That is the giveaway!! It's an 18x4.5 inch 2 layer expression from Uppercase Living in the colors of your choice! Standard colors only, no shimmer or etched glass. These are crazy easy to apply and a very fun and quick way to spruce up your creative space.

This is no April Fool's joke my friends!! Value of the expression is $15.95 not including shipping, which I'm also paying for!! It'll come straight to your door from UPS. How's that for awesome?? To see our colors go here to see your color choices live, you can even enter your wall color to make sure it looks good with your paint.

MIA


Ok, not really but it seems like I never get on much lately!! I'm incredibly busy with school and clinicals at the moment I can't see straight. As of Tuesday afternoon I had 26 patient care reports to write. 4 of those being ambulance calls which average about 5 pages, PER CALL! The remainder are hospital at 2 a piece. This coming up weekend kicks off a run of 9 straight days of school and clinical work.

I will be here, don't fret! I even have a couple giveaways up my sleeve too :)

I've received all my demonstrator materials and I'm ready to get started! We're currently having a Buy 2 Get 1 Free sale and it's good on any number of expressions.

Our expressions come in different sizes and if you don't want to stick them on the wall we have accessories that you can purchase so they're not directly on your wall and you can move them to which ever room you'd like!

win a Nikon D80!

Alexis Miller over at Alexis Miller's Photography Tips is giving away a very slightly used Nikon D80! I enter blog giveaways all the time and this is one I'd really love to win. I sold all my gear to pay for paramedic school, it would be great to get back shooting again!

more blocks!

2 more blocks for the pinwheel quilt along done!! Before my gramma died i was trying to figure out what to do with this quilt. I debated on keeping it, giving it away, selling it, then I decided that I was going to give it to her because she was always cold and it will end up being a perfect lap size for her. Obviously now I can't give it to her but I am going to keep it but name it Grandma's Garden. She was so proud of her flowers and since Verna has a lot of floral prints it's perfect!




And Julie, over at Jaybird Quilts asked how you store your wip's. Well, this is my way! The large containers are under $3 at Walmart and the shoeboxes are about $1 each. I keep all the fabric for the quilt in the box, as well as the pattern. I put a label on the box, start date, and the name of the fabric. I will also put any other things specifically for that quilt in there like thread color if it's specific.


and yes the kona has been found!!! it was in a laundry basket of clean clothes under a blanket. yea, i'm still trying to figure that one out.

retail therapy

I indulged in some retail therapy in the last couple days because we very unexpectedly lost my grandmother on Friday morning. She was my last remaining biological grandparent and it's hit me hard, I miss her so much it hurts. She passed away 1 year and 21 days after my grandfather, her memorial is this Saturday.

Yesterday class was canceled without any advance notice, we just showed up and there was a note on the door so I headed to the mall and got an outfit for Saturday. Today I headed to Hobby Lobby and got all this (all on sale BTW), and don't you just LOVE that grey floral fabric?!



I also decided to join Uppercase Living as a demonstrator. I had been wanting to do something but I just LOVE all the stuff they have to offer and would gladly splash every wall in my house with their awesomeness so I figured it was only fitting!
