Some warm fuzzies...

OMGoodness...I am an organizational freak *lol* I LOVE it when my space is clean and tidy and I have the right containers, boxes, cases etc for all of my items. They need homes too you know! (did you hear me justifying that purchase?) I received my Clip It Up! (both tiers) today and decided with the amount of "stuff" I have in this room I might as well see some of it. Although both tiers were cha ching! it was worth EVERY penny (more justification on spending a small fortune). I will have to post a photo of it later just to show you how FABULOUS it is. I have a few more things to put on it yet *wink* Who knew a girl could have so much hidden stuff?

I have been working on lots of FUN things that I can't share just yet but I promise that once I am allowed to share you will be the first to know!

My work with CHF is really exciting too. The ladies that I work (along with Liz and Richard) are all phenomenal. Through chats you can really sense our excitement to get started not to mention our sense of sisterhood. CHF has many wonderful things in store for you and I know that you will be over the moon when you learn about them...very soon!

Hopefully I didn't "tease" you too much but to make up for it I made a lil' creation using with one of my retired CHF stamps. This little doggy licking snowflakes was just too darn cute to pass up. When CHF had their blowout sale a month back I bought him thinking I had the perfect "thanks snow much" greeting to go along with him. I used a CPS sketch (#5) for the general layout, then pulled out the DP, buttons and my Copics and started playing.



Recipe

Paper: Chocolate Chip (SU!), Dasher DP (Basic Grey), Victorian Lace (Fancy Pants Designs), Stamper's Select White (Papertrey Ink)
Ink: Pallette Noir
Stamp Set(s): Dog and snowflakes (CHF), Thanks Snow Much (A*Muse)
Accessories: Buttons (MME), Word Window (SU!), Corner Rounder (SU!) Gelly Roll (Sakura), Copic Markers


Well that is all today. I have lots of work ahead of me for the rest of the week. Sorry this post was so late. DH and I had some comfy quiet time together last night. It was nice to relax and forget about the computer (remember I also do online teaching).
If you haven't been following Nichole's recent posts I suggest you go and see what she has in store for her September release. Of course I will be ordering them. Go figure Alli and Papertrey stamps? *snicker* Only 3 ore sleeps until I can order them...

Because I love to stamp and you do too!
Alli

P.S. It is so hard to believe that 9/11 is here again. I took a few minutes today to remember how short life really is, to pray for all the families affected by this tragedy and to reflect on the things that can be learned from this "event" in history. Hugs to all!

It's great to hear how much you're enjoying your new CHF work. And the snow dog card is so cute! Yep, it is the perfect sentiment.
