I hold a special place in my heart for Tuesday's while others may just think of it as one more day closer to Friday. They are my day off and they make the rest of the week doable for me!
Today I am about to head on off to the Post office, so if you won one of those RAKs on my blog at the beginning of the month, they are finally on their way. So be on the lookout for them.
After that, I am thinking a swim finally in the pool that sits in our backyard! The sun is out and I think a swim is in order.
Yesterday I received two packages in the mail myself. One was the Housewife Kit created by Mandi and the other was my October Afternoon prize I won over on their blog.
First off, the Housewife kit is really something special. Mandi designed all of the papers herself, which is just amazing, and who doesn't love some indie paper designing?? She also threw in some buttons, vintage pieces, some white and red bakers twine and a great handmade wooden mini album(and I may have listed these all wacky but you can see what the kit includes here)
Now I just have to think of how I am going to go about this whole kit, that's the part where I get stumped, why of course.
Second off the October Afternoon package had about 16 pages of their newest paper that is coming out and two sets of alphas, they have some great stuff coming out. I am in love with a few pieces of that paper they sent me, so vintage and fun. I will make some layouts and share sooner or later.
Well my bicycle finally came and my boyfriend put it all together for me yesterday, there were a few problems such as he didn't attach the brakes!!! NOR did he know that he forgot that. Also we are having a tad problem with the back tire rubbing against the fender, oh and we cant seem to attach that front fender. Small issues, but other then that, the bike is in great condition, I am in love with it.
Last Friday I finally made it over to Portrait Bug which is way uptown(NYC). It was one of those hot days why of course, and the subway was super brutal for such a long trip from Soho. But it was worth it. They had a nice selection of scrap booking supplies and also a portrait studio and a pretty decent size crop room where they hold classes. I also ran into a fellow Scrap in style member who works there, so its nice to know someone in the area. I am going to try and make it to some of their classes this fall when its cooler out and less hectic.
And now I will leave you with a song:)
