Filed under: Random Musings... — Tags: , , , , — moralia @ 9:35 am

Good morning ladies!   I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine’s Day!! I want to thank everyone for the Birthday wishes!   I had a pretty good birthday, and got some scrumptious gifts!! From my dh & kids I got these amazing gifts…

Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8!! LOVE IT!! I took all my card kit pics with it.. super fast & sharp! I’m quite happy with it!!

 

 

I also received a Nikon SB-600 Speedlight flash…

Also received a gift certificate to my favourite online bookstore.. Chapters/Indigo!!

My best friend Michy took me out for lunch at my favourite restaurant ever, East Side Mario’s, and she gave me a chocolate brown COACH wallet that looks like this more or less.. (haven’t snapped a pic yet)

, a couple of the cutest little stuffie thingies that she found me on Etsy,

She also gave me some dark chocolate! YUM!!

So after lunch we head off to the market for cupcakes.. yum! Here’s a pic of the market, and the cupcakes from the CupCake Shop!

We also went to the Tea Haus while we were there and I grabbed about 7 bags of loose leaf tea.. the tea from this place is heaven on earth… sooo good! Michy got me hooked on it! YUM!!! While we were in there I noticed they had the Taj Mahal built of Lego! Is this not super cool?? I only had my 10-20mm with me or i’d have gotten some close ups…

Ok.. now let’s move onto my L’il Scrappers Card Kit Reveal!! We used the always fun Three Bugs in this kit… lots of bright & fun paper and embellishments… had fun with this kit! Here’s what I created with this kit…

 

 

Phew!!! Still with me ladies? LOL!!! Ok then… this scrumptious kit will be up for pre-order later on today!! Enjoy!!!

***

Now let’s see some BLOG CANDY shall we? I bought the new Making Memories Chloes Closet and am going to share!    I have a bunch of 6×6 pcs of Chloes Closet pp, (18 I think?) some MM/Prima blossoms, misc. ribbon, scrumptious buttons/brads, some chipboard, bling, Maya Road Sheers, and MM journaling tags!! Take a peek!!!

Now… you can do 2 things to either get 1 or 2 ballots into the draw….

1. Post and tell me what your favourite paper manufacturer is!! This is for one ballot!

2. Link up my blog candy on your blog, *THEN* come back and comment with your fave paper manufacturer *AND* letting me know you’ve linked me up! That’ll get you 2 ballots!

I will draw for a winner in a few days time… :)

And.. that’s the end of my neverending post today..    hope you’re still with me!!

Well that’s it for today ladies!! I’ll be back tomorrow with my BBTB challenge, a couple toots, & my last Scrap Addict card! Have a wonderful day!!

  1. Love all of your cards as usual Carla! I’d have to say K&Co. has my favorite papers…if I have to pick a favorite! There are just so many gorgeous papers out there that it’s hard to pick! ~~Pam

  2. Hmmm… my favorite paper manufacturer. I am a CTMH consultant and used to only use their product. Thanks to all the wonderful blogs like yours I have ventured out, don’t really know who my favorite is, perhaps Me & My Big Ideas since that is what I seem to be using most of the new stuff I bought! I have linked you on my blog!

    Comment by Laurel — February 15, 2009 @ 9:55 am

  3. WOW, look at all these great cards!!! WOW!
    And what very pretty blog candy! I put a link to your blog candy under my Blog Candy list that always stays at the top of my blog. :)
    My favorite paper manufactures is BoBunny because I love the thickness of it and double-sided designs, which I could get more of it but it’s a bit pricing at my LSS. Too bad Michaels or ACMoore doesn’t carry it. But for more affordable paper I love Paper Pizzazz for all the fun papers they have especially the ones designed by Kelly Panacci! :)

    Comment by Nikki — February 15, 2009 @ 9:56 am

  4. phew!! looks like you had a fun birthday!! Love ALL the cards today, thanks for sharing

