I've placed an order from the new SU! catalogue last week. It was supposed to be here yesterday, but while tracking it online, I saw it encountered an exception: AGRICULTURAL HOLD. Lol... My mind started twisting and turning and thinking of these poor customs guys reading through my order: snail adhesive refill, wheel Always in Bloom, Razzleberry Lemonade, Elegant Bouquet, etc... It does sound like I have food, plants or animals in my parcel, eh? I am still laughing about this one. Then I remembered that song by Corb Lund "The Truck Got Stuck". You know the song, right?!?! They stole some canola seeds to use under the wheels of a truck that got stuck in mud. One of the lines is: "Agriculture Canada is definitely gonna be looking for us". If you don't know the song, go look it up on YouTube or somewhere, it is so funny. You can click here to read the lyrics. Maybe SU! should come up with new SU! Canada theme song...

Here is the latest card I made while waiting for Agricultural Hold to clear. It is designed for my "Friends 24-7" Class in the Mail. Contact me to purchase it or use the Pay Pal option in a side bar.

Supplies Used:
Paper: Whisper White (SU!), Chocolate Chip (SU!), Natural White (SU!)
Ink: Old Olive (SU!), More Mustard (SU!), Real Rust (SU!), Chocolate Chip (SU!), Close to Cocoa (SU!)

I know I am. I can not wait for the new SU! catalogue to go live tomorrow. So many things I need. Yes, you've read that right, I need them, every single one of them.

Oh, you're missing some serious excitement if you haven't. I've got them - give me a shout!

On the other note, we just came back from camping at Cultus lake. It was great, weather was beautiful, water cold but refreshing... We're off to Green Lake up by 70 Miles House next weekend. Bring on the s'mores!!! Stayed tuned for scrapbooking story of summer 2009. Many beautiful pictures to scrap. Too many. Now I'll be behind again. My older son befriended a caterpillar and was extremely upset that he had to leave him behind. He cried and was mourning for quite some time. No way I am getting them a pet.

Blog y'a later!
