The weekend has gone by toooooo fast.

I had a nice weekend. 

Saturday, I went to a fun fundraiser crop in Bowie hosted by Michele Herring at Mt. Oak Church.  I also went to Hobby Lobby in Laurel and Michael's in Bowie.  Then I went to the Regal Bowie to see "Baggage Claim".  It was a funny movie with some chocolate eye candy.  The plot was predictable though.  It was entertaining as a movie should be.

Sunday, I slept, watched TV, unpacked my stuff from the crop on Saturday, tidied up my scrap room, scanned my layouts from yesterday, and just goofed off.  It was a carefree day!  I only have 1 regret:  I overslept and missed church.  At least I did watch some tele-evangelists on cable.

Here are 5 of the 6 layouts that I created Saturday.  1 of them I need to add some finishing touches to it.

What a wonderful day today was in the DC/MD/VA area!!!

What a wonderful day today was in the DC/MD/VA area!!!  The federal government shutdown has ended.  I did an Imaginisce sketch challenge.  I met a cutie pie name Brandon.  I got pampered with a pedicure, eye wax and massage.  I went to Michaels to get some Hero Arts Stamps and left with more than I had intended:  4 Hero Arts stamps, 2 Hampton Arts stamps, 1 Craftsman stamp and 6 Studio G stamps.  Not to mention that I racked up on Recollections goodies that were/are 40% off.  Then I went to Hobby Lobby and got some Paper Studio goodies that were 50% off.

Check out my new stamping goodies:






































 
Yummy right?  I can't wait to play around with them.

I entered this one in the 1 pic challenge and the boys challenge at Scrapbook.com.  They came out cute right?  I even shared them on Imaginisce's Facebook page.  I hope they like them.
