Happy Mail!



Well, after a lovely day at a preschool pool party, I came home to Happy Mail. My "booty-full" flowers from Paper Goodness came today! I didn't get ALL of the stuff pictured, the wealth was shared, fortunately for all. I would have chosen the ones in the orange package, if I had my choice, but instead I got the paint can -- which I LOVE. The flowers are HUGE (like 3 inches across...) and the can is SOOOOOOOO coool, and the colors are sooooo Fall! I am loving that I am looking forward to using them on Fall projects :^) These are satin, rather than paper, and the colors push me to work in a different palette, which is good for me, too. Cruising over to the Paper Goodness site also allows you to see the very latest Primas coming out. Drool! Maricar was so generous in giving away such wonderful flowers. Thanks, so much!

I have been working hard on my craft area, trying to pull it into line, but it is TOUGH. I am finding I have a lot of stamps to sell, too! I want NEW stuff -- especially those Lizzie Anne Designs stamps I can't get out of my head.

Finally, I also have to share a great tutorial over on Inky Paws Jeanne Streiff's totally GREAT blog, which showcases some _amazing_ works of art. Man, can she color! This tutorial is on a technique called "paper piecing" that I am hot to try...

Off to get some work on that room accomplished. I have just too much to do to get ready to stamp more...
