and i came up with..
"Hilarious"

yep.. i know.. i lost the mushroom... and THIS was my 3rd attempt.. LOL.. i was going for red?white colour theme..and then mushrooms kind of represent fun for me..they are so quirky.. so i guess i really didnt loose it after all.....

YUM.. i love Show us your stuff simply coz we can showcase some amazing local Aussie peopls making some superb stuff for us to use... here is some Rainbow Splendour.. the felt doily AND the super cute felt bug and leaf....... and also my favourite buttons.. a red dot from Lil Red Rocket.....
the photos.. oh she is funny.. I was taking these coz the amazing JMack sent me this headband from her shop... Rainbows and Whimsy but she just wouldnt be normal.. and you just cant go past scrapping funniness...
and the felt flower is also from Chloe at Rainbow Splendour..... and i just love these birdy pins [which reminds me that i need more].. from The Chip Chop Shop....
