a crafty weekend at Sirstampalot

By

I'm just home after two fabulously crafty days at Sirstampalot, Peterborough with Janice, Andy and lots of lovely ladies and gents.  Thank you so much everyone for coming along to our demo day yesterday.  We had quite a crowd and lots of fun.  I hope everyone left feeling inspired to cut into their papers and not stash them away to be stroked :-) 
Today we constructed tag boxes and altered a few of the large tags to go inside them using papers from the Time to Flourish collection by Graphic 45.  Here's some pictures of them all.  I love them ladies :-) 
  
There's still a few days left to leave a comment for the months giveaway. If  you'd like to be in with a chance to win this months blog candy click the link below and leave your comment before midnight on 30th April.

I'm going to pour myself a drink and settle down to watch the last episode of Poldark, so ttfn, enjoy the rest of your Sunday and look onward to catching up again over the next few days :-)

    Morning Clare, Fabulous, fabulous piccies of these gorgeous creations, and the ladies full of concentration and then emerging with their 'works of Art', stunning samples too.
    I recorded the last episode of Poldark, but I'm not wanting to watch it because it is the 'last' one for a year, and reputed to be really upsetting, I have really enjoyed watching these and I was overjoyed to see that they are doing a second series.
    Lots of love from Patricia xx

      Hi Patricia. lovely to hear form you and hope your eyes are much improved. I thought the episode was done really well and managed to get right to the end without too many tears but know It would definitely tug at your heartstrings if you watched it. I've really enjoyed reliving what I remember watching with mum in the 70's and was really pleased to hear they'll be another series. Take care and look forward to catching up again soon xx

    I agree with 'Homebird', it would be great if you could come up to the NE to do a weekender or workshop . I did attend one of yours held in Stockton !!! a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it when you showed us how to make a small album, but it was my very first attempt at one and would love to try some of your other more complicated projects . I do follow your blog and videos but it's not the same as having you there in person. Thanks for sharing your photos with us. Hugs Pauline A xx

July Giveaway and crafty Weekend in Milford Haven

By
Morning everyone, Happy Monday to you.  I"m home after a fabulous weekend with Cheryl, Jan and Chris, at their fabulous shop, In House Interiors in Milford Haven.  It was a full house on Friday for our Artisan Style workshop where we constructed, painted and altered pencil cases and albums.  Saturday was demo day and another full house.  Cheryl, Jan & Chris, thank you so much for hosting the event for all your hard work and your hospitality, you really did spoiled me :-)  It's been quite a while since I've travelled over the border to Wales so I was quit excited as I passed the Welcome to Wales sign and then Raglan Castle. For those of you unfamiliar with our isle, Wales is full of magnificent Castles, sandy beaches, picturesque scenery and a gorgeous coastline.  I had to have a quick pit stop to see Raglan Castle. Saw my first Dragon too :-)   After a journey that took me across the middle of the country and th...
