New Toys

My postie was very kind to me yesterday. Marie, the lovely owner of Said Simply , & the blogs Pernickety & Artilicious, picked this card as the winner of a competition she ran a while back, & when asked which Fiskars punch I wanted, I said I`d love the treading water one...It took her a while to get (we all know how popular this punch is), but it finally came , & not only that, she also kindly included a beautiful "ladybug" bracelet for my DD who also took part in the competition. She also included some gorgeous bits & pieces (a bottle of Glimmermist, & a "Pink Paislee Pixie Stix"which looks a bit like coloured sugar granules...) Will have to have a play as soon as I get our Christmas decorations up :) Thank you so much Marie.

I also received my gift pack from Victoria, the new owner of SBT50. I won this for my stamped LO (part of the 8 weeks of Christmas challenges), & she must have read that I don`t normaly buy a lot of rub ons, because she included some great words & flower rubons as well as some beautiful velvety flower brads...Thank you ladies so much for your generosity. See, I`m proof that you`ve got to be in it to win it LOL.

Maybe have a go with this month`s theme over at Inkurable Stampers, & while you`re there have a look at Sarah`s "12 Days of Inspiration", or you could try a moo card, care of Marie at Artilicious. Either way, go forth & create something :)