    Comment by Maria — February 15, 2009 @ 10:01 am

  5. WE ARE LINKED…http://www.mycraftivity.com/nayhddy … 2 ballots for me please!
    IT WOULD BE SO MUCH EASIER TO SAY MY LEAST FAVE PAPER… I GUESS MY FAVE WOULD BE MELISSA FRANCES.At least i like all of her paper whereas other manufacturers i like just some of there papers. Having said that i might add how springy these Chloe’s closet papers are and they make me feel happy. Thats what giveaways are suppose to make you feel huh? Thanks so much for the thoughtful giveaway, ms.cheryl

  7. Hi Carla!

    Looks like you had an AWESOME birthday girlie!! WOW!! Thanks for giving us a little tour of your day! How sweet of you to offer up this wonderful blog candy!!! I have linked you up on my blog today and my favorite paper is Basic Grey! THANKS for the FUN! HUGS!

    Comment by DeeDee — February 15, 2009 @ 10:16 am

  8. Wow, looks like you were a lucky girl for your birthday.

    Your photography is amazing, the pictures you have taken of those cards is so crisp and clear. Those cupcakes look adorable, it hasn’t as yet taken on in such a big way in the UK but they are starting to creep into the shops slowly. Your’s look scrummy.

    Love the bright summery colours in the blog candy you are offering. Thanks for a chance to win.

    My favourite paper manufacturer at the moment is DCWV. I love their fun ranges, the affordability and the glittery cards are to die for. It’s good quality for the price and I like bright colours which most of their ranges are.

    Thanks for the opportunity to win :)

    Comment by Made by Mandy — February 15, 2009 @ 10:19 am

  9. Happy Belated Birthday!!
    Love all the cards you squeezed out of your kit!!
    My favorite paper…I say a three way tie between
    October Afternoon, Basic Grey and Scenic Route.
    Carrie

    Comment by Carrie — February 15, 2009 @ 10:23 am

  10. I love your never ending posts… They’re my favorite!!

    Okay, I think that I decided that my favorite pp maker… Is … Hambly. For now. That is just because you pressured me though. I like more… but that is the first that came to mind!!

    I also blogged about your blog candy http://scrappin-a-rose.blogspot.com/2009/02/blog-candy.html

    :D I was wondering the letters on your cards of your reveal… What are they? the “Fun!” and “hb” are awesome!

    Comment by Adrienne — February 15, 2009 @ 10:45 am

  11. UGH … I love October Afternoon too… I can’t just pick ONE. LOL

    Comment by Adrienne — February 15, 2009 @ 10:46 am

  12. Happy belated birthday! Mine was last Tuesday! I got a lens for mine too! Love all your cards!!!

    My favorite paper right at the moment is October Afternoon!

    Have a great week!

    Comment by de — February 15, 2009 @ 10:51 am

  13. Happy Birthday to you!! Glad to see you got spoiled!!

    My fav. paper manufacturer is Crate Paper – love that the back is a coordinating “solid”, and love the thickness as well. And they have some of the yummiest patterns too!!!

    Comment by Margo S. — February 15, 2009 @ 10:58 am

  14. Happy Belated Birthday! It looks like you had a great time.

    My favorite paper manufacturer is Close to My Heart (I am a consultant, and I truly love their paper). I also like Making Memories and Little Yellow Bicycle. They have some beautiful collections!

    Thank you for the opportunity to win!

    Comment by rebecca.k — February 15, 2009 @ 11:09 am

  15. Wow, what great birthday gifts! This is the first time I’ve visited your blog. I don’t know where you live, but that Market if fabulous!! We don’t have anything like that where I live.

    Anyhoo, thank you for the opportunity to win some yummy blog candy. I’ve created a link on my blog for an extra chance, how fun!!

    Thank you! http://www.teojax.blogspot.com

    Comment by Kandi — February 15, 2009 @ 11:14 am

  16. Oops, I forgot to mention my favorite paper. I love My Mind’s Eye. Their “Tres Joli” line is one of my favorites. They have such great, thick, textured cardstock.

    Thanks again!

