"Millefiori" or 1000 flower beads.
Love them! :-)
See the complete range in the 'new products' section of the shop.

Today I did this layout. I have been planning this page in my head for a few weeks. You probably can't read the text but my niece was asking some very funny questions about cows! I'm really happy with the end result.



I also baked my favourite biscuits....... choc chips! Yes I love anything with chocolate!

The first week I arrived in Brisbane I bought a bike helmet and today, 9 months later went for my first ride!! Yeah!

Unusual hey! Everyone who has seen this new ribbon loves it. I can't wait to use it!

It is one of the 5 new satin printed ribbons I added to the shop today.

I also added new stripe ribbons and classic stitched ribbons.

Have a great week end! I will be writing a LONG list to organise myself in the lead up to the Brisbane paper crafts festival. :-)

Today is exciting as I have my new blog template, complete with this great new colour scheme..... thanks Paul. I love it! I have been looking at various blogs all week after visiting a gorgeous fabric store in Sydney called Material Obsession. I loved their fabrics and have since spent many hours devouring inspirational blogs. Using an extreme amount of self control I left the shop with just one piece of fabric to make a bag! It is a stunning orange and lime green paisley..... so me!
