{ More RAK Love }

Just wanted to share another RAK I received this week. Linda sent me an email last week to let me know that my June Aloha RAK was a bit late but on it's way. Well...it was worth the wait!! Check out the All Natural Accent flowers she sent me! I have been admiring these on all the Hawaiian bloggers blogs. Now I get to play with them! Thanks again, Linda!

{ Fun with Fred, SU! and SFYTT }

Huh? I know...these titles need some help. ;0)

But, yes...I played with a sketch from SFYTT, a new SU color and some Fred, She Said flowers! I have seen these flowers on Jen's blog for the last little while, but finally took a look at the blog and store...WOW! These flowers are amazing, considering they are just paper! So I thought I would test out one of the freebies from the blog and see how I like them before I make my first purchase. I think I would like the black and white ones...that way I can color them with my Copics to match anything I might need.

I also got to play with the new SU Incolor - Rich Razzleberry with matching ribbon! Thanks to Shannon, all the Calgals got a little sample to try out...she is a very smooth business woman! ;0) I will SO be buying more of this awesome color!!!

And I also tested out THIS sketch over at ihearttostamp.

Thanks for droppin' in today and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

{ Can you help? }


I have a friend of the family who is walking the Weekend to End Breast Cancer. She is walking 60km in two days and doing this in support of her two Aunts and also my MIL who is currently fighting Breast Cancer. She desperately needs more supporters in her efforts. If you feel you are in a position to help, it would be greatly appreciated. You can find Annette's page here. And again...any amount would be greatly appreciated!!


Thank you!
