My Favorite Gal!!

Hi Friends & Happy Monday to ya! Just a short post for you today cuz' I am busy, busy today. My room is soooo close to being picture perfect ready for ya, but a few more things to do first and then I'll share pics. Needless to say, hubby & I are exhausted from moving furniture, painting & carrying stuff up & down stairs. My old craft room will soon be hubby's study on the main level (it was downstairs in our basement (finished area))--his study will be Riley's new "playroom/hangout area" and I took over the old playroom upstairs on the second floor--whewww! Next weekend we'll move all his huge, heavy study pieces upstairs & organize but we're tuckered out---plus we need help moving that stuff, too heavy for me! But I must say I have too much stuff, hee hee--but it's all organized & put neatly away & I LOVE my new room! So clean & fresh---tiffany blue & black/white toile/zebra print! LOVE IT!! LOL! Most importantly it doesn't feel like my stuff is going to fall on my head & overtake me anymore, hee hee! Ack---my old room was a MESS I tell ya! Hope to have pics for you on Wednesday!!

NewsBitz:

-New Victoria Case for SCACD will be released this Friday at Susana's Custom Art & Card Design! Blog Candy will be on the store blog HERE starting this Wednesday, and the DT will have Sneak Peeks on their blogs starting Thursday for ya! They are CUTE!!

-Stampin' Up Stamps for Sale HERE still! I am adding more to my list for tomorrow (alot more, hee hee)

**********************************************
Today's card was made for this past week's Friday Sketcher's challenge #65--great sketch! I used the fabulously cute "Emma" from Elisabeth Bell for SCACD line! The dp is by Basic Grey's "Eva" and the flowers are a mix of Petaloo & Prima roses! She's got a little bling on her sandals & headband with diamond stickles too! And those lovely pearls are actually Bella Baubles in Oyster found HERE! I "FOUND" some (ok, alot) of unused stamps that I had (gasp) and one of them was a fabulous sentiment set from Hanna's Stamps--such cute handwritten sayings!

Just a lil' closes-up of this cutie--love the lil' kitty :o) The Copics used to color Emma are all available at Susana's Store HERE and they are in the NEW SJD Copic Bundles that I've put together (New Blonde, The Pinks, & The Greys")!!

That's all for me today--I'll see ya back here tomorrow!

hugz,
Suzanne

  18. I love anything Jane Austen. My fav is Pride and Prejudice. I love how the late 18th Century is depicted in Austen's books. And I love how two very unlikely people; the spirited Elizabeth Bennet and the snobbish aristocrat, Darcy meet and immediately dislike each other and then fall in love deeply.
