TECC27 – Bold and Personal

August 1st, 2008

So have you seen Mama Mia yet???  If not, then grab some girlfriends and go this weekend!  I went with two friends and we laughed like crazy.  I think I’d like to see it again.  My advice to you, is not to think about it or wonder if anyone you know wants to go or to worry that everyone is too busy.  Here’s what you do:

  1. Check the movie listings and find a time and place that would work for you – maybe an early evening show on a week night or even a Saturday afternoon matinee.
  2. Send out an e-mail to ALL of your friends (even people you think would be too busy to go) telling them the time and place and asking if they’d like to join you.
  3. Enjoy the movie with friends. 

When it comes to spending time with friends and having a good laugh I say JUST DO IT!!!

It’s Friday and time for another one of Taylor’s fun sketch challenges (cupcakes not required).  Be sure to play along with us and post a link over on Taylor’s blog for a chance to be her featured stamper or to win prizes.  Get all the deets at Taylored Expressions.

My card this week is bold and simple.

A 4.25″ square Taken with Teal base is layered with dp from the Junkitz Salsa 6×6 pad and the main image is a .99 Imaginisce stamp from eclectic Paperie colored with Copics and highlighted with stickles.  I totally CASEd the idea for the sentiment from Lana (see her card here).  She mentioned that since her name is unusual she never finds personalized stuff with her name and when I read that I said *I KNOW!* (a la Monica Geller).  Although my name is not terribly unusual, the spelling is (no *e*!!) and as a kid I could never find anything with my name on it so I still LOVE personalized items.  The JustRite Monogram stamper is perfect for this!

Speaking of the Just Rite Stamper, have you checked out the Product Focus Review on SCS?  I was thrilled to be on the team this month and have the opportunity to write a review.  You can check it out here.

It’s time to check out what the rest of the Cupcake Crew has cooked up – let’s blog hop:

Ana Wohlfahrt: Ink A Stamp

Stephanie Hargis: Steph’s Stampin’ Stuff

Vicki Chrisman: This Art that makes me Happy

Monika Davis: M.A.D. Stamper

Lynn Mercurio: Stamperosity

Here’s TECC27 – and yes the circle is supposed to be cut off at the bottom.  I had to call Taylor and ask her while she was out enjoying som yummy cheesecake.

I hope you have a fabulous weekend.  I’m looking forward to going to see the taping of Million Dollar Password with Regis Philbin on Saturday.  Two of the girls at work today had never heard of the game show Password.  Oh my word, did that ever make me feel old!  Password was one of my favorites and I even had the at-home-edition.  Any other Password fans out there?

Thanks for stopping by!

    Fabulous card, Jami. Love your flower image, and your bright cheerful colors really make it pop! I’m having blogger issues, so my card won’t go live until they have the problem figured out. *not happy with Blogger today*

    You did a fabulous job with Taylor’s sketch!

    Jami, you crack me up . . . so I’m emailing you — you wanna come to Texas to see Mama Mia with me? 😀 Love the sentiment you created with your JS Stamper — I’ll have to keep that in mind for my Alixandra (also with an “I”, no “E”) LOL! Smooches!
