A little crafting & mail!!

Hello from freezing Quebec! It is -25 celcius here today! I've had a lazy day of napping and writing while Noah and Jeffrey were off to the pool. In a few minutes we're going to play some board games but I wanted to share a few things here first.
I made a couple of cards a few days ago. I used the CuttleBug machine to emboss the card and I used a "Stampin 'Up stamp. I love the embossed background.

Another card using the CuttleBug machine to emboss the background and a stamp by "Stampin 'Up.

I have been interested in soap making for some time now so I finally bought a book showing and explaining the procedure. It seems simple enough. Now I need to buy the products and hopefully try making some this week.

In yesterday's mail I received some Magnolia stamps I had ordered just last weekend. I was so surprised at the fast service and especially mail delivery. I have loved these stamps for so long and I'm happy we can now buy them in North America.

I also received a letter from my friend Susi from Austria. Her letter was nice and chatty. She also included some FBs and a deco.

So, I'm off as Noah is calling me to play his MouseTrap board game.
