Moda Bella RAK
Life is busy, not much time to blog lately. But yesterday was ACDT box day and since I had received a box a few weeks ago I figured I could do a RAK during my blogging slump :)

I am *almost* done with an insane scrapping marathon trying to finish up projects for a book by tomorrow morning. This weekend was spent working non-stop and staying up til 3:30 Friday & Saturday nights. Ay yi yi. Mostly because I would glue things down then 10 minutes later change my mind. Some of my pages have like 4 layers of things I just kept covering up... anyone else do this?!?
I hate to tell you, this week really hasn't gotten more exciting. Mid-term, work, scrapping. Oh and cupcakes :) A new bakery opened down the block called
Chaos Theory Cakes. It's owned by Bleeding Heart Bakery, which is also right down the street, and famous for vegan and organic baked goods. Absolutely loved the decor and original flavors...
Dear Google Reader readers... just a heads up for you, I re-edit my posts quite a bit. You've probably figured that out by now ;) A few weeks ago I signed up and put all my favorite blogs on GR (how much do I love it!) but never checked out my own. And now I realize that every time I publish the blog, it shows up as a new GR post. Pretty much every time I post, I will go back and change something... sorry that it is showing up like 5 times on GR. I will try not to be so picky about posts :)
Today was a long and boring day. Bad combination. I got cranky.
I'm sold. Especially on the yellow. Doesn't take much I guess. Just a little photoshop ;)
I always dread starting the work week again after a fun weekend. More fun, more fun!!! Lots of good times with friends Saturday + Sunday...
Maybe this post should be titled Please Please Come Chat with Me! ;) Tomorrow and Friday 2ps is doing a Back to School online crop + classes. There are cool class projects, challenges, and I think I heard prizes mentioned as well :)
You can come chat with me about my class on the education board tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. CST. I'm not going to lie, I always get time zones confused so just to help you out it's 10 a.m. EST, 8 a.m. MST, and 7 a.m. PST... wow, early for you West Coasters (or early to me at least, ha ha!)
So please come chat with me so I'm not the crazy girl sitting there talking to myself... would could still be entertaining... ? ;) See you there!
Thank you so much for all the comments on the Hero Arts giveaway! I love reading the recommendations, those are my favorite kind of comments :) The winner is...
I am so enjoying fresh, local fruit. Here in Ca we have pluots (combo between a plum and apricot). Super sweet and a beautiful purple.

Tammy, email me your address (link on the side) and Hero will get those sent right out to you! Thanks everyone for playing! In case you didn't know, Jennifer McGuire is doing a class at 2ps on stamping on transparencies. She does such an awesome job, I've learned so much from her tutorials!
One of the few perks of paying thousands of dollars to go back to school is taking advantage of the library (and flashing my student ID to get cheaper movie tickets ;))
I have just recently discovered what an awesome resource this is! Since it's a design school there are so many books that I want to borrow. I took out a stack on web design, Photoshop, CS3, and photography. Can't wait to dig in. The magazine racks are awesome too. I had no idea there were so many out there on art & design. The school also has a culinary department so I always stop and pause at the many food mags too... but who am I kidding, those are way over my head ;)
And I was delighted to get a comment from Kimmie recommending Mr. Campy from Cosmo Cricket! Last night I stopped at Windy City and was excited to see they had him in stock... I bought tons. Even though I had some work to get done last night, I had to play a bit and make a Mr. Campy layout just for fun. I love him :)
Hero Arts is one of those companies that I absolutely love... great people, very generous, and they make awesome products! I love checking out the Hero Blog everyday because there are tons of ideas and tips over there. So fun!
**sorry... i decided to give my blog a little makeover and ending up re-posting this post. thank you for the comments, and so sorry they got deleted!!!**
Lots of photos to share from a fun weekend!
