Evening ladies. Sorry I've been MIA lately, but life has been really hetic here (new Dt post asides), DH has been away on business for what seems ever. I also was asked to teach a class on Distress Inks and have now been invited back for a regular slot (didn't carp myself much then!!).

It's taken me a while to read though the old thread then this one. I'm typing from memory so huge apologies if I miss anyone, but it has taken me over an hour to read thru all the posts.

Dragonlew - hope your hubby is OK

Tomsmum - thanks for the heads up re my win. Glad Poppy's haircut went OK.

Mel - Congratulations hun, really pleased for you.

Mary OP and Giggle - I'm so sorry I've forgotton your birthdays - I hope you both had good ones.

Rusty - hope things improve

Soma - it was me that won the Sweetpea stamps

Madfrog - I got my ribbon from C&H fabrics, I noticed this week that they'd got a royal purple and gold in it too (rather yum)

Glittermum - was it today you went to the Artisans Show? If so, how did your workshop go?

Lei - I'm definately going to the NEC and am s'posed to be on a stash ban 'til then, but things keep jumping into my basket.

I think I made more cards than anyone else here today! (Probably!)

I went to a Christmas card workshop where you got a pack to make 30 Christmas cards using Stampin' Up materials. It was quite fun, although a lot of the designs aren't really my taste - a bit too grown up. I like glitter! The biggest novelty was working on a table, instead of on a sofa with everything falling around me, getting annoyed because I can't find anything.

I also did a 'backwards' raffle, which went down really well and raised about £25 for my charities hardship fund. Yay!

Good morning girls. Just caught up with last few days. Gosh this forum is busy.

Craftygranny thanks for the link to the klingon, been and bought some.

I still have a spare copy of 'Quick Cards' Issue No 79 - October. If anyone wants it just PM me and I'll send it out.

My shop closed on Thursday Just got a few last parcels to send out then I'm going to pack all the leftover stock away. I bet I'll have the biggest craft stash, lol. I'm going to just work my way through using it and put spares for sale on my blog.

Had a nice surprise the other day. Got an email from a well-known marker company offering sponsorship of my challenge blog. I was like a cheshire cat.

That's it from me for now. Catch up again later.

Good morning everyone I know I am a stranger to many on here as I so rarely get to come on catch up and post!
I hope all of you are well had a fab world card day yesterday.

I just wanted to pop on first thing this morning and say a huge thank you to some special people who have brightened my day......
Rainmac, OAP, Soma, Marg and Addams.

I am very touched by your thoughtfulness especially as I am so rarely here with you all and I am a stranger to most of you (poor Rainmac has met me in person!!)
