I don't usually have nor write down New Year's Resolutions...but since I'm a little behind in my scrapbooking endeavor, I thought I would "start" 2014 with some changes...(ha! it's almost end of the month...I've been feeling under the weather for a couple of weeks now...so, haven't done much of anything...)

So here are my scrapbook-realated resolutions (or more like a to-do list):
1. Scrapbook more
2. Finish two 8x8 albums
3. Start my "Pregnancies" Album
4. Finish last year's Project Life Album
5. Complete any unfinished layouts

And these are my other resolutions:
6. Submit cards/projects to magazines again
7. Start an Art Journal
8. Teach more Classes
9. List more items on my Etsy shop
and to make it an even number...
10. Make some artsy-related videos!

Can't promise I'll check all of them off at the end of the year...but at least I have a list to go by! =)

And here's something I've been working on...the first page of my Project Life style album for 2014:


What about you?
What are your craft-related resolutions???

Two weeks ago, I "made" this...

No...not the hat (I don't knit)...
...the BABY! =)
He was 3 weeks earlier than expected...but still, a little bit heavier than his older brother.
Thank God he was healthy! Sleepy...but healthy!

I know, I know...
I haven't been posting...again...


Here's the reason why!
I'm pregnant...again! =)
About 26 weeks now.


Can't use the computer for too long like last time. It gives me a headache.
But I have a few projects here and there...so, hopefully you'll see some in a few weeks...

WoW!
It's been almost a year since my last post! 


Well, I guess having a baby changes your life completely...


So, in a nutshell, this is what happened...I got pregnant in August 2010...got sick and big, sick and even bigger...until I had the baby in May 2011!
I enjoyed 3 months of maternity leave, went back to work in August 2011, and now I'm still trying to balance baby/family/work/cooking/cleaning, etc...
But this is all good!


The bad thing was that my old laptop broke again and I lost a lot of pictures (again)...
OK...you're thinking...why didn't I saved them somewhere else? Well,...I did, but not everything! haha
But a friend said she might be able to recover them! So, hopefully I'll have them back!


So, I have a new laptop now...and I'm trying to figure out where the photos I haven't posted yet are! =)


Maybe I'll post some of them this week!

I think I've been too lazy...
...too lazy to unpack, too lazy to create and too lazy to blog...

I've set up my new studio (a.k.a extra bedroom) and I think I like the way it looks. I just need to finish organizing my supplies and decorate the room a little bit more...so, hopefully I'll have some pictures to share soon (my mom has been asking me for them...).
My pets are not allowed in the studio, although they try to get in whenever I open the door... =)

And I have 13 more boxes to unpack!!! 13 to go...I guess I'm almost there...
OK...I'll give myself one more week to unpack...

After moving in my new place and trying to unpack as much as I could, I realized that it's gonna take me a lot longer than I thought...




Angel is just not helping at all! =)

It might take me a year!
OK, maybe less...hopefully in a week or 2...'cause I have to start creating again!
I have a craft show in September and I'm a month behind!!!

At least I have internet now...don't have to go to Panera anymore...

And the best thing is that I get to go to IKEA and shop!

Yes!!!

So, we closed last week (on Monday)...had some problems...but finished moving everything last Sunday!
Now I have to finish unpacking...

And I don't really have internet right now...so, if I take a while to respond...please, forgive me =)

Well...
So we closed this Monday...got the keys...went to the new house and...the locks had been changed!
We couldn't get in and started making phone calls...

Apparently, someone had order the lock change and to make it worse...they also winterized our place...it's not even winter anymore! =)
I was supposed to be in the new house/studio by now!!! AHHH!

So, I've been packing since May 22nd...
I was supposed to close today...and I was supposed to be moving this weekend...
But something happened and now we'll be closing next Monday...

...I'm glad I haven't packed all my craft supplies...still, I can't do much for the craft show in September, nor much on Etsy... =(

Oh, well...what are you gonna do?

After 7 months or so waiting and waiting...I'm finally moving!!!

I still have to sign some papers before I can move into my new home (and studio) but I'm already packing (at least, that's what my husband told me to do)! =)

So, I've been packing my studio and finding a lot of supplies that I haven't even used yet...or that I "forgot" I had! =)
I probably have enough supplies to keep me busy for a while...so, once again...my husband told me to get rid of them, because I've been buying too much stuff"...

My loss is your gain!
I'll be listing my DeStash on my Etsy Shop...I'll list some clear stamp sets now and after I move, I'll list the rest of the supplies (I still have to take pictures)...so, add my Etsy Shop as a favorite and check back often!

Here's the address! http://theleafstudio.etsy.com

OK!
I'm officially on vacation mode...
I have a week off from my full-time job...so, I'll take a week off from my "part-time" job, too! =)

If you purchase any items from my Etsy and Stamprints {Art Stamps} shops during April 28th and May 5th, please note that they will be shipped on May 6th!!!

Thank you!
