Insanity... I am trying Topcities again

Don't know how long it will last, so if you need anything, snag it now...
I've painfully re-uploaded my website (don't know why, but FTP just doesn't work this time around, I tried, waited, tried another day, another week, it does NOT work!) . Here is where you'll find it.
It still annoys me to be on Topcities, so if you know of another free server without annoying popups, which allows FTP uploads, leave me a message!
So I won't be adding much to the "Stampamajiggies" section here... but I am not sure I will upload my website much either.
Here's a little piece I created for Krafty Lady, recently. For fun. Those Collections tiles are quite addictive! They are so small and so much fun to make. I hope you enjoy this bit of Eye Candy!

I am aware many of the links on my website are broken, but I think the most important ones are working, like the index of Australian Magazines.

Well that's it for today. I also updated the column on the left, and will probably delete the post I made about links (to artwork made and received) as I noticed some of those links were duds.

Thanks for stopping by.

Textures and inspiration

I stumbled upon this site whilst looking for some ideas for Texture Paste... It was one of those serendipitous discoveries, the use of texture and colours and mixed-media on the art of Robin Ann Walker is highly inspiring, not to mention how well she seems to be doing. Always fun to see someone doing well (and doing stuff I actually like....)
Go have a look, I'm sure you'll agree.
That's all for me for today, I've been working on two unfinished projects myself :) (Krafty Lady projects).
On a sadder note, it seems I have lost my first swap to Aust Post's Monster... I mailed something two weeks ago (minus a weekend) and it was only going to the other end of the country! *sigh* I used to always think I never lost anything but I think it's 4 pieces now (coming here, or leaving here) since 2001. I guess the more you use the system, the more it can fail you... just makes sense (though, frankly, I think ZERO pieces of mail should be lost when they are addressed properly and have enough stamps on them! But I'm a bit of an Idealist!!! )
Until next time, be well.

How much do you love your mobile?

Mobile, or cell phone.... everyone seems to have one. We all "know" they are supposed to not be very good for our brains, but it seems millions of teenagers don't care. How many times will a phone ring on my 7 minute bus trip down to Fremantle... Usually at least 3 people get a call while I'm on the bus, even if the bus is not very full. People cannot live without their mobiles. I own one too, it's my lifeline between my children at school and me, the school can call me (my girls do not own mobiles and hopefully won't for a while. I use it as little as possible, but yeah, it is handy!
I used to carry it in my bra... many women carry stuff in there (ever seen that Jamie Lee Curtis interview with David Letterman!) I don't do that anymore, nor do I carry it in my hands if I can avoid it. Nowhere near any of my "female parts", or head... Why? Because I am afraid of cancer!!
If you want to know more, read this article. Interesting, huh? Of course, some brands are probably better than others, but I'm sure some are worse!
So, how much do you love your mobile??
Food for thought, if you like eggs ;)

Sorry, no eye candy or links today. I have to make dinner now. Hmmm, how about an Omelet... Does anyone have a phone they can lend me? Just to make dinner!!

Stay well.
