What a weekend!

Did someone change the date on Christmas and didn't tell me? Well that's what it felt like this weekend!!! My best friend Monica comes by this weekend and drops me off a card in the mail. I wasn't home, but she bought me a card and gave me a $75.oo dollar gift certificate to Target. That was great, because the kids had $25 dollar gift certificates to Target, from school, so we all went to Target. I walk in and BAM this purse caught my eye.....OH MY! Chocolate Brown, lots of embellishments, only 50 bucks. Had to get it!!
Anyone who knows me know that I love purple! Saw the Cutest Purple polka dotted day planner by Franklin Covey, had to get it! Only 7bucks! Also bought these tealight candles. Oh, they smell so heavenly, pluse it matches the decor in my room. Dark mint green and Purple.

Saturday, was SWEETEST DAY. And for me, it was SWEET! Dh came home with this basket from the bath and body works. Does my man not know me. It's Tropical Passion Fruit. Love it....But that's not all folkes! He bought me a $150 dollar gift certificate to ARCHIVERS!!!!!!!!! Not only did he get the GC. He took me to ARchivers and shopped with me. I want to marry this man again!
This is my personal favorite! The cutest little felt flowers by American Crafts....Had to have these~

More stamps! It's Bonnie's fault. I had to have those freaking freestyle letters...LOL Aren't those Monogram stamps to die for! If not for the gc, I would have passed them up, because they are 15 dollars a piece.
I love MM and K-ology. Love those K-ology glittered chipboard letter, deco clips, deco brads, and flower. MM came out with some new gadgets, I am a gadget girl and had to get them. Along with some Christmas brads and ribbons!


OK, ARchiver's 3 doors down from a huge Joann's. Dh went to sport n goods store. I ran in Joann's. I hit the motherload! How come nobdoy ever told me about Nancy's boutiques. Do you not see those chipboard shapes and coasters and with the 40% sale dare is say 5 bucks.
Even got some mags and had to complete my DD series! YOu have to complete the series you know....



Look at those rubons....They look so much like the new fancy pants line
Ok I know I am an addict! I am a sucker for buttons too! Love ribbons and buttons!




Do you see the ribbons with the buckle. The pictures does not do it any justice! Those papers are yummy too!
The mini album is even more adorable!





Ok, so I went into Dollar Tree to get a muffin tin. That's right girls....I am altering one! Found the cutest little notebooks and notecards and pens.....I am a sucker for stationary!
Love those note cards!






So, Jaree and I had Crafty Fridays. I did an altered wood letter. Look at all the bling. The pictures does not do it any justice.
Here it is on my bare walls. I am in the process of moving, but I had to see it hang. Had to get the full affect!







Here is the true Masterpiece. Look at Jaree's creation. She really worked hard!
Look at that proud face and all that paint all over her brand new shirt I just bought....LOL She was so excited!
I did get some other things that made it feel like Christmas. I got the most awesome rak from Bonnie. She is such a sweetheart. She bought me the newest fall scent from Bath and Body works. Pumpkin pie Shower gel!!! Smells so good! The cutest card and some pumpkin spice tea. Isn't she a sweetheart. Plus, I got all 3 of my kits. The Jenni Bowlin kit, The Scrapologie kit, with the Diary supplement, and also my Poppy Ink kit! Will take pics and post later! Blogger is probably going to shut down after all the pictures I uploaded....
Until next time...
Dana
