Happy Valentine's Day Ya'LL!!
Sweet Robert got me exactly what I wanted! An iPod!! Not just any iPod, the ORANGE iPod nano!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!
How Cool is that!?! So I took it to work yesterday and listened to The Princess Bride- S. Morgenstern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure. I am a Princess Bride NUT!! I have 3 copies of the movie on DVD and 3 different copies of the book!
I forget how short that book is... or how tedious my job is at the moment... I love my job, it just gets boring sometimes. So while I was weighing out beakers and pipetting sample into said beakers, I heard the entire story in less than 4 hours! I'm so glad I downloaded Twilight, too!!
Kate thinks she needs a Pink nano now...

Now for the Valentine's Day FUN stuff!!!
My friend Erin , over at Inky Smiles and Stamper Storage have been helping each other with major dejunking of our creative spaces over the past few weeks. Her closet and my alcove area have been giving each other a run for their money for the mess…. We’ve been sharing photos of the progress and one day I showed her the pic of my InkStak. She was peering at the pic and noticed that I had some rather interesting “non ink” type items hidden away in my InkStak. “Interesting,” she thought, “more than just ink… hrmmmm.”
So, Erin at Inky Smiles, and I came up with a brilliant idea!! We are going to have a combined contest where TWO winner(s) will EACH receive TWO Close To My Heart- never been opened - paper packs from MY personal stash and SUPER AWESOME ERIN is including 2 gift certificates for $15.00 off the purchase of an InkStak (one for each winner) to help you “store more stuff”!
I have been doing a lot of cleaning and realized that I have way too much stuff!!!!! Yes, you can tell your significant other that Amaryllis has too much...No, that doesn't mean she is stopping the shopping!!
So, I love my InkStak!! It makes me smile! It is so handy to have my inks that close to my workspace-- now that my work space is cleaned off and can actually be used. Next stop, the kitchen table!
I must admit that my InkStak does a little more than just hold my ink pads... It also holds a box of tooth picks, important in every crafter's tool box, or InkStak, whatever! I have glitter, and perfume, and sunblock, and 3x5 photos from my husband's mission to Brazil 13 years ago--yes, I know I am way behind! Markers, lip gloss, some embellishment tape from 7Gypsies on a colored pencil. AAA batteries are a must, right?! I have a bag of white Bigger Brads (CTMH), some pens, my spare car key that I need to have re-programmed so I can actually use it! I also have some coasters from Outback Steakhouse, pliers, a ruler, blank coasters, a AA battery and wire cutters. There is also a pair of scissors & a deck of cards. The deck of cards is important. One day they will be a deck of memories... One down, fifty-one to go! And we're almost there... I also have a sponge, a pen size hand sanitizer, and some dangle accessories- for ribbon maybe?.. Lotion and a hammer. Oh, there are also 61 stamp pads in my InkStak!
Can you find them all?
This is what you must do to enter the contest:

HI, sending an email. Hope they don't have to be all right :=)
Shooting you and email. So hard to see :=)
I'm too blind to see so I can't enter the contest. But I wanted to send you a comment to tell you that I, too, am a Princess Bride nutcase!! My daughter and I both love the movie and can quote so much of it. We get together once a year at Thanksgiving and watch it together. What a silly thing for a mother and daughter to do. I've also read all the Twilight books and adore them. I haven't gotten to see the movie yet but I will.

I entered yesterday but wanted to come here and post. This was a hard, hard, hard contest! I couldn't even find all 61 ink pads. As I mentioned in my email, it's hard enough when you have aging eyes, but even hard to see anything on this little laptop screen. Still, it was fun to try to guess at what was what in the pic. :-)
oh what fun sending a email :) ty
hmm couldnt get ur email :(
