Hi all

Back home now and what a whirlwind of a week it has been, got home on Wednesday am from the 4 day deal plain and simple shows which were truly amazing, and one day to recover then off to Sara’s Craftaganza – which was fantastic fun…. (had a bit to much vino collapso on the Thurs night – but we wont dwell on that!) got to meet Kay from Sakura, Noreen from Flowersoft, Whendie Rhodes, our Michele and Malcolm of course! the lovely Claire Hamer from Crafters Companion, Claire demos’s for CC around the country and you must go and see her if she is near to you, as she is a trul lovel lovely lady, and an extemly fantastic crafter to boot, and last but by no means least …. the truly lovely Jayne Nestorenko, Ive included pictures of the card I made in Jayne’s workshop, which I loved every minute of, she really is a joy to watch and truly inspirational. Im now going to spend the rest of my Sunday afternoon making mice (cute companion mice that is) as I am all inspired and ready for a lovely relaxing afternoon ………….

WOOOOOO Flaming HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Hi all

I just had to tell you……. I am Sooooooooooooooooo excited………. I am doing a SOLO POTD on C&C and I can’t wait! It’s Michele’s dad’s birthday and she is taking him to the theatre, so guess who gets to stand in ……………. little old me …. what fun. Now obviously I can’t tell you what I am working with, but I can tell you that you will LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE it………. in my opinion its definitely the best thing since sliced bread, and definitely the best kit Ive worked with all year! …….

I’m like a kid in a sweet shop as I get very star struck and I’m wondering who I will get to meet in the green room this time, I’m hoping Joanna again, as she was really lovely and supportive of me the last time and gave great advice…. when I had the bone folding incident! …..

Ive been making myslef a list:
Hotel booked ? check
Train booked? check
Chocolates for the camera crew? check
Stottie and Pease Pudding for the floor manager? check
New clothes? check
Plenty of FABULOUS samples? Ooooooo better get cracking …….
Pinch myslef just to be sure its real? …………..OUCH

Now I am off to crack the whip so to speak, Michele is prepping for me LOL and I need to make sure she gets her finger out …….. Hahahahahahah

Craft Room sorted!

Well finally I haew acheived the impossible ………. I have tiedied my craft room (aka spare room which desperately needs decorating!), no mean feat you might be thinking, but if I tell you you could not see 1inch of carpet bed desk or shelf prior to my day long sorting marathon, you might see why I felt proud enough to photo my results! …. I only wish I’d photographed the before shot! Ill do that next week as I am sure it wont last like this for long!

I really need to get a bit more sorted as none of my cupboard smatch and I could do with some shelves too above my desk I think… I would love to see some photo’s of your craty spaces, so come on pop a piccie on your blogs and post the link here, I need inspiring with you helpful hints…..

Now where the dickens did I put my DS tape!
