Round and Round

My week was CRAZY!!  Workwise, it was super productive, for which I am happy.  I really felt in the groove at work.  Got a lot done, even though I have a bit of work to do this weekend.  We had an incredible speaker at the sales meeting I attended, his name was Marlon Shirley, an Olympic track and field athlete.  He was truly inspirational and really spoke to me.  Listening to him strengthened my resolve to seriously attack this weight loss thing.  He is one of the fastest people in the WORLD.  Very incredible.   So, thanks to Marlon for his inspiration, even though he might not know it!  Here is Marlon's website, Marlon Shirley.

On the personal side, My Daughter's Wish, my local scrapbook store, had a HUGE Open House where everyone was invited to come for food and to do ATC cards with the Wish Chicks, the design team.  I might have posted this before, I am one of the Wish Chicks!  Yeah!!  We all made ATC's then did them as make and takes.  We were PACKED with people, every 20 minutes we got another group.  I had sooo much fun!!  It was great to meet all the customers and for them to see us and our work.  Sheri, the owner, did a fab job putting on the evening.  I KNOW everyone had a FABULOUS time.  I hope we do it again!  This was my card...I know, I know, not my usual brights.  I didn't go to the Design Team meeting because of the flu, so I got a leftover baggie of stuff!  I loved it though, I rocked the muted colors!! (Julie L-B, if you read this, aren't you proud of me for rocking the muteds? LOL!)

Today is Saturday!! I had a really productive workweek so I am feeling good today!! I do have a bit of work to finish this weekend but that's no biggie!!  I got a bit of sleep and then I got to SCRAP!!!  I needed some creative time!  I wanted to make a mini book of a girls trip, but a STAR I had gotten from the Cocoa Daisy kit last year was calling out to me!  I altered it with some Scenic Route and Love, Elsie papers along with some Bazzil, Imaginisce, and Lil Davis Flowers and topped it off with some Heidi Swapp Bling!  I love the way it came out, very understated and awesome!  I am giving this away as a gift to one of my dear friends.  I might be tempted to keep it for myself though!  LOL!!  You probably want to see a pic, right?

I am off to do a bit of work before doing more SCRAPPING!!  Sooo excited!!
