I-rock Rocks!

So I got to try out my lovely new pink buddy this weekend and she is FABULOUS!  Love her!  After I scrounged around for some batteries..which I stole from the Tv remote and may have forgotten to put back before Anthony got home and wondered where the hell the batteries went, I finally went to work.  First I put my gems down in my design on my paper.  Then I turned her on and held the button down for 15 seconds to get her to the right temperature.  Then I put the tip of the I-rock on to the top of the gem and held for about 10 seconds.  I noticed that obviously the bigger the gem you are using the longer you need to hold it down for.  Also if you are using it on top of chipboard it seemed to take longer no matter what the size.  I continued doing this until my design was completely secured.  I really don't feel like it was that time consuming.  It takes longer to stitch things so I thought it was a great new way to bling up my page.  I'll post my layout on here after I take a picture of it tonight!

Sigh

There seems to be a lot of death and sickness going along lately.  Early this week I found out one of my residents passed away.  Then Anthony's cousin was told he has a very short time to live due to cancer.  And today I received an email from our corporate office that one of our employees will not be returning and is only expected to live for a year at most.  Makes you think...:(  Also makes me want to scrap all my memories :)

On a brighter note, Nicole is coming over tomorrow for a Scrappy Saturday and Susie is coming over next Saturday for some more scrappiness.  I bought the I-rock yesterday!  Super excited to try her out tomorrow.  Don't worry, when I finish my layouts I will definitely post :)  P.S.  I did these two last year for my friend Amber's Wedding.  I just found them today and thought I'd post.

Long time..no type

So..I've been definitely slackin on this whole bloggin' thing..you know just about a year behind. But I won't bore you with what has gone on over the past year. Looking at my friend Kelly's blog lately has made me feel like I need to blog about my scrappiness. So I am starting.

Hi, my name is Angela and I am addicted to cropchocolate.com. Whew..there I said it. I am constantly refreshing my phone or computer to see if a new deal has come up. It is rather ridiculous. I'm also obssessed with the new Cricut Imagine that is coming out. It looks fabulous..though I'm not sure how I can afford it..but I will think of something :)
