SWEET!

In more ways than one!
First of all our driveway and patio is done! I can finally get in and out of the house without depending on someone else to push me along planks. We spent the weekend cleaning and setting up our patio furniture. It looks great! A trip to the nursery to buy a few flowers and we'll be all set. Mind you the deck rails, soffits, fence, landscaping, lighting and painting all still need to be done - but the mud and sand is finally gone! The rest I can put up with. Free at last!
Secondly, my scrap 'space' is almost done - YAAY!! We bought shelving, baskets and boxes from Ikea and spent 2 days putting it all together. My hubby assembled the shelving units (4 in total) while I assembled the Baskets (7) and Boxes (18) - yeah I know - even those need assembled! And the boxes had screw type thingys in them so they took ages to do. Anyways, everything is set up and my scrap supplies are organized. The dining room (that I share my space with) is also set up - we just need to hang pictures and add a light fixture over the table then I will share a pic. But it looks Sweet - much sweeter than I had thought it would. This makes me a happy camper - I mean, scrapper.
Lastly, I received a fully loaded pizza box from The Paper Passion. Not only was it Sweet but it contained the 'Sweet Fairy' Line from Prima.
This paper is so cute. My daughter is grown now so I have no little girls to scrap for but this paper can be used for anyone of the feminine nature - young or old alike. I love the glimmer stickers that go with it and also the journalling tags. I haven't done a lot with it yet but I did make a 'Thinking of You' card. I hadn't scrapped for soooo long and when I received my pizza box I just HAD to make something! I have been working on another project that I will post next week but in the meantime I am going to pull out the 'Sweet Fairy' again along with all my beautiful Prima flowers and bling and create a layout of my adorable niece.

For now, here is a pic of the card.



And a closeup showing the cute glitter stickers.




Well, that's all for now. Thanks for looking - off I go to play! :)
