WELCOME TO BLOGABELLA

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?

Ok how about some inspiration from our baberoonis to get some JOOCES flowing?

So will this keep you going for a coupla days?

p.s. school’s out today and I don’t have to make lunches anymore!!! YIPPEEEE!  oh ya. there’s camp.  hmph.

Mwah to da sistahs who will shop til they drop!

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

Jayden and I had pedicures 🙂

and I have been doodling and fell IN LOVE with these little whistlers that fell out of my pen..

Ok just wanted to say hello and check in with my sistahs 🙂  hope it’s nice where you are.. I am melting where I am..LOL

mwah to da sistahs who love when I blog 🙂
