Just a quick update.

Yes, I know....it's been a month.  And sadly, I haven't done a bit of scrapping. :(  It's been, ummmm.... interesting around here.   I found out that I'm pregnant. Yes, you read that right. Pregnant.  Surprise!!!  Let's just say that since finding out there have been a lot of issues and talking and swearing and tears.  We'll leave it at that.
This weekend we are looking at a bigger house. (I hope!)  So, I may be moving by the end of the month.  No matter what, my scrappin' goodies are getting packed up for the time being.  If we don't move, there is going to be a shifting of living arrangements to accommodate the upcoming changes.  I've decided that if we don't move (or even if we do maybe)  I'm buying a Workbox to hold my stuff.   But that's off in the distant future. *sigh*  I have to wait for another free shipping promotion and save my pennies for it.
So thats the jist of what's been happening with me.  Just in case you were wondering.... :)

I'm behind already....

It's what, the 13th of January?  And I'm behind on my scrapping, lol.  The worst part about that is that I don't have any excuse for it.  I've been piddling around, but haven't finished anything.  I am waiting on a package that is being delivered today (yeah!) that contains a new cuttlebug folder and some prima flowers that will assist me in finishing up my projects, so that's a good thing.  And yesterday, I stumbled across some very cute $1 stamps at Joann's.  These pics aren't the best, but I wanted to share:

These are super cute!  There are some kid looking Valentines day ones, some Friendship ones and some general everyday ones.  I'm excited to use them!  And the kiddos want to use them for their cards for school. These ought to make some some ones.
Alrighty, I just wanted to share my find.  Be sure to check out the post below about Stampin' Up's Sale-A-Bration.  I am just so excited about this!  I <3 free stuff!!

Stampin' Up Sale-A-Bration!

Hello again!  I thought I'd post today about Stampin' Up's Sale-A-Bration.   Now, what is Sale-A-Bration you ask?  Well, it's your opportunity to earn free SU products. Order just $50 (before tax & shipping) of SU products and receive a free item from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Place an order of $150(before tax & shipping) or more and start earning hostess sets, free product and free products featured in the Sale-A-Bration catalog.  Orders of $300(before tax & shipping) or more earn hostess sets, free product plus an additional free item from this mini-catalog: Sale-A-Bration. I know what you're thinking...."Wow, crazy girl, $300 is a lot of moolah right after Christmas."  And I have a solution for you!  Be a hostess to a virtual workshop!!  Get yourself a few friends, gather around the computer and shop to your hearts content.  Let me give you an example of what you, the hostess with the mostest, could earn with a scenario such as:

You have 6 friends who decide they cannot live without $65 worth of awesome SU products.  You yourself absolutely need $60 worth of product.  That gives your virtual workshop a total of $450.00.  Awesome!!  Now you get to pick out FREE product for yourself!  A party total of $450.00 earns you the following:
Either 2 Level 1 Hostess Sets or 1 Level 1 *and* 1 Level 2 Hostess Sets - Plus -
$50 in FREE SU products - Plus -
One FREE item out of the Sale - A - Bration catalog.

But that's not it!!  Every single one of your guests receive one FREE item out of the Sale-A-Bration catalog for every $50 they spend, including you!  So now you've spent $60 (plus Tax & Shipping) and you've received over $100 in FREE SU products!  Seriously!!!  Does it get any better?

But you're still thinking "Woman, you're still crazy!  I don't want to be a hostess."  That's cool too!  For every $50 you spend (before tax & shipping), you get to choose 1 item out of the Sale-A-Bration catalog, FREE!  You still get a great deal!

Sale-A-Bration is only going on now through March 31st, 2010, so take a look at the catalogs below and if you decide to place an order, here's how:

Step 1 - Make a list of the awesome SU product you would like to order - {Don't forget your free products!}
Step 2 - Send me an email at cassandra.ervin@gmail.com that includes your list, shipping information (including zip code so I can calculate your tax & shipping) and I will get back to you with your total.
Step 3 - You can pay me via PayPal

My first project of 2010.

I finally completed my first project of 2010.  It is a little mini-book for Christmas 2009.  It needs pictures and journaling, but it's still kinda cute. :)  I used October Afternoon's "Nightlight" collection for this book. It was a kit purchased from Green Tangerines.  I got several of these little kits at the Scrapbook Expo back in September and I've vowed to use them, lol. I'm off to a good start.

And here is a sneak peek of next weeks project.  This is one that ought to be fun, even though I'm not a Valentine's kind of girl.... :)

















So, I'm off for now.  Everyone have a good week. :)
