WELCOME TO BLOGABELLA

it’s AJ WENNNNSDAY

Well, Art Journaling TOOSDAY has been on hiatus for a while and never thought it affected anyone… well in fact it has.. and I am happy that I heard from sistahs that they loved AJ toosdays and loved an excuse to do something creative in their journals.. I BE HAPPY! lol

so here we go.. this week was an anything goes 🙂

This is one page by moi.. notice the caption on her dress and then look at her expression.. LOL.. doesn’t she look like she wants to SKIP to her LOU? LOL

After YEARS of art journaling, and searching for my style.. and for ME (ps still searching).. I have realized that I LOVE drawing faces, I love watercolor, and I love collage.  So I am sticking to it! LOL

I had to share.

I fell in love with Hy and I hope you do too.  He reminds me of my late grandfather in law papa Issie.  RIP.

I hope to grow up and have his soul and his passion.. his kindness and his intensity in his craft.  I just love the 94.5 year old Hy.

I got this video from Pam Garrison who got it from Mary Ann Moss.  And if you have not yet visited their blogs, I HIGHLY suggest you do!

 

mwah to da sistahs who will “get old” with me.

its a yucky wet blechy bellarific SUNDAY here in toronto..

It’s so weird how the weather can totally affect your mood etc no?

Sistahs I am so sorry I am late with this post.. it’s been such a crazy week I am not sure if I am coming or going.. kids were in camp this week.. then they decided they wanted to change, then I am doing a mad scramble trying to find another one.. don’t ask… GRRRRR  but I do think I found one for them so PLEASE wish me luck this week LOL and forgive my lateness.

I have also realized that not having AJ TOOSDAY has really changed my creative habits and I need them BACK.. so as of this week, we will be having AJ TOOSDAY again.  So please submit your pages, no theme.. let’s just have fun and admire and drool k? k! (THIS WEEK WILL BE ON WEDNESDAY just to give you a little chance to play!)

Sistahs,

Just thought I would say toodles for the weekend now.  I will try to put up Bellarific Friday for tomorrow but since I am leaving to montreal very early I am not sure it will be up until Monday 🙁  So you all have an extra weekend to work on your cards for me ok?  I will post on Tuesday FOR SURE.  Im sorry for the delay 🙁

we have bribed our children to stay in Montreal with their grandparents for all of next week.  Let’s take bets how many of them will return with us on Monday LOL.  I say 2.  hmph.

I have extended the sale until July 3d so if you haven’t taken advantage, I highly suggest you do LOL.. cuz it’s not coming back for a while.. at least not 25%!

I also wanted to let you know that if you have not received a shipping notification from me yet, you will not until next week… shipping resumes on Tuesday.  We have been BURIED with orders so it may take a while to go through.  We are trying our best!  So again, if you are in a rush for your order, please please email me and I will try my best to expedite!  sound good?

Hiya sistahs! Having a good week so far?  I am 🙂

So yesterday was DA big DAY.. my birfday and it was SO underwhelming LOL.. well the good thing is that I got  a lot of alone time.. kidlets and Ryan went to hockey and I was hibernating picking and packing orders :).  Sistahs, thank you so much for your orders.. I am OVERWHELMED!  I am trying my best to get through them but most won’t be until next week.. so if you are in a rush for your order please please email me and let me know!  I am trying to go in the order that they came in

Ok so a few shots from this week.  If you follow me on instagram, then you would have seen these.. if not, you will get a chuckle .. seriously you should follow me on instagram. I have fun posts if i do say so myself LOL.  I just love looking at other people’s goodies and photos.. Instagram and Candy Crush.. my two weaknesses.. and if I don’t pass 125 soon I am gonna pull my hair out!

Ok so look at the inside of my birthday card from Ryan… Jayden noticed something just wasn’t right here.. do you see it? LOL.  Think Ryan was in a rush when he bought it? LOLOL.  Well he got me back by saying I don’t read his cards because I didn’t even notice.  hmph.

and now for my roses I got (two toned.. gorgeous!).. and the carefully folded up wrapping paper they came in.. wasn’t sure if I loved the paper more for collage or the flowers LOL.. Im a paper addict what can I say LOL
