Running late

I've been working the Dunkley's Craft Show all weekend & was called a Mad Hatter in an affectionate way today (I hope) but I'm definitely the White Rabbit going I'm running late this week. But the wait I hope was worthwhile as I share some fab picks for last week (ending Friday).

WCMD is today

Yes the colour renovation is here!

So much "happy colours"  to be seen on everyone's blogs - I'm sure for all of us the news of SU! Colour Renovation was a HUGE shock as we loved our colours so much but I'm so glad they did it now as I LOVE my new colours & it's great seeing so much brightness - just what we need to drive away the gloom that has descended upon NZ in time for the weekend (sigh).

So here's my favourites for the week:

Running late I know

I've had one of those weeks where 2 am has become the norm for bedtime - so busy, must admit it's absolutely fabulous seeing what everyone is creating with the new products and as most of the demonstrators have now received their orders from the new catalogue - I can imagine my job to pick just 9 will get harder again.

Here's this week's dose of fabulousness as seen on NZSU follower blogs from NZ:

So much Fabulousness this week

Gosh everyone is busy blogging as we have new toys to show off, my inspiration folder for the week was bulging - so I threw out all those fabulous projects that used "old stamps" & kept the new - then had to choose between double-ups from individuals - down to about 12 now & then had to decide what took my fancy the most but trust me this was the hardest week ever!

To all our readers from Christchurch I'm sure I speak for the rest of the country when I say we're thinking about you & what shocking news to awaken too but nothing like how you were awoken. God bless you all & keep you safe!

Anne & Nelly the Elephant

Anne Brignall has been busy tonight she's made this really cute elephant called Nelly, with punches but I do see a few monkeys from Fox and Friends - so yes she has stamped.

Anne is a member of Swap Sisters & this was their online punch art project tonight - so if you'd like to know more about Swap Sisters pop over to Anne's blog by clicking HERE and she can help you.

Fabulous project!

Delys Cram
