and I’m tired.  I haven’t been sleeping well lately.  Last night I didn’t fall asleep until 2AM or later.  But, then I was wide awake at 7:30 this morning.  That doesn’t cut it for me.  I seriously need more sleep than that.

Any way, I went to a stamp camp today with my friend Connie.  It was fun.  We made four or five projects.  I say four or five because I’m not sure if one project is counted as one or two projects.  Actually, I could say that we made a lot more because one project was actually seven different items in itself.

Confusing?  You should have seen me when I was there.

The first project was embossing a tin box. Yeah, I didn’t know you could stamp on metal either.  To go with that project we made three mini cards and a band for the box.  This is the one that I’m not really sure if it counts as one project or two.  So, whatever.  LOL

Next I went to the coaster frame table. Yeah, I didn’t understand the title either.  I also didn’t understand the directions and had to have someone walk me through step-by-step which was pretty funny because there were about 897 steps to this project.  But, it turned out kind of neat.

Next I made a box.  It was pretty simple, just a box with a lid and a band to hold it together.  Cool.

The last project was my favorite, I think.  It’s also the on that was really sort of seven different projects.  We made a magnetic note pad holder (super simple).  Then we jazzed up a pen and put a magnet on it.  Then we made four magnets.  Finally we framed a sheet of metal to hold all the magnet items.  It’s really cool (although someone made a not so nice comment that all my pieces look the same — uh HELLO it’s called COORDINATING, jeez).

I’d show pictures of my favorite project but, well, I don’t have a camera and you might be getting one for Christmas this year.  LOL

The weather ended up being AWESOME today.  Kind of a bummer that I was in the library at the high school doing my stamping.  Tomorrow I’ll be in a conference all day too so I’ll miss out on the awesome weather again.  Plus, I’m so dang tired I just want to curl up and watch a movie.  So,

Till later…
