I am sooo looking forward to the NEC and I am with you Rainmac I won't be sleeping on Thursday night far too excited!! I also need to make sure I am up bright and early so I am organised for Popkins when she comes to collect me! How will we all recognise each other?? Instead of carrying a copy of the financial times do we need to carry Paperraft Inspirations mag??? Instead of a red rose in our button holes we could have a Rubber stamp made into a badge!! LOL!!

Quick update on my card club thing I went to last night. There was just me and the person who organised it and I was the only person who replied to her ad! She has so much crafting stuff it was amazing!! She is a lot more addicted than I am and had lots of unused stuff too (I felt so much better!!). Can anyone beat the number of stampes she owns wait for it..... just over 4000!!! Needless to say her home is overflowing with stash. It was so nice to sit and chat with someone about card making and craft shops and I overstayed my set time by an hour!! Have booked to go again in 2 weeks!

Popkins

LOL!! Me too sooooooooo excited for friday - don't think I'll be sleeping Thurs night either as my hubby has just informed me he's away on business thurs night so I'm a bit worried I'll oversleep LOL!!! and poor furrypig will be sitting patiently waiting....!!

Must pop over to CP to check up on the exact plans for us all meeting up!!

Yes Furrypig I too am hanging my head in shame for missing birthdays & especially Flourgirls - I owe her two cards as it is EEEK!!! I have kinda lost my card mojo of late - altho need to find it sharpish as have to make my mum 30 Xmas cards!!! Had a play with my cuttlebug today for the first time!!! thought I'd broken it first go!! but its ok altho it is worrying to have scallop circle shapes on the plates already!!! Need to buy more Nesties on Friday if I can - need circles and labels especially!! Have also decided I need a Scor-pal too and thats why I couldn't manage the swing card & tri-fold card for Flourgirl!!! I am planning to make you something special Flourgirl real soon to make up for it!!

Oooh Furrypig the card club thing sounds interesting - local for me?

No cards on my blog for a while - but working on the Xmas ones but have posted a WTP nappy cake I just made for an order - on the back of it got an order for another one the same woop woop!!
