Slice of Sunday

Finally



Cleaned off my desk, so I treated my self ( and made a new mess.......), and played with some of my new stamps! Just a quick lil Christmas Card.

Ps wanna know the best dollar I have ever spent.  Boring, ( for now anyway. )but heaven when waiting for the bus ( or for this coming Tuesday - The Bigs presentation day - always held out side)!

Small toot of my own horn!

All quiet on the western front


Possibly the most boring picture in the world, yes?
This week has been sort of a bust. Im having a very Flat week, even scrap Tuesday ( which might I add was actually even held on a Tuesday this week!) was a bust. I watched daph scrap while I painted a few things and paced waiting for the air con men ( 4 hours late and then it took them 4 hours to put it in!). I have been planning in my head though ( and can I call reading the new Scrapbook Creations research???)  for a few things I want to try. 

So the white house eh? You wanna know what that is about.
I was sitting at the table, having a cuppa, daydreaming and staring at the empty beer six pack holder that Rod had left on the table ( yes the bin is only a step away incase you were wondering), thinking that might be useful to hold some paints. So staring and thinking, I noticed it was house shape, and I have always wanted a christmas house decoration.........
Then reading my blogs I notice this challenge,. at the wonderful Design Dollies. So what we have there is the beginnings of a white christmas house. A house in desperate need of a renovation.
Corrugated cardboard roof isn't completely attached ) just sits with a slit for the handle to stick through) as I thought I might hide some lil lollies in there. 
The Plan was today, to hit my local vinnies and get a bag of old decorations, to attach and spray paint ( esp. as now the big and the sweet middle want to get in on the act). I forgot one very important thing though. My local vinnies strongly believe there stuff is dipped in 5 carrot gold and over price everything. So no decorations from there today. Will have to get more creative and think out side the box!

I had another 5 mins


The boys are busy playing Wii, so just using what ever I could reach at my dining room table.

Would of preferred the tree to be a bit more dimensional, but my pop dots seem to be on a rendezvous with my white gel pen!!!!!! Hope they send a post card soon!

Report card says

Does not play well with purple.


 I found Design Dollies challenge site and saw the monochromatic purple challenge. Thought Id give it a burl, with out thinking exactly how little purple anything i owned!!! Not overly in love with the lil card I made, loved it more before DM and I had a tussle and I had to do the top scallops in DM.

What I am in love with is the fact I won some stamps HERE!!! Not just stamps, Drool worthy Christmas Stamps!

Ps the bottom of the paper i used as ribbon is torn and but just realised you cant tell in this pic and it just looks crooked!

Late night scrap




Just a lil scrap from last night as I was suffering from withdrawals and have a budgeting appt ( free service I thought Id take advantage of to try and get my head around budgeting when you get different amounts from week to week) today, instead of scrap tuesday with my gals. Bloody awful photo, will try and fix that this arvo!
