Thankyou!

A big thankyou to the people who stopped and by and left me some comments over the last day or so! It was so nice to hear from you. Today I've been to the tip, cleaned the inside of my car.
Just waiting til this arvo to do the outside. Also lots of washing so I can pack for our road trip on Tuesday.
As promised, some photos of cards. My favourite set at the moment would have to be Holiday Lineup. Here I've used some retired DSP that I still adore, punched out a very big red circle and added my stamped image. You can't see very clearly here but I also added some dazzling diamonds using my crystal effects. A green galore circle would be nice too.. The blue card is a CASE from our Demonstrator swap which has been a very useful resource.
These cards (triangle trees) are CASED from Brenda Wand who is also a Stampin'Up Demonstrator. I haven't quite finished these as there is no sentiment on them but they were nice and simple and fun to make. A great way to use up those left over bits of DSP we all have floating around. Pop a dimensional underneath the trees.
The ruby red and real red cards are cased from Maryanne Johnston but I have used a different punch along the bottom and missed out on some of the other features she used. Again I've used the Holiday Lineup and the scallop flower punch with the circle to create the spotlight effect.
And finally, a card I made for my dear dad using the Sense of Time stamp set. I have used the Parisian Breeze DSP from the spring mini and its devine. Quite thick and textured. I have used bleach to stamp onto choc chip and creamy caramel card stock. To finish it off I have added something from the hodgepodge hardware. Well that's me done! Now i'm off for a few weeks so I won't be posting anything. But please stop by soon. I promise to post again!

Go the Cats!!


Well done to Geelong. While I was hoping that St Kilda would get up they gave it a redhot go!! Anway after a conversation with Sherylee (hi Sherylee!!) she said I hadn't been posting any pictures for a while. I had a think and I agree. It's not like I haven't been making anything! This week I have made 14 cards and 2 6 x 6 layouts!!!! The last scrapI went to a also made 13 cards. Mmm so today I have some photos for you.
Firstly my attempts at Keesh's latest colour challenge - which I loved and ended up doing 2 layouts for..The colour is not the best in this picture so best look at the others!I have heaps more to show you but check back in tomorrow and I will post then!! Apart from making cards I have been frantically cleaning out, throwing out and generally getting ready for the big move which is just looming ahead so quickly now. The house settles on Tuesday and we are driving to Perth that day. Can't wait to get down there and know it will be mine!! The kids are all enrolled in school, I have a job interview this coming Friday and it is all action stations!! Talk to you soon. Don't forget to leave me some comment LOVE now!! You know who you are lol.
