I'm back from my travels

evening everyone, and happy Monday to you.  Jan, if you're reading this I've finally managed to sit down for long enough to open up the lap top, watermark some pics and blog.............................:-)
It's been a fun filled couple of weeks since my first show on Hochanda with Fiona.  What a great time we had, the hour flew by as always. Huge thanks to everyone who mailed in during the show and sent messages afterwards too. It was great to be back and with such a fabulously friendly team. 
After the show I headed down to Cornwall for a few days with my lovely Sis, and a workshop in Bodmin.  Ladies thanks you so much for joining me.  We had a great time building our Box It kits and altering them Crazy Bird style.  Here's a few pics of eveyone and their fabulous projects: 
I caught a ship slipping slowly behind the rooftops into Falmouth docks as the sun came up and we spent some time on the beach too.  Just lovely.........

My time with Annie by the sea went by all too quickly.... but my journey home takes me past Harry's new pad so I called by and took him out for dinner and some much needed vegetables lol!!! We had a good old catch up.  He's loving his course and living in Cheltenham and has loads of new friends too which is great.  Student life seems t be suiting him.
After prepping for this weekends demo day and workshop at SirStampalot it was back off to Peterborough for tho fabulous days with Janice, Andy and their lovely customers.  Huge thanks to everyone who came along to Saturdays Graphic 45 demo day and yesterdays Graphic 45 workshop.  Our project for the day was a new ring bound album altered in papers from the truly delicious Cafe Parisian collection.  Here's a few pics from our day:
