BFFL & My new Nikon!!

HELLO! :)
I did a little something for Jessica! You know... something pink! LOL
Hope you like it! I used heart shaped chipboard to hold the ribbon... Some glitter, some heat embossing, a swirl stamp... Take care! And thank you for stoping by and your comments! :)

PS Lots of things are in the works right now... but I can't share just yet!! Looks like in a month, I will be able to start letting you know my little secrets ;)





On an exciting note... I got my NIKON today!! I am super excited!! I have to learn how to use it properly first though! LOL The whole automatic function is great and easy, but I want to learn the ins and outs :)

Here is a pic I took of my baby girl today, Whipette... My 7 year old 3 pound chihuahua... who I love so much!



Also, my sweet and dear friends Pearl and Sollie have tagged me.....
I list 7 random facts about myself and then choose 7 people to tag to do the same thing on their blog. Here goes!

1. I love Vanilla ice cream and perfume... Hence my nick name! LOL
2. I'm completely addicted to scrapbooking...
3. My biggest belief in life: "If you believe, you will achieve"!
4. I am a complete animal lover!!! I have my Chihuahua and my cat - who is almost 15 already!!
5. I check my e-mails and blog every single morning as I wake up.
6. I only began to scrapbook end of October begining of November 2006...
7. I love to travel! I only wish I had the money needed to go where ever, when ever I wanted!!!

I will not choose 7 people to tag as most of you have already been tagged!! However, if you wish, put your 7 random facts on your blog and leave a comment and I will post your links next week!

Take care!!

Designing Like a STAR Contest at the Chalet (week 2)

Hello!!

**Update: The design in the previous post "essence of Vanilla" was accepted on the Basic Grey gallery :) **

Here is my design for the Challenge week 2... A lot of cutting!! LOL
The challenge was to use a circular sketch from Pencil Lines;


*Transparency as a base
*Imagination Project (Morningside Heights) for greens
*Tickled Pink - Journey for flowers
*Cardstock (white, blue, peach & pink)
*Inks
*Pens
*Bling
*Glossy Accents

Since it is a little difficult to take a picture of a transparency type design, here are 2 pics with different backgrouds....



PS: You can still come join the Chalet and vote for me!! LOL

Thanx for looking!! Take care!!
