Well for those of you who read my blog and are doing the boodles 28 in 28 here is # 28 early. I couldn't decide on one challenge, I had a few picked out being so far in the month, a few of mine did get taken along the way but these two are still left so I combined them, you only have to do one but feel free to do both. The first one is easy you must use a die cut we all have them or have a machine that can make them, mine is the swirl ropy thing (tech. term) going down the side. The second one might take some thought,but those of you who know me know I'm not a journaler, so what I did I took song lyrics and changed them to fit but then HAND Journaled them on the page, now it doesn't have to be fancy but you must hand write your journaling on the page. It could be a poem or your favorite quote, or if you are good at being sappy wing it, I'm not an emotional person, or should I say it is very hard for me to put my feelings into words, I am a very emotional person.

Well I haven't posted in a while, I've been busy. I have managed to get some stuff done but have forgotten to take pictures to show you, I'll try to do that today. I did think that I would show you the Mess behind the "My Creative Mess" it's kinda scary that I get anything done in here, but here's a quick look at my room. I know I'm very lucky to have my own room to keep my stuff in and I should respect it more by keeping it clean, I just can't seem to function very well in an organized space, I thrive in caos.

Well for those of you who read my blog from KnK and want to get a head start on my challenge here it is, use up your swap stash. It doesn't matter to me what it is you have total freedom with that just something you swapped, I have tons of the stuff, just the other day I found my big bag of chip board from our last swap. :0 I used Fastenators, brads eyelets, ribbon, flowers, and chipboard all from swaps I have been in, I think I'm swapped out for a while. Here is my sample.

For those very few of you how read my blog that aren't a member of KnK, we are doing our own version of 28 in 28, and I am in charge of day 11. 28 layouts in 28 days, so far I haven't kept up but I am working on them, so I hope no one feels slided, if I don't get to their right away.

Well I know it has been a while since I have blogged, but I am not as bad as some of my friends (Kelly November really). I have been busy working at the store a lot while Cass has been away at CHA buy all kinds of new fun stuff for me to play with, now I can't wait for it to start coming in. Hopefully some will come in this week before I go cropping with some of my friends on Sunday. I'm hoping to catch up on my 28 in 28 at KnK we are doing our own version I think I'm on 4, but as of right now we are only on 6 I think so I'm not that far behind, wait no today is 7. I'm trying I really am but I also need to get some classes done, I have a Ragged Ann book on my desk now, my mind is going with so many ideas there just aren't enough hours in the day to do them all, then with Cass' Mother being ill I might be working more at the store, if she needs me I'll be there.
Well here are my Layouts so far for the 28 in 28. As some of you may or may not know I really do not like challenges so for me to do these is a real struggle, so if I do not do your challenge don't take it personally, I am trying to get to all of them in some form or another.
