the sun is red and shining.

Most importantly check this bad boy out.

It’s a NEW fiskars rotary trimmer debuting this fall. What makes it cool? Those are speakers that you see on the left corners. See, this is the rock, paper, trimmer- the newest fiskars trimmer that has speakers and attachments so you can hook up your ipod. Sweet? I think so. So much so that I might have to reconsider getting an ipod…

Fiskars has a LOAD of awesomeness coming- you can check it all out over at scrapbook.com (here) Was so excited the other day when Stephenie loaded it all up. Now to just wait until it all releases! If you want to see projects just start clicking on the fiskars DT blogs (I’ve got ’em listed down on the right side of my blog…) Their work with the lines, the new squeeze punches, oh man. CAN NOT WAIT!

Now onto my day…

The sun is red. It’s not good when you go in the kitchen and find a RED sun. This photo doesn’t even do it justice- it’s MUCH brighter. Oh, and the sky is grey. Winds changed again and our blue skies went back to smoke-filled grey. There is really no escaping it- I’m just grateful we don’t live in one of the areas close to a fire! For today, and probably a few more our town is once again grey due to BAD air quality. ugh.

I find it funny that on this grey sky/red sun day I get to share the following photo with you.

my button fixation is reaching all time highs. I spent at least 4hrs on the layout you’re getting a peek of here. So many new favorite things in this page I love it!!! (and yep, it’s for my fall BPS class…) Though I love the process and results, I couldn’t ever do pages this labor intensive always. They’re a fun once-in-a-while project… but not for everyday creation.

Well that’s it from me. Have a fab friday!!

  1. I love, love, love the pink trimmer with butterflies. I especialy love the 90 degree marks showing paper size.
    I’m getting on the button bandwagon, too. I posted a button lo on my blog the other day. They are putsy, but I like that kind of stuff.

  2. WOW…I wondered what the little flowery things were! Speakers! How cool! Love all the markings too…I’m not very good at lining up ruler markings but I love having that layed out for me!

    Will keep y’all in our prayers still for better air and for those affected by the fires.. I just cannot imagine the horror of wild fires.

    Try and get some R&R , May . Have a great weekend!

  3. I remember the red sun. Gives you a kind of an eerie feeling, because you know what’s causing it and it’s devastating.
    So loving all the color in that LO. So happy. You must be getting a good vibe.

  4. OMG! I loved the LOOK of the trimmer, but Speakers for my i-pod…Now we’re talking!! 🙂 How cool is that??

  5. Wow, that trimmer is SO cool! I can’t wait to see the new products coming out 🙂

    I have fell in love with buttons too…especially the shaped ones.

  6. Shoot I already have an Ipod that is very temping. . . The red sun is scary I have had few of those and it just kind of makes your whole day weird but I have to say love those buttons and it looks like it was a load of work to do that page. Looking forward to seeing the rest some day!

  8. wow – that trimmer looks awesome…I have been wanting a rotary trimmer anyway and I would not have to unplug my Ipod alarm clock from the bedroom and carry it out to the scrap room – THAT is a MUST HAVE!!

    So sorry about your air quality – I know what that is like, We get lots of fires in Florida also (mostly during the spring though), somedays there would be ashes and soot just floating all around and we were MILES away from the fires – it got aweful.

    Love the little sneak peak – I hope to see the whole thing someday!!

  9. i don’t even remember what a nice blue sky looks like anymore. yesterday the sun was super red here too, and i actually said to james… “is that the sun!?”

  10. Oh that trimmer.. I watched a video of it.. and I wouldn’t mind getting my hand son one of those, they are awesome the way she explained how to use them,, Mariah # 2457
