Exciting times...

Hey,

Yippee it is Friday!!

It's been quite a week here in NYC for me - hotter than hell, new Star Wars Style boot for the foot (3 more weeks and then I should be good), playing along with the colour challenge at the Daily Marker and becoming a Stampin' Up demonstrator!!

My lovely Retro Rubber colleague Debbie helped me to take the leap and I am super excited to be a demonstrator.

I am planning my first event..so watch this space, but for now, if you are interested in purchasing there is a link on my sidebar.

My card today is from Day 8 of the colour challenge and uses Stampin' Up Cheerful Critters stamps - I coloured the bear with Promarkers in tones that matched the paper. I love the sentiment..

Happy Weekend everyone, I will be at my desk, shopping at the Inkpadnyc sale and drinking wine with my Hubby.

30 Days of Colouring...week 1...

Hey,

Happy Monday to you.

Super quick post from me today..

JT and I have been playing along with the 30 day Colouring Challenge, hosted by Kathy over at The Daily Marker.

We have been having a lot of fun (not sure if our friends and family agree..with the FB and Instagram spam from us) and the collage photo today shows you all the fun we have been up to.

I urge you to join in, not just because it's fun, but because I have discovered that 10 mins of colouring a day is super easy to do and very theraputic :)

You can also see what JT and I are up to each week on our Flickr Group.

WOYWW #313..Craft playtime for months to come...

Hey,

Happy WOYWW.

What fun last week's swap was. I have now posted all of mine and now I am starting to receive yummy snail mail - whoop!

I will show you the delights I received once they are all safely with me.

So for you WOYWW novices, join us and our fabulous hostess Julia over at her blog Stamping Ground for the weekly global desk nosy - make new friends, be enabled to buy new stash, fun times.

I have been super busy craft wise, because I decided I just wanted to have some playtime with my enormous stash and so have allocated the Summer months to play and DT items only - sweet.

Sadly Mr Broken foot is causing me issues (btw the original break has healed..) I am off for a foot MRI today (sigh).

I have nearly finished Day 5 of my OCC and JT and I are now playing along with The Daily Marker - 30 days of colouring challenge. You can see what we are colouring here.

Due to me participating in the colouring challenge, my desk is very tidy, I like to colour in a tidy environment. I have been known to go to the dining table when I have been too lazy to tidy my desk..but Hubby has quite a lot to say about that.

My desk today shows my finished colouring from Day 2 and some ideas about making them into cards, my glasses are there (spotty pair for a change) and my mini distress inks.

I've got some exciting news for you, but that will be coming later on this week...

Here is a little card for you - in the layout stage...

I got the Avery Elle flower die on sale and it makes a very sticky up flower, so I will be using it on a present, but I do like this layout. I used SSS inks.

I followed this video to make my flower..neat idea.

See you later gators.
