Need more time!

Up to my ears in craftiness today. So much to do over the weekend and so little time. Pressure is on for my Gallery Idol card. I've got a few in the works - but don't feel like I've made "the" one yet. Also working on some pub calls, due over the weekend. Scorching & humid her in New Jersey but working on holiday projects!
Also have this pile of photos, ephemera and notes to compile into a memory book for the principal of my son's pre-school.
She's retiring this year and I volunteered to make the scrapbook (2 months ago) (In my defense, I only started receiving material a few weeks ago). I will come up with a page formula and just crank it out. It's due by Thursday. Luckily, I work well under pressure.  I've never made a big book like this for anyone. I've made minis but not big 12 x 12s. I'll post photos when it's done.

Also, want to give a shout out to 2 products on my desk that I am totally loving:
That new American Crafts adhesive is wonderful and it makes that familiar & comforting clicking sound that another one of my favorite products used to make before it was harshly discontinued. I wish it was a little bigger but I also love that it is not the size of a pizza box! The color is pretty awesome, too! The Tim Holtz pins - I know, big whoop, safety pins. But, these are tiny and special colors. I've been using them on everything. I better cool it with the pins.

In the midst of all this, my little boy is going to turn 5 (cupcakes to bake) and my brother is coming to visit for a week from North Carolina with his young son. Doesn't help that it's 'end of the year' at school and all kinds of activities are filling in the days. Yikes!!
