Ok...it is teeming down with rain...has been for 2 days...feel like I'm back in Scotland!!! I'm going to look for that badge today lol.
Shelly and I went downtown yesterday for a bit of sister bonding. We had a great time...lunch at the Cactus Club and a bit of retail therapy. I didn't bring a proper jacket with me so picked up a nice one to keep me dry :-D
I took these pictures as we were driving over the Oak Street bridge. The city changes every time I come home and this time is no different. There seemed to be more buildings than ever.
This is BC Place where they play football (not the football with the round ball) and once upon a time this is where the hubster played football (the round ball game oka soccer) when he was at the Vancouver Whitecaps. It used to have a marshmallow type roof ... it was a fabric type material that was kept up by fans (not the human kind lol) but now they're installing a retractable roof. It's a bit of a shame because you associated the stadium by the roof and I don't think there were many like it in the world.
I made a few cards the weeks leading to my departure. When I did the crop the other week and we did the Cupcake Cutie clipboard, I had stamped out the image of Wagon Full of Cupcakes a few times and started to colour them in. I didn't want to waste them so finished a few off and this is one of the cards I made...
This is another tutorial from Lindsey...it's a slider/spinner card. I made one years ago for a friends daughter who turned 3 and she (the little girl) was so fascinated by the image going back and forth she ripped apart so she could get the penny! I was so traumatised I haven't made one since lol. It took me forever to make it as I didn't have a tutorial back then. Where were you when I needed you Lindsey????
I stamped the sentiments on white cs and placed it behind the window.
It's really cool...Wagon Full of Cupcakes just rolls side to side
Part 2 of the hairdressing saga starts at 11am. So far so good ... I love what Shelly's done though she was a nervous wreck when she was cutting my hair the other day lol. She's been cutting hair for over 5 years...trained with Aveda and is amazing but I think the thought of disappointing me put her over the edge lol. She needn't worry and if anyone is needing an awesome hairdresser in the Langley/Surrey/Abbotsford/Whiterock area I'd highly recommend her!!
Best get ready...can't be late!
Catch ya later x
