Creative Friday - The Results

One of the big highlights of my trip to Salt Lake was taking part in Jill & Michelle's Creative Friday. These girls are onto something, I tell ya. I will post more about my trip and all the great blogging fun in another post. I have seen lots of comments about the cards I made while I was there and thought I would do a little post about that. This is the craftaholic blog, for goodness sakes!

Jill recommended that I stop by a great craft/scrapbook store called Paper Creations while I was in Salt Lake. All I can say is WOW! That store was beyond incredible. Lots of gorgeous things there. I wanted to pick up a few things so I could work on a few cards while I was at Creative Friday. I picked a color palette and as you can see from the results, was able to craft several different cards.

back home, back to the doctor and back to blogging

It's been exactly 2 months since my last post. Far too long, I know. It's been a busy couple of months. Highlights since my last post:

• Business trips to Williamsburg, VA, Cincinatti, OH and most recently Salt Lake City, UT - more to come on that shortly.
• My BFF got married on March 8.
• My husband celebrated his 40th birthday with a big birthday bash.

I'm feeling pretty worn out from all my travelling. I returned home Sunday from Salt Lake feeling pretty bad. I stayed home sick yesterday and went to the doctor where she confirmed I have a sinus infection. I had a steroid injection and she wrote scrips for prednizone and 10 days or antibiotics. I'm feeling much better today and am getting back in the swing at work.

After my GREAT visit with fellow bloggers last week, I have a renewed interest in bl0gging. I have missed you guys and I am looking forward to getting back in touch and sharing of thoughts and ideas. Hope to hear from you soon!
