Yay they've arrived !!!!!

At long last and what seems to have taken FOREVER Jo's and my pens have arrived and my lovely husband went and collected them for us whilst I was away in Bath. I can't believe I've finally got the FULL SET of Copics and can't wait to use them, at the moment I am just looking at them and thinking of how I am going to reorganize them into each colourway. I am so happy, some people might think a bit mad to be so obsessive about felt tip pens but hey, each to their own he he...........

Weekend Away.............




Well i've just got back from a lovely couple of days away to Bath and the Cotswolds with my friends Jayne & Julie and we had such a laugh. The two villages in the Cotswolds were beautiful and we wished we had a bit longer at each one, the shops were lovely.

Floristry Workshop



Well this week I attended my 2nd Floristry Workshop with David Ragg, he is amazing and has been selected to do the Chelsea Flower Show representing Interflora next year, will have to go and see what he does. Here is my little creation that I made this week. We went for the Rustic Look................

Sorry I've been neglecting my Blog, been toooo busy !!!!!



Well at long last I've made a couple of cards today, thanks to me mate Jo lending me some paper as despite me ordering mine over 2 weeks ago it still hasn't arrived so thanks Jo. I made my mum & dads xmas card and a good luck card for my nephew Alex who is taking the Grammer School test next Saturday.

Been out today gathering leaves/berries and twigs for my Floristry Workshop I will be attending on Wednesday night, looking forward to that, oh and of course Pay Day means I can finally pay for my brand new Copics (can't wait to get them) and I've seen a faberoonie tote bag for them to sit comfortably in and have put that on my Christmas Wish List !!!!!.................

No crafting for me done this weekend !!!!

Well my planned crafting yesterday didn't materialise as I had my husbands grand-daughter at our house and as soon as I said I was going in my shed , she wanted to come with me and we ended up creating a birthday card for her other nanny. Oh well had a nice time yesterday morning at the Ringwood craft fair, was better than I thought it would be and bought a few bits,but saving my money for my trip on Friday 6/11/09 to the NEC with my mate Jo so hopefully next weekend I will be playing with my new bits from the NEC.

Sunday 25 October 2009

Guess who was up at 06.00am this morning, duh didn't change time on alarm clock !!!!!, oh well nice early start to the day.................
I'd still be out in my shed now, but unfortunately the family needed feeding he he !!!!!
Now before anyone says anything, I know that there is a way of combining all of todays posts into one, but as a complete techno phobe, I've yet to work that one out yet, Just need my mate Jo round here(or any other clever pc literate people) !!!!!..............................



See above the cards I made today, and check out the fab velvet trim from Dunelm Mill, please leave a comment ................................
I then went on to finish some gift bags to be filled with either money/vouchers......




It is so much easier now I have my ribbons and Promarkers organised.

What a lovely day i've had !!!!!




I started by finishing off a couple of Xmas Beans in a jar, I'd picked up the jars in Poundland and thought they'd be good stocking fillers for kids.

Saturday 24 October 2009
