A Day...

...to remember... and I get to do it all again today too!! Yeeehawwww. So, I promised didn't I? Yes, I will remember to take my camera, and yes.. I will remember to take lots of photo's... and.... erm... I took the grand sum of... ahem... TWO!!! I will take it again today and will try to remember to take more pics...




I do have a good excuse though. I mean really? Sitting me right next to ALL the new Studio 490 GORGEOUSNESS... and what's more... ORIGINAL artwork from Wendy Vecchi... how was I supposed to concentrate right? This is my desk, set up with my stuff along the front... I didn't take an "after photo", you would have been too traumatised lol

So... the lovely Sue Wilson hands me a baggy... it was her own set of Distress Markers... for me to play with!! YAY!!! **THANK YOU SUE!!!!** All I can say is this... yes, I am biased because I lurve Ranger... and because I lurve Distress but these pens? They. Are. Brilliant;, all the properties of Distress, in a marker! And as for the Picket Fence? WOWZERS... it is like magic and I spent most of the day squealing "it's magic" (a la Paul Daniels) everytime I demo'd the technique! That there pic is how Kaz found me shortly after being given the pens.. I know... all that excitement went right to my head! And this one was later on.. I behaved for this pic...


And finally.. yes, one of me demo-ing the Markers... many thanks to Dawn Bibby for taking this pic and Tweeting it... yes, my phone is still steampowered so I had to wait til I got back to Lionel Laptop to be able to see it!



Right... I am away to bed... am scheduling posts again... I have a cozy corn pillow with my name on it for my aching back... grrr... one of the downsides of having a fun filled day... still, it is worth every creak and groan just to be able to be a part of it :O)) Thanks for looking and to all you lovely peeps who popped by to see me today, it was lovely to meet you all!!! TTFN

Wow, Hels your demo desk looked fantastic. What I wouldn't have given to see that and Wendy's stuff too.

Lucky you trying out the markers. Boy do I need those! Must seriously get saving some pennies as there's far too many new must haves heading our way. Wendy alone could bankrupt me, lol!

Hope you've had another fab day today.

Hugs
Lesley Xx
