The Waffley Waffler, Waffles Returns….

I couldn’t think of a good title and because this is going to be a long one I thought that would be good enough.  I will be back again this evening with my last Just Magnolia Guest card, but had a few things to share, show and tell, that I have been meaning to all week.

**WARNING LONG POST AHEAD…..Grab a cuppa…**

WOW what a busy week so far with the new release of the Hoppy Easter Collection, they are so cute, can not wait for mine to arrive.  Have many plans for a lot of them already, brain goes into over drive when I see new collections with ideas that I want them NOW…. hehe.

I am sorry I have not gotten around to all your amazing creations as of late, but plan on doing a lot of catching up during the weekend…. YAY to Friday here down under.

As some of you know I went for a crafting weekend last weekend to Kristy Young’s and WOW the last time I went I got like 2 cards made was it Princess?  Nothing was working for me and I coloured so many images to use hardly any of them.  And she pumped out like 5-6 cards!  This time I just made card after card and made 6-7 cards….. WHOO HOO was very pleased as all were DT work and so you shall see them soon, and work for the Magnolia Ink Magazine, so if they make the cut you will see them in the next issue.

On the Saturday we had the Deb-a-licious come and craft with us for the day.  I always love when we get to catch up she cracks me up, such a wonderful personality.  Heres a little happy snap of us together….

We went out for mmmmm brunch on my last day, bunch because we stay up to ridiculous hours like 5am both Fri and Sat night and so by Sunday we are a tad on the “I’m going to pass out for some much needed sleep, hehe.”  And so we took photos of our yummy breaky and dessert……WARNING will cause drooling…..

Mine and Kristy’s ice coffees…. Yummmy eggs Benedict *DROOLS* had never had them before but OH MY… My desert half eaten hehehe, I was on the phone when it came and forgot about the taking photos and just dug in…. And then after that was the long drive home :(

I also forgot in my trying to get my sleep back to walking around like a zombie for Monday and Tuesday that I didn’t share my Little Musings DT card….. DO’H and I made something a little different….. Little because………It’s a little card, hehe….

Then when Debbie was there she bought her copics, something I have never used, but always had the….. I need to try them feeling.  After trying them I can say that while I just adore the amaizng work all you copic girls come out with, they are just not for me, give me my distress inks any day.  But I was using them for another DT card I totally blanked out about adding and sharing with you all, that and I am just not 100% happy with the result.  It was for…..
