Hello! Once again, I had the most awesome day! First, meeting up with my friend Kim at Joann's for a spot of shopping (some Tim Holtz Foundation Feet and some yards of fabric for my pal Dy) and Kim's kindness of Uniball Signo pens which I have been needing badly! Kim, you are so very kind to meet me and to bring those gorgeous pens!! Thank You, Thank You! Next, it was over to the Heart Of Texas Studio for a tour of their amazing laser cutting machine!
When I was but a child many years ago (I don't want to talk about it!) we toured Mrs. Baird's Bakery. The bakery that supplied the Texas grocery stores with bread! I was so amazed by the process...the same thing happened today when touring Pam and Richard's Business. Same cool electrified, amazed and in awe feeling.
Then it was home to finish up my Dylusional pages using Dyan's new Dylusions stamp sets (LOVE!!!). As always, I could have played in my journal all day! So relaxing and fun!
Well, here's some pictures...
I honestly hear the chipboard calling my name! I'm off! So many things to create so little time right!
Have an awesome weekend Y'all! Thanks so much for coming by!

You've had a busy day my friend! All in a good way of course. Your journalling is lovely - so bright and cheerful (it reminds me of you) :)
ReplyDeleteI love your little guy! Is he your alter ego?
ReplyDeleteWonderful to "hear" the excitement in your words! Makes me smile that you are happy. Fun page. Wonderful color combo.
ReplyDeleteIt was my pleasure to meet you for shopping. I wanted you to have those pens because I know how frustrating it is when you can't release the MOJO because you don't have the right supplies. And look what you went and did!! A beautiful journal page with brilliant colors and a mini Jim. I had to laugh at the Mrs. Bairds bread analogy become somehow, for you, I think the smell of chipboard out shines the smell of Mrs. Bairds bread baking!! LOL. Glad you had a terrific day! Tell Cesar I am anxious to teach him arm knitting SOON!!
ReplyDeleteI love your journal pages!!! AmaZing!!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic journal pages, Jim.

ReplyDeleteAnother totally fun spread...such happy colors! I NEED Dyan's new spray inks...can't wait to get my hands on them and get all inky. Sounds like a fabulous day, too!! So good of Kim to help you out with your white pen dilemma!!
ReplyDeleteYou definitely rocked the Dylusions xxx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pages, Jim! I don't think it's possible to be "down" when using Dyan's inks - they are an instant mood boost. I'm looking forward to finding the new colors at StampFest on Saturday.
ReplyDeleteLove your journal pages! I can't wait to get my hands on the NEW Dylusions goodies! I know that I need to have all of them!!! LOL! I hope you have a wonderful Sunday! I just know that you are up to your elbows in chipboard!!! Hugs!!!
