Rusty Ozzie and tagged...

Look my 'Ozzie' isnt he beautifully rusty and gorgeous.

Ok I have been tagged by the wonderfully fab Philippa http://www.limetart.com/twistedlime/

This what you do.

1-Link the person that tagged you & leave a comment on their blog so that their readers can visit yours.

2-Post rules on your blog

3-Share 7 random people at the bottom of your post, linking their blog. Let each person know by leaving a comment on their blog.

So here we go 7 boring facts about me that you may or may not know...

1- I drive a 1966 or was it 69 pink VW beetle and love her, her name is 'Chrissy' not named by me, but a previous owner.

2-I have been with my hubby since I was 14. He used to dink me home from high school on his BMX on his handle bars. Thats love right then and there....

3-I am obsessed with many things, one I will share is I love watching Martha Stewart.

4-I have just been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

5-I am a serious night owl, hate mornings, adore late nights.

6-Love animals of all sizes shapes and forms. Have 3 dogs and bird name Howie after the last Aussie PM John Howard who rambles on and on and on, as my bird does repeating 'What you doing??'

7-Told you I was boring, if your still reading this I should send out a medal to you. Seriously addicted to making and swapping ATC's as long as you come up with the theme or challenge..

There done, pheww I wipe my forehead of sweat, however I just cant find another 7 people to tag, this is one of those times you go, get off your butt girl and get broadband to make life easier, yet sticks with the vintage feel of dial up and finding, linking 7 people with dial up is seriously not much fun so if you read this, consider yourself tagged.. The cheats way out..

An ATC and tagged...

On Friday night I spent a fabulous evening with some very inspiring ladies at a crop and I managed to make an ATC. That was after I brain strained Jen http://amarkintime.blogspot.com/ (I havent figured out to link blogsite to name yet) and we made a little Jen heavenly house charmy thingamjig that I just love and havent stopped touching since Fri night...(its sooo nice...)

However afterwards I managed to half complete an ATC using one of Tim Holtz's new stamps. See that 'Good for one fare' coin, the lovely Jen gave that to me, isnt it fab, where does she find these things hey!!! Ok off to think about the next post and how much I am willing to share...I am the shy retiring type you know!!!

Aussie Stampers cyber challenge

Aussie Stampers had a cyber challenge on Saturday night with some very intersting challenges to make before Monday.

The first was an Easter card. I kept mine simple as you can see. The 2nd was create a project with an European feel. So I challenge myself and instead of doing my comfort pillow "Paris", I went with the Neatherlands. To be totally honest, I really dont know if it looks like the Neatherlands, however I had fun playing. And lastly was embossing either wet or dry. I had to go wet because Saturday morning I dropped off all my cuttlebug embossing gear at mum's for her to play with. So I embossed my Zetty wings with gold embossing powder, and stamped a beautiful face stamp onto vintage paper, placed it on a bottle top, that fitted perfectly into the metal frame, then used oodles of ultra thick embossing powder to make it look like it was behind glass.

As you can see I had fun playing over the weekend, and the Eurpeon ATC was using the wonferful new Mad Jak stamps.
