New Designs, some LO's and a freebie!

Well, I have had a crappy week, what with my external hard drive falling off my desk and crashing and losing everything, and one of my Labs being on death's door! But at least she has recovered and is doing well, after spending 4 days in doggy hospital. I am busy picking myself back up and realizing there is life after a hard drive crash, and in a funny way it has opened new doors to me, I went shopping for scrap kits for the first time in my life!! And actually bought a whole bunch, it is so exciting. Of course I love the freebie world and will always support it, but WOW, there is some awesome stuff out there!!
And then there was the highlight in my week, the ADSR challenge 6- a messy LO!! Here is my attempt.

"Tortoise Rescue"
The boys rescued this huge tortoise as it was trying to swim across the river.

Then of course I have been busy with CT work. Bonnie van Esch, my sister, has a new kit in her shop at Snap&scrap called Cardboard Graph. Modern with a touch of the whimsical and vintage, her trademark. You can get it HERE

And then Metalmama has a bunch of new designs in her shop at OAKS. These are just two of them, so cute and funky. Get them HERE


And this is what you can do with them. The paper is also Metamama's.

This is my Niece , Emma, such a cutie!

And after playing in Corel Painter, I came up with these Glitter Swirlies, if you would like them.
