The push I needed.

This weekend was the online SIS event, which I wish I had participated in more then I did, but I did what I could:) I played along in three challenges, and here they are:

This one was for "So you think you can Scrap" Jeannie's challenge. My category was "Artsy Fartsy" which meant I had to use paint, glimmer mist(you really cant see it) only one patterned paper, and no Thickers, stickers, any letters except only if you use them as a mask(which is what I did with this layout) Oh and P.S this photo was actually taken by Mandi while at Sisiversary in Tenn this past June.

"Talk to me nerdy" was for Jen G's challenge "Pick a word". She made up these sheets of words in different fonts that you could print out and use on a layout. I thought that "Talk to me nerdy" was perfect for a picture of my boyfriend. There have been times I have Skyped people and they say "why are their G.I Joe's hanging up behind you?" Well you see my boyfriend collects comic books and action figures(help!!!!!!!!!!!!) So talk to me nerdy worked perfectly for him.

Oh man, I was so tempted to use Gesso and paint on this one, but I didn't. This one was for Jen G's "Rock, Paper, Scissors" challenge. You were to use any junk mail including newspapers, catalog, magazines, etc. I used a catalog and newspaper clippings. I had alot of fun with this because I have not done a collage like this probably since High School!!! That's 11 years ago. I think I may have to make some more.

I had a good time joining in on some of the festivities, although I did miss the Cyber-oke on Friday!


So let's see. Ok, I need a Halloween costume idea. I am thinking something fun, something not to extreme so that I can wear it on the train(we will be going to a get together party of sorts in Queens). I was thinking about being Allison(pre makeover) from The Breakfast club.


I love her character soooooo very much.

I have been enjoying Jay Z's new album!! haha. I have not listened to rap in like a year. I sometimes add it on to my ipod, but only older school stuff, I am not into the whole new rap scene. Of course my favorite song is Empire State of Mind

*there is some explicit lyrics in this clip*




I have been enjoying the HBO series "Bored to death" with Jason Schwartzman. I happen to love it! I mean, come on, Jason is in it:)



You can get the first episode for free over on I tunes.

Ok, time to do something more with my day, I have ATC cards to finish and I am jumping on the band wagon with Mad men. My boss let me borrow the first season.
