Fab news!

For all you fans of hAnglar & stAnglar stamps - you'll soon be able to buy them in the UK as Karen from Funky Kits & Sugar Nellie is going to be producing and selling hAnglar & stAnglar stamps!!! Not sure when they'll be available but keep your eyes peeled :)

The answer is no!

I still haven't made my Dad's birthday card yet! I do have a couple of ideas but that's it. It was far too hot again today to contemplate doing a lot, I pretty much sat and read most of the day, made dinner (mackerel with watercress & spinach salad, delicious!) and pootled about in my craft room for a couple of hours before Doctor Who started :) I had another completed circle journal come home today - really chuffed as it looks gorgeous but also a bit miffed as there's a recipe using something tha I clearly stated in my rules that I'm allergic to & therefore didn't want any recipes with it in :(

I actually inked up one of my hAnglar & stAnglar stamps this afternoon and made a card - I shall be using the other 2 tomorrow as I've got loads of images to stamp for people! I thought this stamp looks really summery and perfect to use on a hot day! I think this is hÄngla med tråd but don't quote me on that, Basic Grey 'Cupcake' papers, SU! ticket corner punch (yay Tonya! I used it, thank you hun!), flower from this month's bloom kit fresh through the door this morning and a random brad from my box of thousands of the things!

Oooof!

It's been so warm here today - really grey and overcast but warm. And the best place to spend a few hours? Definitely not the hospital! Still, it means that I have an appointment free month for a change :) I didn't sleep well last night - thought I'd trapped a nerve in my arm again but touch wood it seems okay just now.

I love this hAnglar & stAnglar image - just wish I had the stamp :) It looks a bit out of kilter in the photo but it isn't really! Image colored in with Prismacolors, Basic Grey 'Sugared' patterned papers, random piece of ribbon and a Doodlebug heart shaped button. I really must get on with making my Dad's birthday card tomorrow - should really have done it today but nver mind!

Exciting!

I got the most fabulous post today - a finished circle journal (it's the one that I pulled out of when I was sick but the girls all did their entries in it anyway) and 3, yes 3 hAnglar & stAnglar stamps! Yippee! I can't believe I finally have some thanks to one of my very lovely S.A.D. friends - I've been itching to play with them since they arrived this morning but I've been good as I had a cj entry to finish off for the recipe cj - this was the last entry so hopefully in a few days I'll be getting another completed journal home.

It's been absolutely gorgeous weather here but of course that means my hayfever seems to go into overdrive - off to bed now though as I have earache too!
