My Blog Picks and Posts from Here and There Around the Web #19

Hi All,

 Here’s my latest set of Blog Picks from here and there around the web.  Generally, you’ll see all SU here on my blog but here and there I find inspiration that is eminently CASEable with SU Product so will share that as well with suggestions for alternate stamps and paper.  Feel free to copy and paste this list and pass it around to fellow stampers or customers or whoever.   Keep in mind there is a lot of inspiration out there and these are just a few of what I’ve found that struck my fancy (so it’s very subjective).   If you are an SU demo or customer and would like to see a more extensive list I have newsletters for both groups (free for right now) with more details, FYI, video and tutorial links.  Email me if you are interested.   Now with that plug out of the way here’s this weeks list of links.

http://papervernissage.blogspot.com/2009/11/lunch-anyone.html - I’ve lived a few places that this might actually be literally true!

http://bellacarta.typepad.com/rebecca/2009/12/its-wednesday-wordless-wednesday.html - so like a cat – though in Sandy and Wickets case they would ask for the definition of BAD!  They have no idea what that is!

http://www.angelasargeant.com/blog/?p=1238 - Aussie version of Jingle Bells.  Hmmmm…I think I might need a dictionary.  In case you do too here’s what I found to define unfamiliar terms:

Holden Ute – Aussie version of a an El Camino car/truck

swaggie – an itinerant Australian laborer who carries his personal belongings in a bundle as he travels around in search of work

esky (plural: eskies)

1.     (Australia) an insulated picnic cooler, using refrigerated blocks to keep food cool.

kel·pie ² n.

Any of a breed of sheepdog originating in Australia. (that’s a far cry from the one I learned – a water spirit in the form of a horse that drowned its riders)

***** 

 I hope you enjoyed looking at these as much as I enjoyed combing the web to find them for you.    Time to hit the stamp room while the inspiration is flowing and the mojo is strong!

Hugs and blessings my stamping friends – Jean  

 

Perfect example of my week – LoL!
