Bling, bling and more bling...

It's definitely not what I normally do on a Saturday, but it's something I love to do. I love to create things and see them done. Today, I worked on making rhinestone letters for some dance costumes for Nationals. I made 19 letters from Jet black Hot Fix rhinestones. It's not very hard, but it is a little time consuming because you have to lay down one stone at a time. It is also very wearing on the eyes. I was happy when I was done with all the letters. Now I have to iron them on to the shirts.

While I was in the mood, and I had all my supplies out, I went ahead and started working on the iron on transfers for some New Moon shirts. Some friends have asked me for a "blinged" New Moon shirt. The front will say New Moon and the back, a tag line from the book. I already picked mine, everyone else needs to pick out theirs.

My messy work area

I started working on this, but I'm not very happy with it so far, I think I need to order smaller stones, or play with the font size. I think they are going to look pretty cool.

I'm also making some pretty cool hats for another costume. I'm making 21 of those, I will post a picture of those when I'm done. I can't wait to see them all done. For now, I'm very tired and my eyes are blurry from rhinestoning all day, so I think I'll take a break until tomorrow. I might just go re-read Harry Potter and The Half Blooded Prince. I have to get ready for that movie. I guess that won't really help my eyes very much, now will it?

Neisha I can't wait to get my shirt now! They are going to look awesome. I am going to go through the book tomorrow to pick out a line. A big thank you to Ruben because you have to be a computer genius to download that font so now you can make anything from the Twilight Saga and have the exact font. I may want 2 shirts because you know we will have to break our records from twilight( I mean seeing@ the theatre). Remember our shirts for Twilight nobody had them and people kept complimenting us! We will be Original again:)

vous êtes conviés

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

Good things come to those who wait...

I was having one of those bad Mondays. One of those Mondays when everything seems to be going wrong. 1. Our phones at the office are not working. 2. Statements went out over the weekend and angry patients are calling to complain. 3. My coffee got cold and I had to throw it away, and now I have a caffeine headache. 4. My cell phone has been tied up all day because I'm having our calls forwarded to it. (good thing for rollover minutes). 5. My boss has just added two more things to my darker pink "TODO" notebook. And just as I was about to roll up in a ball and hide under my desk, I got this e-mail. Dear Kindle Customer, Today, we introduced Kindle 2, the next generation of our wireless reading device.

Where do I begin???

After a long absence from my blog, I am finally sitting down to post. So much has happened in the past month that I honestly don't know where to begin. December 23, 2009 turned my world upside down. My mom suffered a minor heart attack, and was taken by ambulance to Chandler Regional Hospital. When I arrived, she was in good shape, and she was talking. They ordered a CT Scan of her chest. When she got back to the ER from her test, every thing that could have gone wrong, did. She suffered another heart attack, this one was much worse. She was in-tubated and things were not looking very good for her. The next few days were spent waiting for tests to be run, consulting with Dr.s and praying. A lot of praying. We were finally told that she would need to undergo a quadruple bypass. There was a problem with that, because she was in critical condition. Her kidneys were failing, her blood pressure was to high, as was her blood sugar. And, she was to weak. The surgeon said that we would ...
