Today

Some flowers for Mum. It was her 60th birthday yesterday.

And my bag is packed. I am ready to rock. Heading off early & hoping there is not too much traffic. Hubby is at work & Mum has the kids for the night. So hopefully I'll be able to get a reasonably early night.

Have a fabulous weekend, whatever you may be doing xxx

Canvas album

I made a start on my canvas album over the weekend. I don't really like how it turned out - but that's what you get when you don't plan what you're doing. My best ideas have never come from randomly throwing bits on.

Oops - too late now ....

So early.

I was up an hour and a half before the sun came up. Not because I wanted to be.

It's chilly and I would much rather be snuggled up under the doona..asleep!!

Got some new goodies the other day. Doodlebug is so cute. Haven't played with any of it yet. Typical of me lately.

For Danielle - the silhouette is so easy to use. I love it. You pick your design, whack in your paper and off you go. I really really love it. So easy. I signed up for the unlimited downloads account - which means today there will be more designs that I can download for nothing. That is awesome!!

And it's Studio Calico reveal day today - Yay!!!! Cherry pop and Shirley temple - here I come!!

Have happy Thursday,

Silhouette

Just made a couple of quick cards using the new designs for the silhouette.

I am going through a yellow phase. Would love to paint a whole room in it.

Have a happy Monday.

Love

So I played a bit more on my silhouette today. I cut out these borders. They are so fun.

I joined up for the unlimited account and spent the arvo getting a ton of new designs. I am completely in love with the borders. Love love love them!!!

A new toy

My silhouette arrived today. And I plugged it straight in, downloaded some designs and cut these two borders. So very cool. I can see that I am going to have fun with this little machine.

LOVE IT!!

Happy Mail...again

I just can't resist a sale and yummy products!! But, who can??


Some yummy yummy Hero Arts background stamps, 7 gypsies ATC stamp & Around the block number brads.


Prima canvas embellies and crystal swirl corners.

Sassafras chipboard & blossoms and a bargain stamp set

And a Basic Grey Lime Rickey card kit & some letter stickers.

I haven't scrapped...still....I think it's because I have no decent photos. I guess I could go back through my older ones. Or make cards.

I hope to get my scrap on, today - or sometime soon.

In other crazy shopping news - I made the decision to purchase a quickutz silhouette. I am super excited for it to arrive - I have been trawling blogs (nichol's is a favourite of mine) to see what other people are doing with it. I already have a slice (which I adore) but I wanted the ability to create or modify designs myself. So if you've got one - do you have any tips for me? And what do you like best about it? Or worst about it?

(Hopefully next time I'll have something scrappy to share)

Have a happy Thursday,

Finally....

I only managed one card...but it's better than nothing right?

All products used are American Crafts. I especially love the Thank You Dots stamp. And I finally played with my Zing embossing powder. I used Blush and Charcoal on this card - and they are really shiny and lovely.

My beautiful hubby gave me my mothers day presents early - and the big sneak gave me a massive, beautiful photo frame that I have been lusting after for ages - and a new frying pan (that I so desperately need) I was so suprised. He is such a beautiful man....and I am so very lucky to have him.

I am off to my Mum's for lunch tomorrow - so whatever your plans are, I just want to wish you all a very Happy Mothers Day.

More Happy Mail

This is so much better than bills.

Got my 2 BG kits, some yummy Sassafras Bungle Jungle & Making Memories Just Chillin.

I can feel the mojo stirring, just looking at it ;o)

I LOVE American Crafts and still no scrapping

There has been no scrapping for me lately. The best I have managed is keeping up with my project 365, and getting ink on this page. How fun are the Heidi Swapp Invisibles? Loved it. It was my first try.

Happy Happy mail day for me today. I ordered some of the mounted American Crafts stamps. They looked so cute online - and they are even better in real life. I am really excited to have a play with them.

It's so cold in here, so that's it for today ;o)

Have a happy week
