Taking a breather Tuesday

Well today is not my day :( I got a $120 parking fine for the 30 min I parked in front of our swimming school this morning. I thought the fine was totally uncalled for and ridiculous, but I guess that doesn't make any difference, I still got the darn thing. I stopped in front of the neighbours house and there is a very faint and old yellow line there, apparently that means I can't stop there :( So today's swimming cost me what the swimming for katie usually costs for a WHOLE TERM, very expensive swimming lesson that was!! :(

Then we went to the doctors. The doctor got a broad smile on her face while she was listening to an incredibly long and strong heartbeat, she recons we got a strong healthy bub and that is always good to hear, of course just as she said that, the bubby gave her a good strong kick right into where she had her one hand on my tummy, so she the doc had a giggle about that! Everything else is normal, normal blood pressure, normal glucose levels in blood and I'm now seeing her every second week, argh for appointments on appointments.

Just showing you guys what I have been working on, I have been a bit addicted to adding some quotes to my photo prior to printing, it almost looks like a rubon and just adds a bit of something.
If you missed my photoshop tutorial on that one, you can click here



And just wanted to share these two which I haven't shared yet. They were done with Stamp and Scrapbook Madness' Feb monthly kit, which is now sold out, but you can buy alot of these goodies individually in their online store here. Also wanted to point out, those two black flowers are VELVET and they are DIVINE!! They are under Stampendous Class a Peels in the store and you can get different designs and also some are in red and white, some scallop velvet borders, some velvet heart designs and my other hot favourite is their vevelt flourishes, YUMMMMM!!


Okay, my girl just declared that I need to go and colour in the fairies button so I'm off to colour for a bit! Have a fun week!!
