Hot Asian

All these stamps apart from the daisy (Stamp Addicts) are from Non-Sequiter stamps. You know I love Asian. My favourite dragonflies are these ones. I added glossy accents to them to make them even more special. Had to have a steady hand to do them like this. The background is brayered with Kaleidacolor Desert Sun.

Here's a closer look at their gorgeous shininess ...

Yesterday I went out for lunch with my Mum and sister. It was sunny out and quite warm. No sooner had my sister applied suntan lotion when suddenly it turned quite cool. We looked up and could see the blue skies had totally disappeared only to be replaced by grey clouds as far as you could see. And the warmth was replaced by a very cool wind. The wind got so windy I thought my coffee was going to fly right out of the cup!

Never mind, I had a lovely weekend. Watched 'Annie Hall' and 'Manhatten' over the weekend, two of my favourite Woody Allen films. So many funny lines in those films, can I remember them now? Nope!

Happy Monday! Thanks for visiting ...

Dragonfly Dreaming


This is a card I made quite some time ago. I haven't used shrink plastic for ages, I must get back into using it. I shrunk some of these dragonflies from Stamp Addicts. Actually the one shown in that link is the small dragonfly, I used the very large dragonfly but I can't find it on the website. Anyhow, after shrinking, I coloured them using chalks and then adhered them to this pretty paper by K&Co. I love K&Co papers but I don't think that one is available anymore.

I'm hoping to get some crafting work done today. The last couple of days I haven't been very productive as I've been busy with other things.

I've been quite busy with dreaming too. I would love to move from my flat to somewhere else, preferably somewhere where the neighbours are not as noisy and where it doesn't cost a fortune to heat the place. So I like to dream of my perfect place to live. And to help me in my dreaming I look at pictures of beautiful houses and perfect rooms. Just take a look at the pictures here!!! Ahhh, heaven, large rooms and big windows, plenty of light streaming in. Lots of space for Miaowski to dance around with her toy mouse. Hmm, I love dreaming...
