Thank you 3

Morning one n all,
It's a very overcast Sat morn here and the day is gonna be not pleasant.  I've coloured this Gorguss stamp with Copic markers, not sure if I like how she turned out. Thank you was using the Everyday compliments from Die Version.  The lace edging was a SU punch and the paper from Kaiser Kraft.  Some sparkle highlights was from Sakura jelly pens.

I'm entering her into the challenge over on http://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com.au/

Have a gr8 day ppls

Bonjour

Howdy dowdy,
We have finally hit the single digits for the weather, you could say winter has finally come...  The weekend has been absolutely glorious if you ignore the chilly factor.  Early mornings and late nites doesn't help with the body thou, I think I've come down with a cold.

hello

Ello beautiful people,
I was very lucky to be able to work at the Scrapbook Show here in Brisbane Queen's Birthday weekend.
The first day was busy, busy and busy with hardly a moment to breathe or move.  My job was mainly to showcase the lovely products from http://thepapercrafthub.com.au/  with beautiful dies designed the lovely Emilia called Fancy That, dies from different companies, stamps and did I mention WASHI  TAPES.  Hop on over to the blog and view the image of the tapes from one of the shows.  If you LOVE
Washi tapes - this is certainly the place to get them. 
I got to work with a lovely group of fun ladies who made it so much fun.  Thanks Emilia for letting me work on your stall.

I've thought I'd use a few of the products from the weekend to show you how simple it was to put this card together.  I'm entering it into the challenge over on http://diecuttindivas.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/challenge-119-purple-with-pearls-611.html

Please Know

Goodness gracious,
Someone turned down the temp today...  Winter is def around the corner and I think we hit single digits this morning...  Here's one I've done the for challenge at http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com.au/

I've used some different techniques on this card.  I coloured a SU stamp image using Tim Holtz Distress markers, used a Versa Mark pen to colour the image so I could use Clear embossing powder to give the image a little shine.  The cardstock is from SU, the saying was using Memento Ink, glitter for the tops of the flowers.   Gave the sides a little stitched look.  I used Kaiser Craft - Lilac Avenue Collection.

Wishes

Good Morn
I think the cold weather has finally caught up with us here in sunny Brissy.  Makes it hard to exercise when all you want to do is stay in ur fluffy pjs and stay in bed.  But here I am all dressed and ready to head out the door for some Crossfit to get the blood moving...

For Mum

Hi everyone,
Would you believe Mother's Day is this Sunday coming up.  Does everyone have something planned for the day, or rather the family's going to do breakkie/brunch???  Well here's a card I've done for a mate..  His mum is gonna be down the coast for the day.  He wanted a beach/seaside theme for his card this year.
Ain't you tube wonderful, what did we do before all that info and tech was at our finger tips.
I made a 3-fold step card, using intials, lots of different textures.
I've added a little saying which goes like this

Your thoughtfulness of others
And your patience, day by day
Your warmth and understanding
And your helpful, loving way...
Those are the things we cherish
And are especially thinking of
As we sign this card that simply 
says - To Mum with all our love

This going into the challenge at
