I hope that 2010 has been wonderful for you so far!
I have found a lot to love this year!
1st things 1st....I finally read the Twilight books....it was something I had resisted forever, well, I guess not forever, ha! Anyway, I started the Monday (at work) before New Years Eve and finished last night and CRIED and cried when it was over!
I read the 1st 3 books so fast and then I did NOT want to finish Breaking Dawn, I just didn't want it to be over so I guess that's why I cried........I am SO sad that I can't hang out with Bella and (mostly) Edward anymore, it's just not fair!
I totally love the January Kit of the Month Savor the Journey!
Don't you love it???????? That owl, the polka dots, flowers, puzzle pieces...AHHHHH.....TOO CUTE!Here are a few cards I made with it so far this year that happen to be 3 of my favorite cards I've ever made!
...I see MANY more cards to come using this kit!
This week, the Valentine's Day cards and papers have really been making me happy! Valentine's Day is my favorite card making occasion!
This gorgeous Valentine's Day line Be Loved from My Minds Eye:
and the Cupid Collection from Pink Paislee.
are my favorites so far this year!I came across THIS card by Danielle Lounds this week in my Google Reader and fell in love with it right away! It's so creative in so many ways!
Of course I've seen some clothes I love for Spring, too.....
THIS shirt from New York and Co. is such a beautiful orange color, I have to have it...I didn't buy it yet though...I do have a few NY&Co. gift cards to use but I'm trying to wait til they have more of the new stuff in...it's hard to wait...
And I'm not sure I can wait very long at all before I buy THIS purple sweater....don't you think I need it ASAP?? In fact I may go and get it today....it's too beautiful not to be mine! {I'm so weak aren't I???}
OMG did you see this card by DT member Amber??? Isn't it the CUTEST owl you've ever seen??? Just look at those sweet eyes!
Good hair days are also something I LOVE and I have been having some good hair days if I do say so myself....since Mike got me this Ultra CHI for Christmas. I already had a CHI but it's a 2" and it's too wide for the most part so he bought me a 1" CHI and this one rocks! It's pink and sparkly too so that definitely helps :)
Ok, that is all for this Sunday...I need to get to the tanning bed and to visit a friend and to probably get that purple sweater....LOL!I hope you have a FANTASTIC week! I'll see you next Sunday!
Love, Jimmi
The beginning is the most important part of any work, especially in the case of a young and tender thing; for that is the time at which the character is being formed and the desired impression more readily taken.--Plato

i love your fave posts, Jimmi! always fun to see what's making you tick!
that orange blouse is FABULOUS. but no, i'm not remotely obsessed with orange, nosirreebob!
buy the sweater. :)
and i didn't WANT to get all caught up in the Twilight fandom, but my son has them all and i rented the movie for us, and then i just had to read the books. it didn't take long - very tough to put those things down!
Ok I have to say that I feel the same way you do about the Twilight series! Although I have picked them back up numerous times!
The cards are awesome! I am so loving the stamps that are just so cute!
All of your faves are fab! I am a die-hard Twilight fan. If you haven't read Midnight Sun, you have to. http://stepheniemeyer.com/midnightsun.html It is Twilight from Edward's perspective. SM started writing it and it got leaked so she just put what she had done on her website. Check it out! I love it.
Also, you can always come play along with us at www.twilighttuesday.com.
Beautiful work!!!
Sunday's are a fun day with your posts Jimmi! I luv your favorites...you have fabulous taste in things...I wish I could buy them all!
My son read the first twilight book...for his AR points in english, and he said it was a 'girlie' book, so he doesn't want to read the rest..ha! But I bought the movie and loved it...so now I have to read the books...maybe I'll start tonight!
Thanks for your fab Sunday reviews!
I look forward to your Favorite's post every Sunday, Jimmi! Can't believe you waited this long to read Twilight! Now join the rest of us and read them AGAIN!!
I say get the shirt AND the sweater!
Ok, I feel ashamed at what I'm abotu to say. Since the week of the TWILIGHT release in the movie theater (Nov. 20, 2008) I have read the books 14 times! All 4 of them! Mind you, I put myself on time out from these books for 5 months, and then the hit me with NEW MOON (Nov. 20, 2009)...Can't IMAGINE how many more times I will read them, but each time I do, it is like reading it for the FIRST TIME cause it is SOO SOO SOOOOOOO exciting! (There, I said it, I'm officially out of the CLOSET! I'm a TWIHARD FAN! EEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!! What will my PARENTS think!?!?!? LOL)
so now how you feel, I miss reading the books., cant wait for the movies ;)
WOW! Love the cards - all are wonderful. Thanks for the inspiration.

The first Twilight book has been sitting on my nightstand since before Christmas. Trying to find the time to get readin'!
Fabulous favorites Jimmi! Like Jackie I look forward to seeing them. Lovin' those shirts that you picked out and the paper? Gotta get me some of that! You are not helping my budget lady! lol!
P.S. Thanks for featuring my card - it gave me the warm fuzzies seeing it over here. :)
Jimmi,
I think its awesome you finally read the series :)
