I sometimes love IKEA

Hubby took me for a drive up to Ikea today and bought me a massive Expedit. He also made me get 5 Lekman boxes too. I only wanted one. But 5 have definately come in handy. 2 contain my stamps and 2 contain my punches. Have pretty much just shoved stuff on there. And still trying to organise things on my desk.

So exhausted.

I'll be leaving the rest until tomorrow.

I am so very happy. It has really given me so much more room than before. And everything will finally have a home.

Now I just need to convince hubby that I need a new chair!!

I LOVE Basic Grey

So I loved doing the January BG POTM kit so much that last night I started on the February one(this one by Becky Fleck). So full of bittersweet yumminess. Again, I need to fill in the journalling.

It was so fun - I really need to get my hands on the March one, but I think I missed the boat.

I also ended up making a card from the leftovers of January. I just love those butterflies.

It's so funny, since I started scrapping - the one company that I was intimidated by was Basic Grey. I just didn't know what to do with their papers. My neighbour bought a whole pack of Lollipop Shoppe within 24hours of our introduction to scrapping. (I think it's still on her shelf)
But now.....I am loving the BG. I would have to say that they are at the top of my list....along with AC of course (because I would just die without thickers) ;o)

Who or what are you loving at the moment that has really suprised you?

Finally some scrapping

Got some scrapping done last. At last.

I used the Basic Grey January 2009 page-of-the-month kit. I just followed the instructions by Kelly Goree. I've just got the journalling to do - just waiting on my new pen to come. And I've still got quite a bit of product left from the pack. I plan on making cards from the leftovers.

The other layout I did a while ago. Using the december SC kit. I have gotten so much use out of that one and still have a ton left.

Sort of pushing things around my desk at the moment - trying to make it feel less cluttered. It's driving me crazy. I so need some storage!!

Have a Happy Sunday ;o)

Hooray

So it's all sort of back together again. Now I just have to re enter my blog links.

I think I'll save that for another day. Getting tired of playing with it!!

Received my Lush order the other day. It was great timing as I was almost running out.

Haven't scrapped this week. Had planned to tonight but ended up putting my blog back together - and that took longer than expected.

I grabbed 2 page of the month kits by Basic Grey from AMLT. They've been sitting on my desk for over a week - so I definately plan to get stuck into them tomorrow.

I want to have them done by the time my SC kits come. I am so excited. They were so gorgeous this month.

And for those that asked about that punch from a previous post - I got it from my local scrap shop. I haven't seen it online anywhere, but if I do I'll post the link.

And for something new - I jumped on the Twitter bandwagon. ( getting in some practice for CZ's new class....which I cannot wait for).

Anyway,

Have a great weekend

Such a fool

I was playing around with my blog - and completely wrecked the template. Bugger.
Too frustrated now. Give me a couple of days and I'll try and sort it out.

Sweet

So I haven't done alot of scrapping lately. Only scrap shopping.

Picked up this sweet punch the other day. It is definately going to be used on my next layout, for sure!!

I have been keeping up with my Project 365. Suprisingly.

And I am seriously running out of room on my desk. I really need some shelving. I hate feeling cluttered.

I am itching for the SC reveal on Saturday. I can't wait to see all the yumminess.

That's it for me. Off to bed. Getting an early night tonight. Finally!!

Thicker crazy

I received my packages today. Oh yum!!

17 delicious packets of thickers. I adore thickers!! I love the "Lullaby" and "patchwork" ones. And the "Umbrella" have tiny little polka dots on them. They are way too cute!!

Cannot wait to use them. There are so many letters in the "Rockabye"

I was a little disappointed with the doodlebug tote. It is really small. I certainly don't think it's big enough to take to a crop. But it will make a cute handbag!!

I am pretty happy with my purchases.

What are you buying lately?? Link me up ;o)

My little cutie pies

I had to quickly whip up some cards yesterday. Not bad for under 10 minutes!!

The kitties got desexed last Monday. Little Violet gets her stitches out on Thursday. Poor thing has had to wear an Elizabethan collar that is almost bigger than her.

Dash developed an abcess where he had his vaccinations so he is on antibiotics as he has been really crook. Now that the medicine is in his system he is starting to bounce back.

I had a little bit of a splurge and ordered some of the new thickers from AMLT. Cannot wait to get them. Yummo!!

And spent the last of my scrapping budget on a doodlebug tote and some adhesive & stickers from SB.com

Very excited for it to arrive.

Don't forget that you still have time to post on the giveaway below.

Have a happy day ;o)

Back again, 365...and a giveaway

Well - I won't bore you with where I have been and what's going on. But a double ear infection (AGAIN!!) was involved. Right as the holidays ended. Perfect timing.

SO I'm all better now and back with it again.

Have not really scrapped much. Made a couple of cards and a few layouts.

This week I got a suprise delivery - I actually got my hands on a Project 365 kit. I absolutely love it. Have spent the past two days putting it all together. I am going to love looking back over it after a year.

So, onto the giveaway. I have a Fa La La Slice Design Card to giveaway. This is everything you can cut with it. And yes, I am happy to post internationally.
So leave a hello and I'll put your name in the draw. Entries close midnight on the 13th Feb.
Winner will be drawn on Valentines Day. Good Luck. One entry per person please.
