so i just got back from Boston, where i was teaching some classes using a lot of the Hambly CHA new releases. They are shipping now, so be on the look out at your favorite scrapbook store. I used a little finery from Tinkering Ink (love the felt infused with silicone, and their colors match our stuff perfectly), and alcohol inks from Ranger to ink the edges on the overlays, also used the new Paper Gator in class to corner round the edges of the Clearly Heavy Overlays mini book. Have you guys used this yet? You are going to love it, we could round the corners of all 6 pages at one time! Oh and i'm still loving the Silhouette, i used it to cut the word "today" out of the new Brocade paper for each kit. 
We also had a bit of free time, so i went to hang out with my cousins
in Cambridge and Boston. One highlight was finding a Wagamamas there! When i
studied in London almost 10 years ago, we used to go there all the time. It was one of our favs places to go, so i was shocked when i randomly saw it while visiting, and the menu was exactly the same, love the #71 chicken katsu curry and yaki soba.

Oh my gosh, I live in the UK and totally go to Wagamama ALL the time! I LOVE it too! And the best thing is, they always have these cool postcards in there...I've now got a little collection to use for a scrapping project!

When I'm in need of creative inspiration, I stop by Hambly and check out the DT's latest or visit the shop for a look at your new things; you all never fail me!
Martha's work is right up there on my list! I especially like her pug pix; we have poodles, so I'm a softie for cute furkids. :)
