My Hubby is really supporting my new design team work. He bought me these wonderful card magazines. Which came with beautiful stamps and dies; along with amazing ideas.



Then, my mother's day gift arrived. I new it would be late we agree to do gifts for mother & father's day late this year. We had other things going on during that time. I am very excited about the 150 Prismacolor Premier Color Pencil Set!!! Oh, I also got blending pencils and eraser with it. I also got my tech on with an external hard drive. So, I can start creating videos(Yikes!!! - I can do it!?! Right?!?) and other stuff.



I told you so exciting for me. I am also working on my DT cards and layouts; getting ready for the start date of July 1st for most of them. I already started with Jo's Scrap Shack.

We have amazing challenges and prizes be sure to check it out. Jo's Scrap Shack Fun-day Friday Challenges

It's been a fun filled and exciting couple of weeks for me. I was chosen for Creative Inspirations Design Team, Jo's Scrap Shack Design Team  (I already started) & now I was offered a spot on the Koala T Crafts Blog Design Team.



I won a Prize from Kraftgali! (See post below)  and then, my hubby treated me to some fun shopping. At Michaels - I was so happy to find some Distress Oxide Ink pads. I also got some stamps, stencils, flair, wood veneer alpha & coffee cups, stickers, storage boxes - not shown, alcohol marker -( Mike's brand to try out) & lots of adhesive. Which is not enough - there's never enough adhesive.


I hope you are have a good month, week, day, hour! I hope to be post a project real soon.

I haven't been on here because I have been visiting Goldie. Let me tell you a bit about Goldie, She is just perfect. Goldie is the nickname for my craft room. It's because I use to craft in our walk in closet of our apartment when my hubby and I first lived together. I just made do - It was my little spot.

Then, over the years I got a spot or I should say corner of our living room in our rent house. Some corners where bigger than others but much bigger that the walk in closet. Now, in our house which we bought about 2 years ago. I have a craft room. It's the perfect amount of room. Not too small and not too big. Just like the in 3 bears story. One was to big, one was to lumpy and finally one was just right. So, hubby and I nicknamed my space Goldie. Because well the " just right size bed" seemed a bit weird. 

Now, that you have a bit of back story. I've been hanging out over at Goldie's and creating cards and layouts. I will share some here in the next few days. 

Here is one of the cards I created. I used a digital from Yumpuff - (creates lots of cute chibi  & other style images), A Fiskars stamp - (coffee beans & sentiment), and Tim Holtz stencil. Colored the image with Faber-Castell - Color pencils, Tim Holtz Distress Ink for the background, colorbok- blue dot paper and added a puffy heart on the mug & few sequins. 
   


Thanks for stopping by I appreciate it. Leave me a comment or link me to your latest project.
