festive mail-outs

One of my best friends had a birthday the other day and because she lives about 10 hours away I decided to send her a surprise in the snail-mail department. Among being sent lots of goodies such as handmade bunting, I made her some beautiful and unique cards... cause I didn't actually take a picture of her presents wrapped up. Annyway.

Below is a picture of her birthday card. ^.^ I think its really cute. I mean, thats a cut out of moses from a picture dictionary with a party hat and presents telling her 'I hear someone's having a birthday!' and then going Yay!

Birthday Card.

This picture is a quick and easy illustration I did on the back. 

And it looks like rudolf! How awesome is that!

I grew up some more this year. This month way the first time I went to the post office (by myself) and bought my very own christmas stamps. Later I also went in and posted stuff! yep. I'm growing up. mind you l'm liking this sending stuff to people business. It's soo much fun!

I'm totally open to doing mailing swaps with anyone out there if anyone wants to give it a go!

(if you do totally let me know hey :P)

Merry Christmas Eve, Bec.

Hhello lovelies. Oh late I have been pottering about my room and the house and cleaning a bit more relentlessly of late. It must be that time of the year because i'm not the only one who has been feeling like they have too much junk. When I was in charge of my Vintage stall at my Churches Christmas event I would see people looking interested in an item, but when offered to purchase it they would reply with a 'no sorry, i'm trying to get rid of stuff and not get more in.' Oh well. I still sold quite a lot of stuff.
So the other day I was cleaning my wardrobe up and decorating my wardrobe, putting up a tad bit of bunting, I noticed that there was a lovely photo opp, so I took it.
I noticed that I also have a lot of purple and dark blue dresses. Hmm there you go.

Yesterday I woke up and decided I wanted Waffles. They were made. = Happy me.
Today we also made gingerbread. Eep! Photos of the adventure later. ;)

Pre Christmas ponderings...but not about Christmas!

scribbling.

Lately I have noticed a growing trend of using geometric patterns in amongst my scribblings and doodles. I'm finding this very interesting and i'm having fun following and exploring the possibilities of this. 

A cup of tea,
      to soothe the soul,
             relaxing nerves unwind.
                    Letting loose
                          thoughts and dreams
                                 engaging heart and mind.

Hello friends :)

Today I have been helping my father build our lounge room floor.

Dad is an owner builder and we have been living in a gradually being finished house for about 9 years now. But, I wouldn't change a minute of it because a not finished house is full of creative potential.

:)

I shall share the story later. :P
