Testing me...

hehe...you guys are just testing me, aren't you? Happay Scrappay tagged me with the 7 things tag again. I think you all are just trying to see if you can stump me, but I love a good challenge. To see my other lists of seven, see here, here, and here.

So here we go again. {Another} 7 random facts about me...
1. I wish that I was a redhead. If I wasn't so lazy and bad about consistently dying my hair, I probably would be. ;)
2. On the subject of hair, I rarely get my hair cut...I just cut it myself. Right now it hasn't been professionally cut since Kat was born (6 months ago) and the haircut before that, it was 2 years in between haircuts.
3. I love the color red...one of my favorite "things" in my life right now is my red coffeemaker.
4. I love to wear high heels year round, every day if possible. I feel powerful and thinner (which is ALWAYS a good thing) when I have high heels on. My shoe of choice during the winter months are some high heeled boots that are mid-calf.
5. Tonight I found a book that I started once (it's only like 3 pages.) I started it during the Christmas season and I really like what is written. I am really tempted to pick it up and start writing on it again...the story so far is intriguing and I have absolutely no recollection of where I was going with it so it could be an adventure.
6. I have picked up equipment/supplies to start drawing again. I am playing with some ideas of some new areas of crafting for me...maybe I will share more later.
7. I miss being on a Design Team. Since 2005, I have always had at least one (and usually more) where I was doing monthly work. That ended (and entirely coincidentally) when Kat was born when both the stores (one online and one local) that I was designing for closed/restructured. I am still doing mag work, but it's different than DT work. So this weekend, I am working on a couple of DT applications for 2 teams that I would really LOVE to be a part of.

And there is my seven random facts.

BTW, I had someone ask where they can find my magazine work. I work with a UK publisher, Practical Publishing. My most recent articles have been in the magazines Complete Cardmaking and Papercraft Essentials. You can sometimes find these at B&N. I am not sure which issues are out right now...there is a LONG delay time between when they are released in the UK and when they show up in the States.

Today has been a really productive day. So far, I have finished 1 card and 2 layouts, but I didn't get anything photographed before it got dark so I will share a bit of it tomorrow. And no, I never did get a nap, but I have had my muse humming so I haven't even been sleepy. Maybe a lack of sleep is better for my creative muse. :)
