Not enough hours in the day

Morning everyone,

Well have just got back from the shops, popped into my local scrapping store in Aspley to have a look and came back with a couple more prima vines gosh those are so addicting I always seem to buy them whenever I go there, and picked up another distress ink, some modge podge and crackle, and then I got some Websters embellishments and a K and Co pack of acetate diecuts which I spotted the last time I was there...
I'll be so stalking my postie as I just ordered from My2angels last night and brought Graphic 45's Romantique papers gosh those are just so beautiful, so if you haven't been there then click on the link and have a look for yourself, Tracy's prices are so good....

I also picked up a hanging clock from HomeArt today I was there to buy a scratching post for our Keiko here is hoping he uses his claws on this and not the couch and spotted the little clock hanging up on display and of course my mind was filled with scrapping it...  Oh the possibilities also found something that I want to get next time to decorate and turn into an OTP so will have to go back for sure now....
Okay I have done a few of my Feb ATC's that are for a swap at Scrap therapy, the Theme is Love is in the air I found a little picture of an angel and have sat her over a pink distressed flower I've added a bit of texture  to the flower with a puffy velvet felt marker pen.. Then I just gave it a coat of crackle medium over the top of the image...Just remembered I was going to add a little button to it so need to go back and do that now before I forget...
Okay here is a question for you if you could only buy one brand of scrapping paper what would it be?
For me of course it would have to be Websters....

Hi Maria, i guess my fav papers are Kaiser... not very glamorous but they suit my style of scrappin!!

Maria, the heart on the ATC is a stamp i have , i stamped it on black paper with pale pink ink and then outlined it in PinkKinda Glitz then cut it out and gave it a coat of clear gloss varnish, and yes i have some hearts left to make one for you to swap xxxxx

luv the clock!!!!

Hi Maria,
I would probably go with Kaiser too. You asked about attaching the hearts to the snowflake decoration .... I laid down a strong thread and glued the hearts to it back to back, so that they are double sided, then threaded one end through the tips of the snowflake and knotted it. Very simple. BTW, I love your nature pics, how gorgeous!

That is a tough question Maria, only one?
Ok let me think, I really love Crate Paper, but Scenic Route was once my all time favourite, but now they are gone. Scrap within Reach are always gorgeous.
Hmmmmmmmm, I think I will have to agree with Noriel, Kaisercraft for me.
