Drawer

This is a beautiful little chest of drawers that lives in my bedroom. My jewellery lives in the top drawer that you see in the pic.

I have been tagged by my DD Caz:

1. If you could have £100 worth of scrapbook paper or assorted embellishments, which would you choose?

I would buy only cardstock. You cannot have toooo much!

2. If you had to choose between using only stamps or rubons, which would you choose?

mmmmm ok then stamps!

3. If you knew how to do both awesome cards and layouts but could only do one for a whole year...which would you do?

Layouts!!

4. Would you rather own a scrapbooking store or have your own scrapping room at home...(can't have both he he he)

My own scrapping room. It will be as big as my living room (5 by 8 metres.) It will have great shelving, a big table in the middle, space for my sewing machineS, laptop, printers and craft robo. It will have a fridge, kettle, coffee, choccies, and wine. It will be open to the garden, and have a bathroom / toilet. Woo Hoo and I am going to have all of that in December!!!!

5. And last but not least, what is your CURRENT cardmaking or scrapping style.

It has to be BACK TO BASICS. I fear that we have lost much of the spontaneity of scrapping by using all of the expensive embellishments.

I'm tagging in return:

The word today is Window

This is my most favourite window in the house. When the sun shines, the sun catchers and crystals make beautiful stars on my walls and ceiling.

Thanks for all your lovely comments on the weekend. I have just arrived back from Johannesburg and we had such a lovely weekend there seemed to be no time to BLOG (sad face). I will make it all up to you this week!

I should have some lovely shots to share with you tomorrow as we visited a rose farm yesterday to buy roses. I thought I had died and gone to heaven!!!

Oh almost forgot I made a little mini album which is on IACW today. Here is a sneak peek. If you would like to see more please visit IACW!!!

Favourite Spots #3

Hi all. Am now in Johannesburg for the weekend so have no idea how I will do the prompt today unless it fits one of the places I took shots of yesterday!

But I FORGOT I am moving to Johannesburg and this will be my new home. Have I told you that I LOVE towels. And I just love the colour of these which is the same as I have at home!!! They remind me of Watermelon!!!

I am sorry did not get around to your blogs yesterday but my day started quiet and ended in great excitement. I had viewers to see my house and AN OFFER which I accepted!!!! My estate agent was so pleased that we got on line and she made a donation to our breast cancer awareness campaign!!! How sweet was that?

The evening was spent with estate agents sorting out the paperwork and documentation they required.

I am just so excited and they want to move in on the 1st of December 2007! I can now finally get on with the move and my life. Woo Hoo!!!

By the way if you can visit IACW today, Charlotte has a GREAT post on easy peasy "hand made buttons"

My favourite part of my hallway is my beautiful flying magic carpet. I love the feel of it on my toes. Morning all. Just a short post today from me today and tomorrow I will only be on line much later as I am flying to Johannesburg for the weekend!!!!

I went round the house this morning taking photographs of all sorts of odd things in preparation for today's favourite spot. How DAFT is that!

Been to the hairdresser this morning for my two weekly trim. It looks great (I think).LOL.

In case you have not checked IACW; readers have raised 346 pound for Breast Cancer Awareness!!! And we have received 47 entries for out "Scrap your Boobs" challenge! That is just so GREAT. Well done folks.
