CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE FUN!!

WOOO HOOO!!! I get to register for Nationals under the "Masters Championships Freeskating Competition" in Scottsdale AZ ...a VERY FIRST FOR ME!!!! I am so THRILLED that I qualified to compete in the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS. I will be competing against all of the top four placement earners from Eastern, Mid-Western and Pacific Coast Championships next month. I was shocked that I slipped in placing forth among all the great skaters. I was truly honored to be in their group. My placement of 4th in this group of skaters is DEFIANTLY the HIGHLIGHT of my Adult skating. Not only did I bring home 4th place in the "Pacific Coast Masters Championships" group but I brought home a 2nd place in Freeskate, 1st place in Artistic Light and 1st place in Dramatic.. A WONDERFUL WEEKEND all around. Special Thanks goes out to Erika Susman Shorr for her wonderful support and training. To the LOC at Pasadena Ice , you all did a fabulous job, as well as all the judges and volunteers that helped over the weekend. I had the time of life and I am so happy we all have this avenue to express our passion! I hope you can see just how much fun I had doing this routine. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not bad for an OLD LADY..lol :)

 

Pacific Coast Ice Skating Adult Sectionals is this weekend. Wish me Luck :)

RHINESTONE KICK!

On a Rhinestone kick at the moment.lol! This is my new USA Adult Figure Skating Jacket. I just had to BLING IT OUT...lol This jacket will be with me during all my travels this year. 

I will even be competing internationally.

Thanks for stopping by.....It may be time to put away the rhinestones and get back to the paper crafting..LOL ;) Oh and I am entering this project in the "Anything Goes" challenge over on CDAC.



 

Video with my dress "before" blinging (After video coming soon)

Hi everyone, I wanted to show you my dress while I skating in it "before" I finished the blinging. If you notice, it kind of looks bare around my torso. I am hoping the way I blinged it now will make it more balanced. Anyway, this was a competition that was held Nov 2012 in Las Vegas NV. I took home the gold and thought I would share it with my blogging friends. I hope you like it.  ((((((hugs))))))

My Finished Dramatic Costume!

Just wanted to post my thanks to everyone who commented and emailed me regarding my article I posted last week. You are all so wonderful with all your kind words.  I also wanted to share with you my completed costume. It has been a work in process and I am finally DONE! You will see this costume in my previous post however there are no rhinestones around the torso. This costume is getting a little on the heavy side, so I think I should stop now..LOL I hope it will bring me luck this skating season. Thanks for stopping by to take a peek at my finished custom creation.

 I am entering this project in the "Anything Goes" challenge over on CDAC.

 

I'm so Honored!

I really wanted to share something here and hopefully you can read this...Just published in the January Issue of the Skating Magazine, which is a pretty big one :) Note:typo on the year in the article. Should have said 2012 not 2011. I only returned to skating last year (2012). Thanks for letting me share :)
