Feelin' Crabby!!

Waiting for an email from my sis - need to help her fix an Excel spreadsheet - I'm hungry and the stupid email isn't here yet....how 'bout now? nope, just hit the "send/receive" button again, and no such luck.

I really should just relax - getting keyed up about it really won't make it get here any quicker...so I decided to vent here in my blog...it will at least pass the time - not sure of the entertainment value of my ranting, but I've been feeling bad that I haven't posted in a while... so maybe if I can kill two birds with one stone, everything will be just fine.

So do you suppose it is taking so long because she is in California and I am in New York? Could the time difference be coming into play here? Can you tell I'm grasping at straws at this point? Are you tired of me asking all these asinine questions? Have you stopped reading this yet? Why not?!? I'm actually getting a little bored with this myself, so by all means, stop reading...carry on with your life...nothing to see here...move along

One of my favorites...

Just a quick post - yes, I'm still here and crafting...just not as much as I would like.

Here is a card which was part of the stationery box I made for one of my girlfriends.

Happy Birthday - Alison!

Did you know that yesterday was a national holiday = Miss Alison's birthday!

In honor of the festive event, I altered a cigar box to house her gift card to AC Moore (aka "the holy land"). Of course I photographed it to share with you...

a view from the top

inside the top flap, there are three frogs and her name (just in case she forgets)

the sides are decorated with uplifting words

and finally, the custom made gift card holder (after all, I couldn't just give her the fun money in the envelope you get at the store!)

Almost forgot...I put the cigar box inside a hanging folders box - - like one of these...
