Happy Birthday Sammi

Hope you have a wonderful day. Hope you get lots and lots of pressies.

Cute Somethings

Good evening everyone. Ahhh it is the weekend....!!! Can you hear the excitement....??? LOL. I can and am looking forward to a wonderful weekend - especially Sunday which is Fathers Day here in Australia. Don't know about the rest of the world though. Anyway.

Tonight I have this cute to boot card for Stamp Something Challenges. The challenge this week is to make 'Cute Somethings'. Our fabulous sponsor this week is Bugaboo Stamps. Oh I love their stamps and so much so that every time I go to their site I can never decide what to pick. LOL. This stamp is Dino Sit and I thought he was adorable so I picked him out of all the cute stamps. If you haven't visited Bugaboo before you seriously missing out. Go check out their Digital stamps here. Go on, dare ya. LOL.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It has seriously been a long week. I had DH home on Monday and Tuesday with the flu. Poor thing was very unwell but he was a gem last weekend and looked after the kids when I wasn't here even though he had the flu. So he is on his third lot of Antibiotics in about 6wks. They just don't seem to be doing much. oh well he is definately on the mend now. I have been suffering (again) from bad headaches. It is kinda depressing really. It is getting me down and I need to get my A in to gear and get it investigated - rule out anything serious. It is all in my neck. Ahhhh...!!!!! On a good note though - Spesch Stamps are now in another store other than our own site. My local scrapbooking store - Scrappers Warehouse - have some of my stamps for sale. Don't think they will have them online though as they have limited numbers. I do love shopping there although I did control myself when I took the stamps in yesterday. LOL. Okay enough waffle. Take care. Have a great weekend.

Simply Betty Challenges

I made the team. I made the team.

Yep that is right.

I made the DT for Simply Betty Challenges. Woo hoo.

I am so so so thrilled. I was jumping for joy when the

invite came from Betty. I have adored the stamps

for a long time. So watch this space.

I join a very talented team and can't wait to work with them all

including the incredibly talented Betty Boo.

We have some rippa challenges coming up and I just can't wait

to show you all what I have made.

Woot woot hahahaha.

Father's Day release

Morning everyone.

Hope you are all well.

A new stamp is available from Spesch Stamps

by customer request. I am so sorry I can't remember who

requested it. I must work harder at not deleting lots of emails LOL.

Hope you like. It is available for $2.50 in store here.

Birthday Wishes

Good morning everyone.

It is Thursday and it is my Mad for Markers day.

I thought I would use one of my new TGF Creepers that I got last week.

I have been dying to ink and colour them. So here she is. This is

Tuesday. I just love her. Princess indeed.

Copics used:

skin- E000, 00, 21,02

dress - R29, 27, 24, 22, 20

hair - E39, 35, 33, 31, blender

boots - C10, 9, 7, 5

Lollipops

Good morning everyone.

It is Wednesday so I have a card for you for The Lollipop Ladies Challenge.

This week we have to use the photo of those yummy

lollipops (above). The added extra is to use Acetate on your creation.

I thought I would use 60's Tilda from Magnolia as she has that scrummy

lollipop. And of course I used some acetate as my base for my card.

This is the back of the card. Sorry it is a bit blurry but the flash kept

reflecting off the acetate so turned it off. The personalized stamp

is a digital stamp from Motivet. I don't know if they

still have them available but I bought three of them. Yay LOL.

Now I must apologize for my lack of comments on the entries

in to The Lollipop Ladies challenges. I just always forget

that I have to go and comment on all the gorgeousness. I will

try and make more of an effort.

Paperific Photos

Morning everyone. Thought I would show you pictures from Paperific today.

These photos were taken when we were setting up on Thursday.

We all had very sore feet and legs after the afternoon but we got there - eventually.

I am wishing Sammi good luck at the Expo today. Hope you sell

out of all your markers darling.

I must say people have started to go Copic crazy here in Australia and they just can't get enough.

We had lots and lots of people in the stand from the get go. As soon as

they opened the doors there were people everywhere. Some people

came all the way from Adelaide and Sydney just for the Melbourne

Expo. And boy were they there to shop. Some of them had

bags and bags and said they had spent a lot of money LOL. If

Sammi had let me I would have done shopping too but it

was so busy I would not have been able to do much of it anyway LOL.

Okay here are the photos.

The gorgeous Sammi.

Sammi and I.

My stamp stand with all Spesch stamps and stamps from The Stamp Spot.

Almost there.

Look at all those delicious Copics. I need to buy some. Hoping Sammi will have

some R80's left for me to buy tomorrow but not counting my chickens LOL.

The other side of the back wall.

The left side wall with all the Spesch Cards - most of them made by myself or Sammi.

More of the left wall.

Hopefully I will be able to get photos from Sammi during the week

to show you more of it.

Happy stamping everyone.

Oh and need to say a big big big big big "Hello" to some of the ladies

who follow my blog and came and visited us at the Expo. Thanks for

your support ladies. It was such a thrill to meet you.

Back to School Somethings

Good evening or good morning for where ever you may be. It is late here and I am exhausted. Phew the Paperific Expo was a blast but very tiring. Anyway I will tell all about that on Sunday to see how we all faired.

Tonight I have a card for Stamp Something. This week we have a challenge of 'Back to School Somethings'. Our wonderful sponsor is Simon Says Stamps. If you have never visited the Simon Says Store then you are missing out. They have a great range of just about everything. So make sure you go here and do some retail therapy. LOL. Have a great night. Will see you all on Sunday with lots of photos of Paperific.

Colouring Pink #2

Good morning everyone. Will make it quick as I am trying to get my head around all the stuff I want or need to do for Paperific tomorrow.

As today is Thursday it is my Mad for Markers day. I coloured up this gorgeous stamp from Spesch Stamps called Princess with balloons. As the current challenge at M4M is colouring pink I coloured her gorgeous dress in pink. Have a good day. You will see me tomorrow night - hopefully with photos of my time at Paperific.
