Had a FUN weekend... or rather a fun Friday night anyway! On Saturday night, I was in bed by 10:00 to make up for the lack of sleep the night before. Anyway... Friday night was the first of many going-away parties for my friends that are moving to Dallas this summer. We are starting now with the going away parties, since her husband has to move & start working there now. Going to miss them... :-(
On a creative note... I have finally accepted an invitation to Pinterest. I've had the email in my inbox for a couple weeks now & was reluctant to join. Just what I need... another time-waster. But I joined. And I'm already pretty sure it's going to be a major time-waster. SO. MUCH. INSPIRATION. Also a one-stop place to store all the images that inspire me, rather than filling up the photo space stored on my computer like I do now. You can find me here. Let me know if you'd like an invite. I think if you join by invite, you're on right away. I've heard that if you join on your own, it's takes a couple weeks before your account is established. Is that correct?
We've already been to church today, ran 4 miles, ate lunch & am now waiting for my friend to come over and sell me her Cricut machine + the DoodleCharms cartridge for a really great price! I'm so excited she asked me, as I'd been thinking for awhile now about buying one. Like... every time I see my friend, Jing-Jing, post another amazing project using her Cricut. In fact, I just went looking for a couple of my favorite projects of hers & she has like 50 "out for publication" signs up so I couldn't find it. You GO, girl! Anyway, back to the Cricut... I also just ordered the CreateACritter cartidge on sale for $21.95 to use with it. I don't even know how to use it yet & I'm already buying cartidges for it! LOL! So excited!
Plan to see lots of Cricut creations here soon... just sayin'! ;-)
Sounds like you had an incredible Friday night!!!!! Enjoy your cricut - I don't have a die cutting machine but I keep such positive things about them - and to get one for a really good price is awesome! Have a great week!

Welcome to the cricut world my friend. I like mine and I use mine. I have a total of 14 cartridges, which is nothing compared to most people, but that's good enough to keep me happy and occupied. I am with you re: pinterest... though I have never gotten an invitation, lol.

Cricut = craziness! Some people get so obsessed with buying all the cartridges they can. I love having just a few staples for mine (although, I really DO want Create A Critter).
Everyone seems to have a Pinterest now. I'm hesitant to join the bandwagon. But to have images all in ONE SPOT?!... Gaah. Why do I feel like I just talked myself into it?

I love how social you are :) A bit jealous . . .
You will love your Cricut. I don't have one (I have a Slice) but my mom does so I just use hers when we visit if I want something.
Pinterest--I'm resisting, resisting, resisting (let's see how long that lasts LOL).

I'm always enjoying your happy photo's, Deana!! You're always surrounded by so many beautiful people!
I once had a Cricut but I didn't like it and sold it. Perhaps I'll be sorry when you'll show us the projects you're going to create with yours... ;-(
