WOYWW

I left home at 6h15 this morning and only walked back into the house at 17h03 South African time, so thats why I am so late today. I can't believe its time for WOYWW again. At least I have something to show for this week, I did not walk into the house empty handed, I collected a parcel from the Post Office. My order from Wild Orchid Crafts YAY!!!
Cut the box open at lightning speed and then remembered it was Wednesday, so ran for the camera (If you are wondering what I am going on about, visit our leader Julia at ( http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/ ) and you can also become an addicted stalker of desks!)
And here it is, in all its glory and so worth the wait! Lots and lots of lovely flowers and some trim and some seam binding, yummy stuff I tell you.
I have been crazy busy making cards, because the art teacher at school asked me to do a display of my cards at our school's annual art exhibition. Murphy's law my stock is at an all time low, so sorry everybody, I can't stay and chat, I have to start making some cards. The exhibition is tomorrow, so maybe I will be able to show you all my hard work on Friday.
Have some other very good news to share - I am going to America!!! CHA here I come. Need some advice from those of you that are pro's at this. Where do I stay (gotta be cheap, remember I pay in Rand) , what do I have to do and see and buy? Well, any advice would be great.
Have a fantastic week.

  1. Good luck with getting enough stock for the exhibition. I need to get more into my stick box too, for all the times when I have forgotten a birthday or anniversary. Still, with that box of goodies, you have plenty to play with. Exciting!
