WOYWW - You got me!

OK, I admit, I was ashamed last week, very ashamed. More so because I got the messy award. It took me three days (yes, I am hanging my head here!) but... Behold! Its a work of art! My desk is clean. I put everything in its rightful place, which theoretically means that I should be able to find it again without too much bother. I managed to visit and leave a comment for everybody lasy week, so I do have some reason to feel good about myself!
Today is going to be a crazy day. I am babysitting my 8mo granddaughter, Gemma, for the day and my other granddaughter phoned her oupa to pick her up too. Tertia-Lee is almost 5, so not too much work, as long as I let her into my craftroom (EEEKK!!!), she is happy.
I am having my regular scrapbooking class too - 4 sisters between 4 and 13! Should be fun, it always is, but I don't know if I will still be able to walk after all of that. LOL I just remembered - my beautiful room!

I have been playing with some more La La Land Crafts stamps from CHA (I think I am slightly obsessed) and loving each one more and more.

All of them were coloured with my Copics and all cardstock is Bazzil. This one has little teeny pearls in her hair and her dress was glitterified with Stickles. The Dp is from a DCW paperstack that I got at CHA. Ribbon and trim is from Realy Reasonable Ribbon.

This one uses some freebie papers from a magazine. She had to get some real pearls of course and the shoes just 'had' to get the Stickle treatment. The die is another new one from CHA and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and my stash. The ribbon is from the local habby man.

How cute are these swimming stamps? This one was so bright that I did not need any more than one sheet of Kaisercraft paper. Even the 'ribbon' is from the same sheet of paper!

Here is the boy version. Don't you just love the goggles and feet? Papers are from a paperstack(DCW I think) the ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon and the charm from my local bead shop.

I have made 18 (yes 18!) La La Land cards this week, so I will show the rest during the next week or so.

Remember to pop over to Julia's blog ( http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com ) to join in the fun!

Well, I better get my hair dried before all those girls arrive at my house, have a great day everybody.

What's cooking at Friday Sketchers?

I have been up since 5 o'clock this morning. So what could I do other than start surfing and reading all of the challenge blogs out there. The first one up was the Friday Sketchers Challenge. It is a fab sketch so I set to work immediately.(http://fridaysketchersblog.blogspot.com I do have all those images I coloured in hospital, just waiting to end up on a card you know.

So here is my card. The Tilda and cupcake was a RAK I recieved in the post more than a year ago (about time I used her huh?) All papers are from a DCWV paper pack that I bought at the Craft & Hobby expo. The only other things I used was one of my new EK punches and some ribbon from my stash.

Hope you like what I did. Please leave me a comment so that I know who came to visit and can visit you too.
