I love the postman

especially when he brings me big boxes of crafty stuff!

My Scrapstars prize arrived yesterday. look at all this and go green! there are card stock stickers, bags to tart up, cards to use, paper, rubons, tags, ribbons, page pebbles. it is crafting heaven. Thanks so much everyone.

I ahve been working on my circle journal for the Crafts by Carolyn enormous circle journal project. It's the first I have done and I was pleased that I managed to cut the chipboard myself (may have mentioned that before but I am really, really pleased!) and only lost a few cm's trying to get the pieces to match up... I made the inner pages just a little smaller so they don't come out over the side of the journal - well ribbon can (hint hint)
here is the front - Cosmo Cricket paper - yum yum and lots of krylon pen to add bling to stickers etc
and the back has one of Auntie Sarah's bloomers with a button/paper combo in the middle

Hiya Lythan

Thanks for popping by! Nice to see you .....

Now normally i would be VERY jealous of that stash ........ but on this occassion I will shake your hand and say well done and enjoy!

And will then go to the craft table and stroke the stash of Goodies Sue gave me today from her trip to Florida! Ooh FABBY .....

And your CJ is ace. I am trying to work out how to get holes in mine - I need a cropodile thingy yes?? Cos if you say yes I am allowed to buy one is perhaps my reasoning ........

Love Bex xxx
