UIU Week 12 !!!

Bet you thought I forgot again didnt you ! LOL Nope I have just been doing the great clean up of 2012!!!!! I have posted before that I had to move back in with my folks and so my craft room is also my bed room. Well it has gotten out of hand to the point that I hated craftting. I didnt want ot do anything at all!! I cant have that because art and crafting is like air to me and i was dying with out it!!

So this week there was no UIU crafts but no spending on craft stuff. I did have to get a bookcase but that will not count because I had to replace the one I had. The one I had in storage broke some how :(

SO HERE WE GO ( the pics are crappy but you will get the idea)

UIU weeks 9, 10, and 11

Hiya everyone,

I am sooooooooooooooooooooo SORRY that I missed so many posts. I have had a lot of crazy / drama /sadness going on. All I can say is real life sucks some times. I am slowly getting back on track and I will be posting again.

I have been good with UIUing my stuff but I did get some things.

#1 was Glossy Accents – I wanted to add a little something to a box swap that I was in and I thought that would be the best thing. I never had that stuff so I treated my self to a bottle. The funny thing is I didn’t use it on the box because it just wouldn’t fit right. LOL but I do have some plans for it.

#2 I got a Crop-a-dile. I have always wanted it one but always pushed it off. I have the old school hammer setter so I didn’t need it. We I will be working on a challenge piece and I will need to use A LOT of eyelets and since I now live with my folks again and have to have my craft “room” in my bedroom the old school hammer is not a good thing. I craft a lot at night and hubs is right there sleeping and then the folks are right next door (see the prob) so that is not happing. I gave in and got one but I do not feel bad for that because it is a tool that I will use a lot.

#3 This is the BIG one! I got my electric cutter!! WOOOO HOOOOO Now this I should feel bad about but I don’t and why you ask well 2 things, 1 it was on my UIU board as on of the things that I really wanted and 2 the deal I got. I ended going with the Pazzle inspiration over the silhouette cameo because if you get it from Pazzle site you can sign up for 2 years for there images and the machine will only be $99. NOW I know that the monthly fee of there plan will end up costing me the full price of the machine but I look at it as a payment plan and I will be getting a ton of images for free!

I know that one day I will get a die cutter too because they each have there purpose but for now I am good with this.

I still can not believe how strong UIU is going still after 11 weeks!!!! And I am proud of each of you. I may not comment much on blog post BUT I DO READ THEM ALL. And it real touches my heart to know that so many stand behind this Crazy UIU!!

I will be putting up a few posts with all my projects that I have been working on and they are UIU but I just wanted to make this the update post. So keep a look out to see what I have been up to and again thank you so much
