What's wrong with this picture?
I don't mean "wrong" in a photographic sense. I know the lighting is pretty poor and the subject focus is terrible (and believe me when I say that the OCD in me is screaming for the door mat to be straightened!).
I don't mean "wrong" from a Health & Safety aspect either (I refer to the obvious tripping hazard caused by my Internet / telephone cable coming loose from it's clip and the curled up corner of my door mat). And now that you come to mention it, my door really could do with being cleaned (just look at those dirty marks at the bottom *blush* I'm hanging my head in shame here folks!)
No, I don't mean any of the above.
The content of today's Royal Mail delivery doesn't at first glance appear to be of interest or concern. But wait a moment, let's zoom in and take a closer look shall we ...
Do you see it now, do you see what's wrong with this photo? Still struggling? Well look at the date of this post. Today is Friday 24th September 2010. Look at the second photo again. Now do you see what's wrong?

You should never graffiti, right?

*Please note:- I do not condone any other form of graffiti ... it's not big, it's not clever and there are far better ways to express your creativity ... try digiscrappin' instead!!!

Once again I find myself ...
In my defense I have been quiet busy recently because 5 out of the 6 designers I create for have released or are about to release new kits and I've been creating up a storm!!! Do you want to see what I've done (so far)? Here you go ...
Creations By Tinamarie has brought out The Splendor Of Fall and it's such a wonderful autumn inspired kit, full of rich reds and gorgeous greens and comes with a full alpha set too.
Che Yang is back to designing at her very best and she's come up with something wonderful ... no the kit's called Something Wonderful and it has the most delicious selection of patterned papers to play with.
I know if I ever get stuck in the digital doldrums, I'll turn to templates to help kick start my creativity and Che's latest Simple Templates No.8 & 9 are just that, yet stylish templates and super easy to use too.
I was completed captivated by the sweet innocence of Three Paper Peonies' Sugar Heart kit. Jaime has such a good eye for details and all the little darling elements are what make this kit so pleasurable to create with.
Joyce Paul has created a gorgeous new kit called Darker Days and as the name suggests, it's a perfect kit for scrapping about those early autumn walks in the park, kicking up the fallen leaves or spending a cozy evening by the fireside and snuggling with the one you love whilst watching a movie.
And last but by no means least, Fei-Fei's Stuff has released a lovely kit that's just perfect for scrapping about those we love and the little pet names we have for each other. Shaui's Terms Of Endearment has such a fabulous selection of wordart, you're sure to find one you use in the kit!

And so my dear friends, as you can see I have been busy but that doesn't excuse me from not updating you more often ... as my school report often said "Suzanne must try harder" ... and I will. I promise.

How did I ever ...
Do you see it? Sweet isn't it? I didn't hesitate, why would I? I mean, it's not every day that you get asked to join the creative team for ...
Fei-Fei's Stuff
Let me give you just a little bit of history about me and Fei-Fei's Stuff. You see, she was my first [blush] ... purchased digi-kit! I still have it too, it's a kit called Pinkish (it's retired from sale now) and I bought it from oscraps back in May 2008. I wasn't even fully converted to digi at that time, I was still paper scrapping, but had just started to play with photo manipulation and I'd read about digi-scrapping in a magazine article. That same article featured Fei-Fei's Stuff and from the moment I saw her kits, I was hooked. I applied to become a CT member last year and was lucky enough to be offered a 1 month guest spot during July 2009. I was thrilled and thoroughly enjoyed my time on her team. Then, just about a week ago and completely out of the blue, I got a private message from Shaui asking me if I fancied joining her CT again, this time on a permanent basis? Well, I can tell you I thought about my answer for about a millisecond .... "Ummmmmm, YES!"
