A New Hobby...


We spent a few days away holidaying at Shearwater resort recently. Whilst walking around the shopping complex just over the road from the resort, I spotted a lovely little shop called Paperdolls Scrap'n'Card. I fell in love with all the pretty cardstocks, ribbons and lace! I purchased a few things, in pic below. I was given some catalogues by the owner of the shop to take and have a look at...my mind was racing with all the ideas for scrapping, journals and cardmaking!!! 


I came home searching the internet on cardmaking and all the products available, and was quite overwhelmed at all the products available! Let's just say that the postman is going to be very busy delivering parcels next week! hehe!

A new shop opened up here in town a few months back, which I only managed to visit yesterday...and look what I found

the prettiest vintage lace, old postards and vintage buttons

They are going to come in very handy!!

all these ideas have had me looking back through my old journals, one of them Helen Stubbings "Life is Beautiful' journal. I really loved decorating the cover with my handmade crochet motifs and vintage laces and buttons from my stash. And now I have a few more to work with!(If I can actually cut into them that is)lol

Yes Life is Beautiful! Oh the excitemaent of finding a new hobby!

Bye For Now

Scrapbooking and card making are so fun, but it can get very expensive. I've been doing it for 15 years and I can't imagine how much I've spent through the years! Have fun!

The HP printer installation is one of the easiest thing to do and can be done even by that person who is having limited technical knowledge related to the printing world. Visit the HP printer site and enter your HP Printer Model Number in the search tab. The list of all the drivers will appear in front of you. Download them one by one.

Nice post keep writing.The first thing we have to understand is what is dramatic irony? This term is certainly not new, instead, it was coined centuries ago by Aristotle. It drew our attention, because of its interesting nature. As a literary device and technique, this was used in the comic genre. Many authors who portray characters in comic style use this irony with various degrees of variance. You will be surprised to know about the numerous forms and types this dramatic irony can take; so before I throw light on these facets, let’s see how does it work?
