Time Flies

Wowww it the end of August...
The last few days have been glorious, sunny and just this side of warm.  Today I got to spend some time with a lovely Tracey who has the blog http://trace-elementz.blogspot.com.au/  talking about all things crafty... Next time we'll get down to some actually Copic colouring.  Time does fly when your having a good time.
I got to drool over her lovely craftroom and dream that one day I get to have a room like that too...
Well back to the card above.  I made the main image a few weeks ago and never got around to putting it together, so with the challenge over at http://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com.au/  Sketches #48 it's come in handy.  I had the background strips in a lighter lilac but ended up colouring them with some Tim Holtz distress ink. Wasn't too sure about the card after I created it, but it's slowly growing on me.  :D

D'OH  I missed the deadline, never mind  here's to better time management.

Sleepy n cute

Howdy dowdy one and all
Back to routine this week, the last week has been busy, busy, busy.  Thousands of apple slinkies were eaten at the show.  The chest infection is slowly going away...  :D   Back to the gym with a new routine so bring on the pain.

Here's a cute card I've coloured with Copic pens using a Gorguss stamp, Prima flowers, pearls, My Mind's Eye - Summer Song stack, twine and some glitter pen to create this.  I'm entering it into the challenge over at http://especiallymade.blogspot.com.au/2012/08/three-pearls-challenge.html

Flying Kitty

Howdy dowdy everyone
This week hasn't been the best for health.  I've managed to catch a cold from the scrap weekend which has thrown the whole exercise routine out the window.   NOT HAPPY JAN!!!  Starting this Saturday we've got our yearly Exhibition Show that show cases animals, food, rides, showbags, entertainment, fashion, sideshow alley.  I get to work in a booth making apple slinkies ...  So apologies for lack of posts for the coming week.  I'll try and get as many challenges up before Sat.
Here's Hello Kitty card I've done for the challenge over at http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com.au/  CFC64 - on cloud 9.  I've cut out a cloud and used Tim Holtz distress ink to outline the clouds.

Cherry cupcake

Hi everyone,
I got to go to a Scrap camp weekend gone.   lol  it's hard work when you have your meals cooked for you. Breakkie, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner and supper .  That didn't include the arrival the nite before where not an hour after arrival we had a 3 course dinner ready for us.  So being good and not eating way too much and having a good time went out the window.  After all the chef went to all that effort to make these delicious meals for us, we could only be noice and eat the food.  We still had breakkie, morning tea and lunch on the final day.

Hooray I did do some Christmas cards, colouring and generally have a VERY GOOD time chatting to the ladies around me.  Lack of sleep finally caught up with me when I got home.  Will have to post some pics of the room with the ladies later on.

Anyway here's one of the cards I managed to put together.  This will go well over at http://blog.markerpop.com/  Weekly #4 challenge - Bright colours.

The image was from the  http://sureya.deviantart.com/gallery/, Copic pens, Spellbinders Shapeabilities - Parisian Accents, Spica pens for high lights in the hair, Prima flowers, jewel brad, bling and cardstock from My Mind's Eye.

Have a gr8 week
cheers
