Pink Paislee Sweetnes...

hello.

I'm still here.. just finished unpacking yesterday! Have tons of things to post but for now I wanted to share this cute pic of Blue! He's wearing Dean's "I must break you" t-shirt and I think it suits him well :) Love him.

Mari

hello.

Now we return to regular programming...

Stacey, Julie and I landed back home yesterday around 5pm. Talk about a long traveling day!!! we left LA art 9am and didn't get to Orlando till 5pm. I hate it when time differences don't work in your favor :oP I can't wait to show you pics of our adventure but for now I wanted to share my top picks of this winter release. SO MUCH GOOD STUFF. That's all I can say.

I am so thankful I was able to attend and share such a wonderful experience with these two amazing women. If you want to check out all the yumminess that Scrappy Boutique is bringing you, click here. :)

Because...

...Because love is in the air and I'm so not ready to stop playing with this line yet.. :o)

Stay sweet,
Mari

Because...

Do...

So I haven't played with the actual one little word class materials or actual workshop instructions, I know I'm a rebel. But I just wanted to have something that reminded me everyday to just "do" I used Creative Imagination's B.E frame and some Prima goodies on it and I can tell you it has already served its purpose. Although my first thought was "why in the word would I want to stare at a picture of myself everyday?", Dean reassured me that he would be doing the staring - and a double purpose projects makes for a happy girl :o)







Amy and Julie joined me and now have a reminder of "change" and "time" that they will display throughout the year.. Check out Julie's here.

Stay sweet,
Mari

Do...

This darn check....

Has disappeared more times that I can count. Not.my.Fault. This darn thing just refuses to stay still , it wont rest until it's at the bank. Must take care of that soon.

By the way, it literally appeared on our shelf after *days* of looking. Dean claims to have nothing to do with it and I for sure know I didn't put it there.

Thankful the check is back and refusing to question it any longer,
Mari :oP

This darn check....
