The Pink Slice is here!

hey all you crafty types!

don't know if you follow Making Memories or not, but they've just come out with the new PINK Slice machine at the summer cha show that ended last week. i already have the lovely aqua coloured one, but man O man i wish i had it in pink! it's just to die for...

my husband is laughing at me saying "you already have one!" yeah, yeah, i know. but a girl can wish, can't she?!

finally it's Friday!

happy friday! it's weird that even though i'm not working right now, i still long for fridays to come along! maybe it's more for my husband so that he can be home hanging out with me. except for this weekend - he's off on a boys' weekend of quading and golfing. but i'm not jealous... really!! (grin)


today's card was made for this week's challenge on the Hero Arts blog. they had a Win-A-Day on the blog contest, and chose 5 readers/card contributors to each get a day on the blog with one of the Hero Arts design team artists all this past week. what a cool contest hey?!

i have been working on wedding themed cards the past couple of days as i will be taking cards to sell at a cool art gallery downtown called eclektica. i was there on wednesday night for a wine tasting & networking event, so i did some... networking! hopefully some card sales will come of it!




















have a fab weekend! i hope we have some nice weather - heard it might rain here. if it shines i'm going to break away from my craft desk (for a little while at least!) and hang out in the yard under the umbrella, a nice cold bevvie by my side!

stuff used:
Hero Arts stamp - floating leaf
Stampabilities - love is a fruit...
cream & speckled green cs
Slice machine - animal crackers & noteworthy design cards
Cuttlebug - swiss dots embossing folder
versamark ink
Hero Arts shadow ink - sage
Draggin' Ink EP - aegean blue
Michaels - pearl stickers
