Life just gets in the way sometimes...

So I apologize...it has been almost a month since my last confession...wait..I mean blogging.
Life has just seemed to get in the way! With unpacking stuff from our move, to work, to practice and performances for "All Shook Up"...I just haven't had anytime to do any crafting, let alone sitting still. I was sick for over a week with a massive sinus infection- which I didn't do much of anything but lay in bed sleeping. Somewhere in all the madness I was able to create a few cards for the important people involved with the show. (these are a few weeks late of posting, but here they are!)
Since the show was 1950s themed, I used the cricut cartridge "Nifty Fifties". It's one of the first times I did cards with cricut cartridges. Now, right now, I'm mad at Cricut- all that mumbo jumbo junk with sueing people left and right and being super mean to every little guy in site. However when I made these cards, it was before I was informed of their evil corporation status. So I apologize in advance my Boycott Provocraft friends...this was before I knew all about that.
But I did do 2 cards without cricut cartridges, so I'll show those off first, followed by the cricut ones. The cricut ones turned out cute...I love the shoes! Anyways, enjoy my belated cards!

I have a 3 day weekend this Easter weekend (I get monday off), but that's because I work Tuesday-Saturday, so hopefully I'll get some cardmaking done (like my card club's cards!). Have a Happy Easter Everyone! Hugs!

Setting the stage

Sorry I've been MIA recently...I know I know, I say that a lot, but I have been busy busy busy with work and the show I was in. Last night was our final performance, so I finally have some free time to hop in and fill everyone in.
I was in an original musical, written by a local music writer, called "Week Between the Holidays" and it was part of the Philadelphia Fringe Festival. We had sold out shows for all 3 shows, and the two evening performances were so packed that they sold "standing room" tickets towards the end. lol. Besides the fact that I got sick (stuffy/runny nose and blocked ears, but luckily I never lost my voice) from Thursday all the way through all the shows, they went well. There will be a soundtrack recorded here soon with the original cast (hopefully I'll be well by the time that happens) that anyone can purchase. More information will be at the website soon, www.philadelphiaperformanceproject.com
Anyways, here's a few pictures for the road to hold you over and giggle over. I ended up going through basically my entire card stash of cards I've made to give to the cast and crew, so I think I need to get started on making more cards to replenish it! haha
Here is an article in one of the local papers about the show: springfield sun article

(Have I mentioned I think I look crazy in these pictures...lol...but then again the character is a little crazy)

More pictures are on the website and on that news article, and on the show's facebook.
Have a great weekend and enjoy the change in weather that is coming our way! Hooray! I love fall!
Later all!
