One More Day!!

Graphic 45 Design Team Call Tomorrow!!!

Do you know what just happens to be on my mind tonight?  YOU GUESSED IT! Graphic 45 Design Team Call!!!!  To be announced tomorrow!  Well, I might have lemon meringue pie on my mind too!  I love sugar and flour in any form or fashion!  Doughnuts, pies, cakes, cookies...Lord I love  sweets!!! Feel assured, if you ever get in the mood to bake and then feel like sharing, I will be a very happy recipient!  HAHHAHA! 

Yes, I finished my YouTube video tut for the night.  I am feeling a bit guilty for not starting a new project.  However, I find myself with a fork in hand sitting in my living room chair with a whole pie sitting on my lap, nervously shoving the glorious mixture in my mouth while I watch Raiders of the Lost Ark for the 436 time!!  LOL!  (We all have our very own unique ways to cope, so stop laughing!) I am a prime example of a person dealing with nervous eating syndrome.  Did I make that up?  Whatever!  However, the pie is luscious and frankly, I DESERVE IT!  LOL! 

Tonight I explore the way a box is made from "structure strips."  (kinda sounds like Jacques Cousteau doesn't it?)  Please join me for my version of, BOX CONSTRUCTION USING STRUCTURE STRIPS Below....

Part 1

 

Part 2

 

Well, what can I say!  Here's to tomorrow, whatever may come!  Thanks for looking!  Good Luck to all the other finalist!

I'm enjoying your videos. You're doing great!! No worries about tomorrow. You'll make it, no problem!!

[Kim]

Praying for you to have sweet rest tonight Jim, I love you and will always be in your corner cheering you on, I'm so proud of you!

[Elsie]

Jim, your video tutorials are awesome. Now I can finally make a box that isn't all wonky and wobbly!! And you can say OK as much as you want. Your personality came through in your posts, but it is so much more fun to see you live and in (video) person!
Hope the G45 news is a "yes!"

[Nan Robkin]

Crossing everything of which I have two! Can't wait for the news tomorrow--it better be good! Like that pie--my favorite, too!

[Cassandra]

I can't wait to Congratulate you tomorrrow Jim! Cos you have to be a shoe in like I've been saying or I'll have to do what I promised and shave my head and run down my street nakes whilst singing "I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts" and I certainly don't intend on doing that!!! lol

I just wish I knew what time it would be announced in Australian time lol. xo

[Pam]

Congratulatioins, well deserved. Enjoy the moment. Cannot wait to see what the year will bring. The box contruction videos have been so helpful. I have been using chipboard that is way too thick. So I will try my projects again.

[Patti]

Looks like everything turned out OK!!! You made it...huge congrats!!

[Lynn Wild]

Thank you very much for the structure strips tutorial - you did OK !!!!! I could tell you were full of nervous energy - or was that the sugar rush from a whole lemon merangue pie? I'm so excited for you too! Many congratulations for a very well deserved place on the Graphic 45 design team - I expect there will be some partying in Austin Texas tonight!
