Wow it looks great!! http://www.quickutz.com/qk2/silhouette/

Silhouette

Oh this is so good… importing your own images though it says not recommended because the results can vary. I am game to try that out, I am dying to cut my own images out.

I wonder if it is better than the Craft Robo… I didn’t hear any rave reviews about that one which I felt was a shame because I was so looking forward to it.

So anyway, if you have the Silhouette, leave a comment about it please so I know whether to get it or not. And, is QuicKutz a good brand?

NSBR: Death at Go Karts

Posted in Home, News at 5:44 pm by Retta

We arrived home today after spending the weekend at Tom Price kart club for a meet. The meet came to a premature end on Saturday when a fellow karter lost his life after crashing his kart. It was a freak event and at the moment an investigation is happening. His wife saw the whole incident and is being comforted by fellow karting members. A writeup is on the Australian Karting site. We as a family have come to know Graham and Pam over the last 3 years, they were frequent members of the Northern Zone Rounds and they are such gentle, quiet and lovely people. Everyone at the meet was horrified by what occured and the rest of the racing was cancelled.

Here is a photo in honour of Graham Peterson and his fellow Open Class karters.

Yah!!! I am still quite stoked about it even though it was last month’s issue of Scrapbook Creations #37 page 111. Here is the layout that was published:

Chipboard

Posted in Personal, Scrapbook at 3:41 pm by Retta

I have been playing around trying to make chipboard. Here is a sample:

Chipboard

What do you think? Look real enough?! :P

Alrighty! I have had another go at this. I received some constructive critisism from Pickleberrypop forum and I made some changes. I also found a chipboard and tried to replicate the colour and texture of the chipboard more. Anyway…

Chipboard #2

Looks quite different doesn’t it? I think it looks way better. If you think I should change anything else just let me know. :)
