Pretty things, broken pc's and a winner!

Last weekend Miss Scooter had her first sleep over at a friend's house. Seeing as she's spent numerous weeks at a time at my parent's place 3.5 hours away with no issues, I figured she'd be perfectly fine a mere 10 minutes down the road with people she'd known for 3+ years ;) She had a blast, and of course, I made the requested bracelet at the last minute lol Not too bad for something whipped up that morning ;)

Bracelet

All things computerised hit a minor snag earlier this week when we had a power surge (very weird, completely different to others we've had) and the RAID server stopped working. Well, it was turning on, but not booting up. Turns out the boot drive died. So it's on the operating table (ie, my dining table!) and is currently being fixed. Hopefully it will be done asap as everything is on there and I'm missing it lol Thankfully all the data drives are fine though :)

Broken pc

But in happier news, I got special mail today! My copy of *bespoke* issue 2! So much gorgeousness. Do you like the photo? I handed the DSLR to Scooter and asked her to take a photo. She felt very honoured to be trusted lol and I think she did a pretty good job.

Cool zine

Which brings me to choosing the winner from the *bespoke* giveaway.
Thanks to random.org, the winner is....

I would love to win the Bespoke giveaway! I just discovered the vine the other day in fact, and the cover is gorgeous! I love to sew (I make kids clothes), and I adore collage. My kids and I are always at the dining room table either making collage or drawing.

I hope everyone has had a good day. It's getting late here and we have a wedding to attend tomorrow - woot!! so I'm heading off to bed. Probably with a certain little zine to flick through :)
