Popnicute Supplies rides the Crazy Train!
Yes, the Crazy Train is still going. I think I missed one rider there, however I am back in the game!!
The lastest rider is Popnicute Supplies. She has some awesome tutorials available, like these..
They are fabulous tutorials, and there are more in Popnicute Supplies on ArtFire!
Well... There was a little mix up.. it is Popnicute that is riding the Crazy Train, but we are doing her jewellery shop instead of her supply shop.. and I was thinking instead of scrapping this and starting again that I would just add some more pics to show items from Popnicute's other studio.
She has the most amazing talent with wire! Drop by Popnicute on ArtFire and see more!

Heat me up! Cool me down!
So I was sitting here, in Australia, freezing my buns off! Its really cold here at the moment, being that its winter, and I happen to live in one of those places that gets really cold, but without any of the cool stuff, like snow. So I was thinking about ways to get warm, and looking at the fire I have burning and I thought.. 'I wonder if there are flame inspired creations on ArtFire?'. Well of course there are, just like these ones in this cool (or should that be hot?) spotlight.
So then I was thinking that that might be a little unfair on my American friends, seeing as how its coming into Summer there. So I thought maybe I should do another spotlight just for them.
So I warmed myself up, only to cool myself off again!
Drop by ArtFire and have a little browse. Its so much fun to pick a keyword and do a search, you can find all sorts of interesting things.

7 Random Things
I have been tagged by ColtPixy of http://coltpixy.com/ to write 7 random things about myself. I'm not sure how interesting these will be to anyone else, but they are random, lol
1) I have been battling depression and a disassociation disorder since I was 7
2) I draw and paint mandalas when they call to be created, this isnt very often lately, but I still 'see' them in my mind, the time just isnt right.
3) I have Hypothyroidism and will be medicated for the rest of my life because my thyroid is useless, which happened due to my last pregnancy.
4) I have never met a technique that I haven't wanted to try. Sometimes I truly suck at them, other times I discover a new love. But I have to be careful that I dont spend to much 'exploring', because I can get carried away.
5) I'm an atheist with a huge amount of respect for people's right to choose their own belief system. And being atheist doesn't mean I don't have faith, I just experience it differently.
6) I'm a Trekkie, and I'm proud of it!
7) I broke my right collarbone when I was 12 whilst mucking around on a waterslide during a school excursion, and had to learn to write with my left hand, and I still occasionally write left handed just to keep in practice.
Ok, now to tag some others..
