I am in shock still over what all happened yesterday .. You all have know that I am reading a awesome book INSIDE EVERY WOMAN BY VICKIE MILAZZO well guess who posted to my blog yesterday ???? Mrs Vickie Milazzo herself .. Look under the comments on Oct 4th and see what she wrote .. WOW I couldnt believe it and funny thing is that when I seen her name I thought it looked very famiular Never guessing it was her until I actually read her post .. WOW I am amazed with her book so much so I am going to be looking for another one to give to Shelli at regionals this Saturday .. This is how much ILove this book girls ..
Then low and behold look what else I got yesterday .. a Beautiful Thank you note from Lisa .. One of my winners from the drawing I had awhile back She sent me this Thank you note thanking me for the goodies and get this Her card marks the very 1st one I have ever recieved from Hawaii YUP Lisa girl lives in Hawaii WOW huh? she dry embossed her card its sooooo much prettier IRL ( In real life ) my scan does not do it justice … Thank you Lisa ..
I think I figured out how to use less bandwidth at least I think I may have…. I am uploading my photos at 250 pixels and NOT allowing pop ups ( even though I believe you can still click to see a larger version of the upload .. and I didnt add any smileys yesterday I am going to see if this keeps the bandwidth down we will see.. Thanks for all your comments on my blog everyone .. what I ment the other day was that I am allowed only so much bandwidth each month and when I go over this ( which I am getting close) I may be charged for going over . and rolling back to ZERO .. what I ment about that was each month my bandwidth rolls back to 0 ..so I get the bandwidth gigabytes each month and I am trying to keep it under the allowed GB’s… On the 17th of each month I wont lose any of my blog postings ( Unless I delete them myself to free up space also) what I get is set back to ZERO for my GB on my bandwidth .. I am sooo sorry I didnt explain this better when I posted .. I have no plans on giving up on my blog I just wish I had More GB’s for bandwidth OR I wish I knew a way to not use so much .I just dont want to upgrade my blog account ..I am very happy with the package I have .SO keep your ears peeled if you hear anything about this subject please let me know I would be interested in how to keep my bandwidth usage down ..
Yesterday I got everything ready for Phillys workshop on Thursday very excited about that .. pretty much all seasoned stampers are going to be there with a few newbies possible.. so in the middle of getting things pre cut and oragnized I found myself getting side tracked in my own stamping .. I made this card for my Glitter Queen yesterday and will be going out today for her "Toot your horn on Tuesday " Carol will be getting this card ..I seen in a magazine the other day a really cute way to make a money card/ gift card holder so I had to try it with the inside of this card .. then I also seen a really cute card on the SU! web site a few days ago and had to try it on the front card also ..For the front I used the 3/4 circle punch and punched out 1/2 holes to caddle the alphadots ( retired ) then added dimenstionals for a boost for SMILE. The inside I cut a corner panel at 4"
then used adhesive on the left side and bottom of this panel this left a open pocket for me to incert Money or in this case for my sample a gift card ( Gift card is for my use only ..I got a few of them ( blank of course ) just for this type of thingy .. ya know to measure ,showcase an idea etc..) I used everything for this card from the friends & flowers Hostess simply scrappin kit ..Then I also decorated her large opened end envelope ( love these ) For this card I cut at 9X8 and scored on the 8"side at 4" fits perfectly in these new envelopes from SU! Congrates Carol this is going out today to you ..
Heres are 2 great quotes from Vickies book:
Page 125~ Integrity is Fragile, if you compromise even in a small way, you become broken . – Vickie L Milazzo
page 126~ Integrity has the final say in whether we will rise or decline, Be whole or broken. When uncompromising integrity is our guide, Success is Authentic, and the Joy of success is Authentic.
Until later … Happy Stampin!!
