Public Records Law and other excitement

Okay, first, I am a really bad blogger. Sorry about that, but it's unlikely to change LOL Second, although it's often newsworthy because it's often the news people trying to get something released, public records law is really not very exciting and I've been spending the day knee deep in it! Some interesting research tasks at least though and I always love a good hunt - it's kind of like looking for treasure :) Okay, now that the boring stuff is out of the way, the excitement!

The Scrapartist team kit is coming together for the big anniversary event on the weekend of the 29th - it's gonna be a must-attend! The kit is fantastic and there's gonna be some other great prizes too. We just have such a talented bunch over there - I am ceaselessly amazed and very grateful to be a part of it.

Next, I am loving the new Scrapbookgraphics! A bunch of Carrie's great stuff is there - I really think she's doing the best work yet right now. And, Anna Aspnes has got to stop making fantastic brushes because I'm going to run out of money buying them!

If you haven't been by the Digichick lately, definitely stop in - the boutique is full of great stuff right now - I am especially loving Jan's designs these days - and we've started a fun new Tuesday night chat centered around chick-flicks - how fun is that for the summer?

In non-scrapping news, I'm finally gonna take some time off next week. And, the best part is that we're not really going to do much of anything! Don't get me wrong, I love to travel and spend time in San Diego or Michigan or the White Mountains or whatever, but right now the idea of spending a lot more time on the couch sound incredible! No packing, no planning, just time to relax and, of course, create! I haven't had more than a weekend of just free time since after the bar exam three years ago and I am definitely ready for it!

So, there you have it, the excitement for the moment! And, just for fun, here's my latest creation - I'm going to try to force myself to do some layouts on a time constraint - I'm such a slow scrapper and although I don't generally mind that, I feel like I overanalyze things sometimes and that it would help me to just let things flow. A time limit helps with that. So, my first half-hour project is posted below :)
