Bits and Pieces

I made the notebooks above using some of my scrap paint backgrounds and my Zutter (current favourite tool) for the binding. Quick easy and satisfying.
The bag on my left is a "Just because ..." gift from my friend Ky and her Mum. It is a bag which folds down into a pocket on the front and is one of a collection they have made for the Animal Protection Society fundraiser. I am so blessed to have received this, and in a work week that has had some particularly difficult times it was especially nice to come home to. The dollies there will appear listed in my Etsy just as soon as I get time.

This wonderful copper (and you know how much I love copper) collage is my INKrediblyRt Mystery Muse gift from Vanessa. I keep running my fingers over that embossed background.
I couldn't resist this picture of Phantom and Harvey - but I get the impression Harvey wishes I had :)
I am hoping the shame of having a blog photo up revealing my dirty windows might also make me clean them...I will let you know how I go w ith that one.
Enjoy the weekend.

Beautiful goodies as always.

Your windows are no worse than mine.

What a glorious post - so full of beauty! Hoping you aren't all awarded out - I've just passed on a blogging award to you - no obligation "to play" but details are on my blog!

Such delicious stuff Julie! Love the notebooks and I know how you feel about the windows - I was forced into cleaning mine due to the imminent arrival of the new glass for the extension!

Fiomone will be in the post Monday.

Cheers!

This is a beautiful post Julie. I think these new notebooks are some of your nicest (and that is saying something!).

Such beautiful and textures.

The Mystery Muse from Vanessa is lovely. What a beautiful embossed background!

And I LOVE the photo of Phantom and Harvey. A snapshot of your home life. Harvey looks like a different cat from the first day you brought him home. He looks so content and cuddly. I just want to smooch him!

Much love from me and the kitties.

P.S Broadband is EASY to install - and once you try broadband you would never want to go back to dial up!
