Howdy, Friends!

I’ve been behind the scenes, working away on more videos and other goodies.  I’m not going to bore you with the details, cuz alot of it has to do with MAKEUP! 

I have an upcoming photoshoot with my absolute FAVORITE client.  We are also going to be rockin out a video or two in the near future.  So, be looking for that!

Speaking of videos, I just got permission from an up & coming [is that how you say that?] musician to use one of his songs in one of my pieces…VERY happy about that.  I’ve always loved working with underground and/or new musicians, so I’m going to be on the hunt for more folks to feature the music of in my projects.

As you can tell, I’ve backed off a little from digital scrapbooking, and have turned the spotlight back to video production.  Yes, I know:  it’s very unlike me to jump around like that! *extreme sarcasm*

So, that’s the news for now…big things poppin…

So, as I’m sure you have noticed…I have a new theme!!! It’s still not quite finished - the header is absolutely temporary, but YAY!!! I think this one will stick [until the next time].

There is much to talk about. I went on quite the digiscrap shopping spree over the weekend in honor of National Scrapbooking Day. There were sales everywhere I turned, all over the net. I managed to keep my spending just over $100, but considering how relatively inexspendy [yes, I just made that word up!] digi kits are, that’s quite the haul. I tried my best to clean out some of my fave designer stores, hoping to put myself in a position to keep up on their designs from here forward [or so I say].

With that said, you KNOW I had to get some new Christina Renee goodies [although, I already own most of her store…but there were a couple new ones I *needed*]. Annie Manning was next on my list: I bought most of the things I was missing from her store. I also bought the limited edition kit she has over at Scrap Artist this month. On a side note - I just found out this weekend that Annie lives about 40 minutes from me!!! Woohoo!!! We hope to have coffee together one day, as time permits. Ok, next up, I grabbed the rest of Jofia Devoe’s store. I can’t WAIT to play with the Diamond Rain!!! Oh, yeah…I bought a pretty big collection from Vera Lim, too.

I think that pretty much covers it. I did buy a very cool Wire Alpha from Weeds & Wildflowers, but nothing else there. By the time I got to their store, I was broke! They will definitely be on my list to stock up on soon.

In other news, I took my baby son to see Ironman this weekend…ummm, it ROCKED!!! But then, I’m sure most everyone else went to see it, too, and know this. Why did I think I could fly for the rest of the day?

Anyways, I have some video projects [aside from my car blogs] on the back burner that I hope to get posted soon. The weather here in Oregon has been lovely, so I’ll be out shooting more. I hope to get a gallery up on my site before long, too. *sigh* So many projects, so little time [away from my day job].

Until next time…

I’ve been incredibly lax about this website for many months now. To all my friends and *fans*, I apologize for that. I wasn’t really sure what direction I wanted to take with my website, which has been historically true for me with this and many other sites I’ve tried to get off the ground. I have a lot of interests and I’ve never quite known how to encompass them all into one website. I’m beginning to get re-inspired and re-focused, so I just wanted to slap together a quick update entry to let you know that I will be fully functional very soon.

Today, I will work on getting some of my poetry re-posted [from the LAST website crash I experienced - completely self-inflicted], and I’m thinking about updating the look & feel of the site as well. While I still enjoy digital scrapbooking, it’s just not the ONLY thing I want this site to be about, so I’m drumming up a theme that is much more universal for me.

To all my new friends and *fans*, WELCOME…I hope you enjoy my many things to come!
