Not much time for stamping these days but I did manage to squeeze some time in today to play with my “Butterfly Queen” set from my favorite stamp company BombShell Stamps.  I wanted to play with my copic markers for bold bright colors but I think I just dont have enough of them or I havn’t quite got the hang of it yet.. its very hard to get the blending and shading that I am aiming for… I suppose in time it will get better.

On a happy note…I managed to get tickets to see NIN again (3rd show-in 3 months :)  This was a special club appearance at the House of Blues in Atlantic City, NJ and it was a rare chance to see the band in an intimate setting stripped down without all of the special effects.  I braved the pit again and was against the rail this time - I made it 40 minutes before having to be pulled out! Gets rough in there but is so worth the bruises and pain I am feeling today 3 days later…. Not easy to take pictures in a pit but here are a few good ones… Trent is looking very -very hot these days! It was the best show I think I will ever see (and I have seen a lot) 

If you look to the bottom right of this next shot you can see someone getting pulled out of the pit.. I thought this was a pretty great shot!

Gotta love a great show with loud music, up close and personal. It was an awesome night and a much needed stress reliever.
