Another Month Bites the Dust

I can't believe it is the end of February tomorrow.  Of course February is my favourite month as it is my birthday month so I am sad to see it go.

My birthday present to me arrived, which I have been super excited about.  It is a set of Prismacolor Pencils picked out by Jane Davenport as well as some skin toned acrylics that she likes to use.  I also purchased a couple of other bits and pieces so that I could get free postage.  The list was way bigger but as our Pool Pump blew a gasket a couple of weeks ago I toned it down a bit.  I'll head back later for Part 2 of the birthday present.

I've been a bit slow on the Life Book Projects, but I have downloaded all the video's and they are on my iPad.  I'm hoping to have some quality time tomorrow with my art supplies so I might get a couple of more projects done... fingers crossed.  Here is the my next finished page and the lesson was by Marieke Blokland.

Month 7 of Wendy Williams BOM came on the same day as my birthday present which means that I am only 6 months behind on that particular project but I am slowly putting the first month pieces together... with any luck month 1 will be finished by the time I get Month 10.





Lots of half hexagons have been cut ready for a sewing marathon some time in the near future might have to arrange a sewing day with the girls for that one..... I just have to cut a heap of triangles to go with them.

I think its essential to buy oneself a birthday gift . You picked well..dont forget to go back –pool pump or no pool pump. We need to buy things we love.

The latest life book creation looks wonderful!

I cant believe Summer is almost done and March is banging on the door...
