Padded Rose Card


Sorry I am late in showing you today's card but we

He has also got to go on a diet, he weighs 7.4 kg!

Anyway back to the card, we have padded roses on this card

See you tomorrow.

Where has the time gone?
It has been weeks since I last blogged, I just can't believe how long I have been away.

Now I can get back into my routine which is great and concentrate on my crafting
and of course the shop.

Here are this weeks class projects.


Hope you enjoy looking at them.

Good News!!!!

Hello everyone!
Well it has been a lone time since I have blogged and I have missed it.
Things have been a bit up & down here and I have just not felt like blogging.
Christmas Eve Kevin was made redundant from work and it was a bit of a blow
but we did not let it spoil Christmas, well you can't can you.
He is still out of work and things will be tough for a while but I am sure we will get through it,
we have before.

Now on to a brighter note, I am not sure I have done the right thing but when opportunity knocks you grab it with both hands!
I am opening a craft shop!!!
It is only two units in our local indoor market but it is a start.
We have spent the last month getting it ready.

Grand Opening
