VIVAAAAAAAA....

... LAS VEGAS. Is where I am heading v early tomorrow morning so GC will be a bit quiet for a few days sorry! Disclaimer: I know it has already been quiet this week but I promise to have some cool craft action for you next week.

It is my belated birthday trip I planned ages ago and I am looking forward to chilling by the pool with some cocktails and friends, BIG TIME. It just got kind of cold this week in NY so its good timing to hit the 100 degree weather in Nevada.

I hope you all have fab weekends wherever you are, and since I have done no Vegas themed craft (yet) please feast your eyes on what I plan to do as soon as I am off the plane.

Stay here...


Chill by this...


With one of these in my hand...


Party here later...


And hopefully win some of this along the way.


See you next week bloggies!!! xxx

Very very spoilt

Hello there. It has been a week since had some time off to celebrate my birthday and spend time with some surprise visitors, and what an week it was!

I was spoilt rotten by M and co. and had a really great time, not just on my bday but the whole week. Love you guys!!!

AND.... drum roll.... I also got a surprise delivery from all my faves in London....(ooohhhh the tension)...... A NEW PINK SEWING MACHINE!!!!!!

Deep breaths.

I love it so so sewwwwwww much. And have named her so she and I can have convos while we craft.

Meet Odette.


How awesome is that? I am a very lucky girl to have such nice friends who can read me like a book (aka. blog). I cant wait to get started crafting things and sewing up a whole new wardrobe. I might have to start with a new dress for Vegas baby.

I got loads of other really great gifts as well, so a big thank you to everyone who remembered me over here, and also for all the FB posts.

I have so many new craft tools to play with I don't know where to start!

Apple swap!

Look what I got in the mail yesterday...


Yay! I love it, its a small apple to keep me company in the big apple. Thank you so much S, very crafty!


I swapped S a cupcake which I will post once it's twin has reached Melbourne for E. Its an updated version of the ones I made earlier, and I think waaaaay cuter.

Go the swap!

Happy Birthday Harry Potter!
