Our Graphic 45 Event in Wales


 Looking at the weather this morning I was really lucky to have two days full of sunshine by the sea in Wales.  It's pouring this morning here in the middle of the UK.  Our venue at the British Legion, Milford Haven had the best views looking out over the sea.  The Irish Ferry came and went as we crafted away.  Huge thanks to Cheryl for organising the event, my accommodation at Fields Lodge, and our evening meal at the Crows Nest. Thanks also to everyone who helped out and to all the lovely ladies who came along. It was lovely to see you all again and to meet some new ladies too.  I hope you're as addicted to Graphic 45 as I am lol!!!  Thank you too to Helen, Margaret, Amy and Rosemary for my lovely gifts. You spoiled me.  I've come home with some gorgeous goodies and three Welsh dragons to add to my collection.

Cheryl chose Communique, the recently released Deluxe Collectors Edition for everyone to craft with and I got busy designed a new album in a box project for us all to make.  This collection is one of my all time favourites, I love the theme that runs through the papers and the colours too, and thoroughly enjoyed putting the project together for everyone.  If you 'd like to make it follow the links below: 
  Here's some pics from our two days:

Trip to Ireland anyone .................

July Giveaway and crafty Weekend in Milford Haven

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.

Saw my first Dragon too :-)   After a journey that took me across the middle of the country and th...
