What a week! It’s been intense, lots to do at work and at home. My husband Andreas went to Stockholm for a business meeting friday, then came back on saturday afternoon. The meeting went well by the way :)

With him he brought gifts! I can’t believe it. He told me he had bought a little something. So I was expecting a scarf or something. Then when he was back on saturday he have me a huge bag, and in the bag a box… Can you guess what that was? It was a Bamboo Pen Tablet! I’ve wanted a pen tablet for several years! So that was soo sweet of him…

Draw Designs with Bamboo

I tried it just last night, it was fun! You can draw and write just about what ever you want. With a Bamboo Touch & Pen Tablet you can even paint with various “regular” painting techniques like sketching, aquarelle and oil. I think I will digitalize my jewelry design drawing ideas. That will be so awesome! It will take less space, and with the colors I can make them more vivid.

Me trying out my new Bamboo Touch and Pen

One more Gift!

And as if this wasn’t enough he had another gift for me… A Canon EF 50 mm f/1.8 lens for my camera which both me and him had checked out a long time ago! We had tried it and it seems really great.

As a review I can tell you that this lens takes fantastic pictures indoors and with bad lighting. That sounds too good to be true, but it really works! Taking good pictures of jewelry and beads in bad lighting has been difficult, but not anymore with my new Canon EF 50 mm f/1.8 lens.

I still can’t believe it, he got me both a fantastic Bamboo Pen Tablet and a Canon 50 mm lens… My darling, he is such a jewel! :D

This will improve so much for me! I’m so thankful :) I’m also looking forward taking some portrait pictures of people with the canon lens, it’s supposed to be really good with that too. It’s fun to take pictures of people, to see their expression and presence in the photo.

And drawing my new jewelry designs with the Bamboo Pen Tablet…oh don’t get me started on that because now it’s time for bed. Good night everyone! See you soon again.. :)