    Comment by Kandi — February 15, 2009 @ 11:16 am

  17. Hi again~

    I’m sorry for double posting, but my original comment didn’t show up. I wanted to say that this is my first time visiting your blog and it’s great. I’m not sure where you live, but that market of yours is fabulous. We don’t have anything like that where I am. We do have a great outdoor market called Portland Saturday Market, but I want one like yours!!

    Thank you for the oportunity to win that yummy blog candy. I posted a link to this post on my blog as well.

    Have a great day!!

    Comment by Kandi — February 15, 2009 @ 11:21 am

  18. Hi Carla,
    Happy Belated B-day, looks like you had a great day!
    I would say my favourite line right now is My Minds Eye~
    Love their stuff! Thanks for a chance to win the lovely goodies :)

    Comment by Ellen — February 15, 2009 @ 11:26 am

  19. Oooh, great blog candy! Thanks for the chance to win! That Chloe’s Closet line is SO cute! I like a lot of paper manufacturers, so this is tough! I think I’m going to have to choose Basic Grey, because of the sheer volume of their paper I own. I love that they make 6×6 pads with the reduced-sized patterns.

    Comment by Kim Ross — February 15, 2009 @ 11:38 am

  20. Hey Carla! Happy belated Birthday! Looks as though you had an amazing day!
    I got a lens from my husband on my birthday back in December.
    I love all your cards today, they are stunning! I also love when you post pics,
    you’re great with your camera! Enjoy all your new toys!
    I would say Basic Grey is my favourite paper!!
    Thanks for the chance to win! Have a great day!

    Comment by Sharon Caudle — February 15, 2009 @ 11:45 am

  22. You have been a busy little girl…..your cards are always for FABULOUS!!!
    I really haven’t laid my eyes on a piece of paper that I didn’t love. LOL Right now I am using lots of the yummy BG papers. Ask me next week and I will probably tell you something else. ;)
    Wowser girl that is quite a package of blog candy and would be loads of fun.

    Comment by Linda — February 15, 2009 @ 11:50 am

  23. Thanks for the fabulous eye candy in this post. The pictures from your birthday and your projects were all fun to look at. I have two favorite paper manufacturers so I’ll tell you one now — Making Memories — and link up to tell you the other.

    Comment by LInda E — February 15, 2009 @ 11:52 am

  24. I recently discovered your blog thru another and your projects are so greats. Really inspires. I’m new to crafting so only know a few lines, but so far I like Sasss Frass (i think that’s what’s it called) but I also like solid cardstock too. Thanks for the chance to win.

    Your cards… So many cards! I am shocked… when do you have the time to make them? And they all are so adorable… Their colors remind me spring and flowers…
    What my favorite paper manufacturer is? I really don’t know… I love Heather Bailey’s papers (by Autumn Leaves), they are so beautiful! And I love S.E.I.! They have lovely papers… And what about American Crafts and October Afternoon? They are so great too… Hmmmm… I think you got my idea – It’s just so hard to decide! :-)

  82. Soo glad you had a nice birthday! I was drooling over those photos of the market. Reminds me of my days living in Boston & going to Fenuil Hall. You’re not too far from me across the border (ok, well 5 hours maybe?).

    My favorite paper company lately has been My Mind’s Eye & SEI. I can’t pick between the two!

    Thanks so much for the gorgeous candy.

  100. Oh there are soo many right now, MME, Sassafrass Lass, October Afternoon… I could go on and on – they have all come out with such fun papers this year its hard to choose… but my go to manufacturer is almost always Basic Grey — they have a nice variety of styles. I can almost always find something in one of their lines to go with what I’m working — especially now since they came out with that Lime Rickey line… perfect for layouts about an active toddler boy!!

  110. Where is this place you ate at, the cupcake place and the tea place!!!!! Curious minds want to know! Happy belated birthday and many more to come. Favorite paper – I love the Basic Grey stuff but really only have a couple sheets. My local store doesn’t have much so I tend to get a lot of the SU and CTMH. The colors and patterns of the Basic Grey just leave me drooling. Also, I loved your cards. So much fun! Thanks for sharing them.
