I had a PHENOM weekend i must say.  Had THE BESTEST class with DINA WAKLEY at BIZZY B’s over the weekend.  We had such a great time.. got to hang with friends and just let loose and create…  I was SOOOO dirty.. and messy and inky.. and loved every minute of it.

Here are some pics I instagrammed this weekend and if you don’t follow me on Instagram, then here you have it 🙂

I was SOOO Inspired when I got home that I started to paint.. and came up with her 🙂

Then I took my GIANT vintage ledger and started to spray and collage 🙂

An amazing weekend was had 🙂

WEIGHT WATCHERS.

Joined this morning and committed this time.  I will be instagramming my journey :).. I am TOTALLY doing this.  Yup.. mhmmm.. yes siree…
