. I tried to be on a budget with the Scrapbook Expo. I was very careful not to get carried away on the $1 stuff. That stuff adds up. And how often do you get to use it. Usually it just adds to the Craft clutter. We were able to see everything in one day. We didn't do any of the classes, really didn't see any thing new as far as what they were teaching, but to a new Scrap-booker they were great classes. My one favorite find was the "elizabeth craft" Peal off stickers. It's like a whole new way to emboss with out heating powder. I will be showing some of what I did after I got home and the 1 make & take card that I did. Oh and for bringing my post card in I got a great door prize and $2 off it was awesome.
My phone is updating now with new software. so downloading the picture is taking longer then reasonable. I'm on my way to the farmers market, I'll add it when I come back. I'm back.
The card below was my Make & Take at the "Stampn' Up!" booth. Too cool ! ok so I messed up a little bit on the top but it is a protégé.
This next one is I'm adding is using the stickers I bought and some "Copic" markers I have. Oh and I also used "Stickles" glitter. I like that stuff.

I just love these stickers and you don't even need a heat gun for these. Big Pudding Smile!

Sunday and still sunny
A little windy out there a little cloud cover, but I believe the wind is blowing the clouds away. Me and my Honey Dan are planning our ritual run to Starbucks for our Breakfast Sandwich and Coffee. My favorite coffee is a Hazelnut white chocolate mocha, with carmel drizzle on the froth.... yummy. It's good hot or iced. Yummmy.
I'm hoping we can go to the zoo. The last time I went the tiger cubs were out with there mom and I got some great pictures. Isn't that a great picture. It's at the Pt. Defiance Zoo in Tacoma. I love tigers they are so majestic.

One counter cleaned
I'm still doing the "Necessary"; I got one counter cleaned in the kitchen all the silverware done, recycling out; garbage out, cardboard cut down and removed vacuuming partially complete, Bills played, 2 loads of laundry, hair dyed. Now its time to make dinner.. :) Hot Dogs on the Grill.
I'm still learning this Blogging.
I went to click on a follower, my friend, and it signed me up as a follower on my own site... ugh... hopefully I didn't do anything wrong. If I knew how to remove it, I would... still learning.
But on the Upside. I did get a lot of things accomplished. One counter cleaned in the kitchen, the grill cleaned 2 loads laundry done some vacuuming. I haven't gotten my Starbucks yet... :( But there is still daylight. :)

Where did the time go
Already afternoon, I've washed two loads of laundry, dyed my hair, added to my blog and ate a cookie. :) Hope everyone is having an enjoyable day. Time to go get a Starbucks Coffee.
Good Morning!
I have been wanting to do a blog for a long time and finally I have enough confidence to try this and use it. I love to share my creativity and I hope that all of you will enjoy what I have to share. Plus, there are things I need to accomplish and helping others while I help myself makes me feel I've accomplished something. :)
Hope everyone is out enjoying the sun. Back to de-cluttering, that's one of my new pages... it has positive thinking and motivating options. check it out. let me know what you think. :0) Have an awesome day.

Welcome to my blog
I'm creating the blog to share my creativity with others because I like to so much, I may even share other sites I like with you. Of course I'd rather be stamping than blogging. lol
