Contest Extended and a Beautiful layout by Aphra!

Hi Folks!

I've decided to extend the Whimsy Pin contest and add another component to it.... (I'm the boss, so its all good...LOL)

You can win by either posting your beautiful creations using our new Whimsy Pins in the Whimsy Gallery by this Saturday (August 29th).....or by leaving a comment on THIS post!

Here is a bit of scrappy goodness from our previous Whimsy contest winner! Aphra was kind enough to allow me to post these on the blog.... I love this layout! The layers, distressing... Just stunning!

I'll be busy this week working on a couple of special orders (so cute! I promise to post photos soon) and then off to my parents place this weekend to celebrate Dad's Birthday :)

Until next time!

New Pins, New Buttons, New Packaging!!!

As some of you know, I'm trying to get my house ready to sell...and well, what does one do when your house is pure chaos and you have to wait for the paint on the walls to dry (literally!)....You make new Whimsy Buttons and Embellies!

My house is crazy colorful ( see personal Blog for photos ) and the Real Estate agent tried her best to keep a straight face while telling me I should really paint my walls a normal color (IE: Boring Beige) and so that's what I've been doing....As of today, my kitchen is no longer hot pink *sigh* However... the upside is in between the painting, I've been busy in the Whimsy shop! Here are a few things I've been working on this week! Soft Yellow is my new fav color...and look at those tiny kitties! (Dogs to be made this coming week) Oh....and Green and Yellow Pears!


Here is my pin storage...the guys at work donated this big piece of foam (to ship routers/switches) I cut it in half, so one is for drying after I've glazed it, and the other is for storage before packing them up...So I'm no longer poking myself when getting my orders ready! Yay!

And finally, here is the brand new Whimsy packaging that the UBER Talented Kristine has created for me...I'm loving it!!! Big shout out to K, she never ceases to amaze me!

That's it for now!

Cheers,

Steph
