:: Target is Evil! ::
Just kidding! I think everyone know that Gina Miller is a major Target-aholic, and while I’m not quite as bad as she is, I can never walk out of that store without dropping a chunk of change! Jordan and I went yesterday, mainly to get out of the house and kill some time before Karate class. Wrong! You can never just “look around” in Target. First off, you hit the Dollar Spot when you walk in the door. They have a lot of Easter stuff out now. I picked up some cute “hand-made” Easter cards. They are really cute, and for a buck each, you can’t beat that! They also had some cute little metal pails with ribbon weaved around the top. Now, why I need these, I have no idea, but they were just too cute! I already had like 7 little pails in the craft room, just waiting to be altered! So why buy more, right? Because they’re cute… that’s why - LOL! They would make cute little mini-easter baskets though.
They also had these little mini lunch boxes with the Cars movie theme on them. I thought these would be great for altering too. They would be great for holding little mini albums. As you can see I have many aspirations - it’s my follow-through that’s the problem - LOL! I noticed that they had a lot of their scrapbooking stuff on clearance too, but I was a good girl, and I didn’t buy a thing from there!
We also went back to the girls department to look at clothes for Jordan. I have slowly been picking up some Summer stuff for her. We got her two pair of sandals last week, and I found these at Target yesterday. Aren’t they cute?
I also got her this T-shirt. Love Hello Kitty!
I also got her another shirt and some funky floral shorts that were on the clearance rack - no photos of those on the Target site. I saw this swimsuit too, but I didn’t get it. It would look so cute on Jordan, but she’s still learning to swim, so she wear the suits with the little foamie inserts in them.

Thanks Traci! I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one who gets stuck at the Dollar Spot! They get at least $10 out of me there each trip and that’s just the tip of the iceburg. I’ve got a collection of tins and wooden things I want to alter someday too.

My husband calls Target the $50 store - because I’ll go in there for one thing and end up with a cartful. I don’t have the heart to tell him $50 is a good day
Thanks again for the gifts!

Hi Traci!
Love the Cherry Vanilla Kit. Thanks so much for sharing. I was wondering if you will be offering it in your store? I was in the hospital for a week and half or there abouts and missed quite a few downloads. I especially like the alpha and elements III parts.
God bless you! Praying for your continued success. BTW, your daughter is adorable. Wish I could get my grandaughter to pose for me like that!

Hi tracy,
Ihave just dicovered your blog. I’m a newbie to computers, scrapbooking, blogs and PSP8. I like your designs very much. I wish i would have been around for cherry vanilla.Yhe color combination is absolutely gorgeous.i tried to get what’s on there now but no luck.i was sure disappointed.
I love your flowers. I am a flower lover. Our season is short here but always looking for new ideas. The shoes and overalls look like they have been hardened in some way.Is there a finish on them? I have used both but only last one season because of the weather.Do you answer email? Maybe no time for that.
