A little Happy Mail

Look what arrived at my house today -

And this was inside

Hopefully I'll get to play with it on Wednesday. Can't wait!!

Yay for Happy Mail -

Silhouette & Glimmer

So on Friday I downloaded the new Silhouette Studio Software for Mac. Totally Awesome. Well, totally awesome except for the nightmare of trying to restore over 8000 images and then my silhouette not even working. BUT- it's almost all sorted out now, and it is AWESOME.

I love that I can use it on my mac (Instead of Bootcamp). I love that it is much more user friendly. And pretty. And well - just totally awesome!

So tonight I'm just spritzing some shapes with glimmer mist. Getting inky & having fun.
I might even reorganise my scrap room. It needs a bit of a clean.

I better hurry up - I've only got an hour before Offspring starts.

Have a Happy Week,

Hello Slacker!

WOW - not 1 update in the whole of September.
Well, I guess it's because I have not been scrapping at all. It makes it hard when you have no ink to print out pics. And I haven't really taken any pics either. Bad me.
I'm still waiting on my SC kits and my CE kits.
I did manage to squeeze out some really simple christmas cards today.

In other news - my sister became a Grandma last week. I've yet to meet the beautiful boy. But I can't wait!!

Well, I guess that's it.
Really hoping I get some Happy Mail this week. It might kickstart me into making something,

Have a great week,

Delivery

I received my order from Blue Bazaar this morning. The 'Champagne" Glimmer Glaze looks absolutely gorgeous. I can't wait to paint it on something!! It's so so pretty.


I finished the layout I was working on. I love the BG mini sticker letters. They are awesome!
Anyway - have a happy week -

Impulse

I've bought a few things on impulse lately and this is probably the thing that I am most excited about.
I ordered this last night:

I really loved the spring junque class I did with Heidi. So I really couldn't say no to this one!!
So pretty.

And this morning I received my punch that I ordered off ebay a few weeks ago. Hooray. So cute.
I got this

I've been needing it since Christine's doily tutorial.

Now all I need is to get some scrapping happening in here!!

Up late

Since I'm up late for the Studio Calico pre sale, I thought I'd quickly blog.
I've been playing with my silhouette this week. Had to make some bees for a game my dd is making. A bit of cardstock, pp & some glimmermists - and they turned out pretty cute!

I managed to get everything I wanted at presale - and a bit more too!! So I'm pretty happy.
I tried to scrap tonight, but I ran out of ink & the letter stickers I was using. So a quick order at Blue Bazaar - and hopefully I'll be back to it by Tuesday.


Well - I guess I better get to bed before I ramble even more -

Refresh

I have had these drawers for quite some time. And as you can see behind this card (This was the only pic I could find of them - in 2003 I think)- they were really bright pink & gaudy.

So I decided to give them a little facelift with some Basic Grey Oliver papers and some white paint. I love how they turned out. I'm leaving them to dry overnight, and tomorrow I'll start loading them with bits and pieces. My SC stamp Box to the left - is next in line!!!

Something to share & a giveaway

So finally I have something to share. I've had my little doilies lying on my scrap table, being shuffled around as I work on other things for quite a few weeks now. Patiently waiting for a home.
Well, last night I gave them one. I had planned on using my 7 gypsies tray since the beginning when I first started them. I stuck them all in while I was watching Offspring last night. And I love my little collection. Nowhere near as impressive as Christine's, but I love them all the same.

Ok, so onto the giveaway.
Tamar has got a fabulous giveaway over here. Go check it out!!

Off to recover some drawers -

Run now

Go straight over to Kerri's blog and get yourself this free digital cutting file. How cute is this card?!
I adore Kerri's designs. So go and grab it for yourself, and a chance to win some while you are there. How awesome is that!!
Well, what are you waiting for..GO!!

Another Delivery

This time I ordered from Blue Bazaar.

I got some Oliver & Olivia stickers

A new album for my daughters collection

And this Amy Butler bag that I have been eyeing off since they first came out a few years ago.
It is much better than I expected it to be. A really good size.



And my first layout for Kelly's Sketchbook class
