Update to craft room!

This one I'm really excited about. Do you all remember when I first posted pictures of my scraproom how I had the cork board and  dry erase board in front of my desk. Well I absolutely loved them, the problem was the only way to attach it to the was was with adhesive and for some reason that just didn't want to hold to my walls so it keep falling down. So this is what I came up with:

3 Jetmax magnetic boards. The middle one I pained with chalkboard paint so I can write project due dates etc on it.

Valentines Day Pins

I made these last month and sent them to my stampin up club members as a little holiday gift. I thought I had posted them on here but just realized I didn't so I figured I would now.

Supplies:
Love Bandit Stamp Set - Stampin Up
Staz on Black ink
Bic Markers
Domino's
Clear coat spray
fine glitter
pin backs.

For detailed directions on how to make these please see the post I did on the Christmas one's I made.

Blog Award.

A few weeks ago Karen from http://karens-kakes-krafts.blogspot.com/ (One of my new favorite blogs, she's very talented not only with paper but with cakes. Please make sure you check her out) awarded me with this great blog award. With all that's been going on between my job and home life I have not had a chance to post it until tonight, but things are starting to slow and I've wanted to get this up!

I find it kind of funny that the night Karen was awarded this award was the night the Patriots where knocked out of the running for the Superbowl, and tonight as I post I sit here watching 2 other teams play in the Superbowl, wishing Karen and I were cheering for our Favorite team the New England Patriots. Oh well there's always next yr right? And hey, Brady did get MVP!
Now I am suppose to tell you 8 things that you don't know about me, so here goes......

1. I miss living in the country
2. I was a gymnast when I was younger
3. My favorite candy is Reese peanut butter cups so yummy.
4. My dogs are completely spoiled
5. I have 2 dogs, 2 lizards, a bunny and now a bunch of fish.
6. I'm a big people watcher and always know what's going on around me
7. I love going to the drive ins in the summer
8. I enjoy riding on the back of my hubby's motorcycle and I'm working on getting on my motorcycle license.
