Hi everyone,
Did you find that this week flew by super fast? I can’t believe tomorrow is the first day of May – that’s got us a third of the way through the year already – too scary!!
My patience was truly tested this week with more computer software problems. This time it was a compatibility problem with the new computer and the website upload software. Sooooo, got some new software and we’re off and going again and should have the rest of the new patterns up on the website today. At least… I hope we do!!
Anyhoo, I did manage to get away from the computer briefly this week for some light art relief, so here’s a sneak peak of what I have been doing.
I can’t reveal all, but these and lots of other pretty papers are for my next project…
my ON-LINE CLASSES.
I’ll tell you more about them next week!!
I did use one of the sheets of handmade paper to make something fun.

Beautiful papers. I showed my kids how to make “cootie catchers” a few years ago. They were forever telling me my fortune
Gail McCormack says
Love the papers!
Looking forward to seeing what you’ll do with them
I remember the Fly Catches (that’s what we called them). Remember there was always “Kiss the nearest Boy” and when you choose that one you’d giggle and turn red! ha ha…
those were the days

Cootie catchers????? As in nits? Head lice even??? Thats deeesssgusting!! Yes I know you don’t spell disgusting that way.
I much prefer fortune tellers and yes they are great fun…can’t wait to see your online classes.
Happy Weekend,
Kiss Noises Linda

I can’t remember what we called them at school but we all had them and like Gail it was always about kissing boys!!:-)
Loving papers – fabulous colours

OMG kerryanne….you have brought back HEAPS of memories with the “catchy” thingeys…
How fast we forget things..
whilst flea market shopping yesterday I found some OLD PLASTIC drink bottles…with the BIG plastic lid..screw top underneath..
They brought back memories of ice drink frozen in them overnight & then taken to school to drink..
AND YES you have made me SMILE with the memories of the “thingey” as i call it..
