   I really enjoyed making this card with my new toys...The Ranger heat tool which enabled me to us the puffy paints today. The paints were bought years ago for my daughter, surprisingly they were not dry and I really liked the effect on the branches. I'd tried using the hair dryer in the past but the result was unsatisfactory. I’m also very delighted to be the owner of a die cut machine at last! As I had won a couple of dies previously, I had my daughter order the big shot; a few basic essentials like the cutting mat, a score tool and a few inks I had been longing for within my budget. At JoAnn’s Store, I was like a kid wanting all the toys, but as my children’s needs were more important than my wants, I just picked a few small items.

   For those of you who are not aware, craft supplies are not available here, if I order online and have it shipped to me it doesn’t reach. I lost packages thrice, since then I have my stuff sent to mailing addresses in USA or Canada, depending on the sender’s location and sent to me whenever family or friends visit. This time I brought it along. The wait is often long no doubt, but better than losing it.

   Thanks for visiting. Hope to be back soon.
