Christmas Craft-A-Thon

Hi all, hope you are enjoying this glorious weather like me?  

Just to say my Christmas Craft Day is getting quite full, in fact classes are full for the Friday 3rd August but still have a few spaces on the 4th, 10th and 11th August.  

So if you want to be ultra organised with your Christmas cards and gifts please come along for this fun day.

• Designer Papers - First Edition Speciality, Mocha Morning Speciality

Guess where I was this morning....in the wet?  

 Have to say we took all our Junior school children and the atmosphere was fantastic, an occasion not to be missed.  Roll on the Olympics.......and if anyone has any spare tickets and they'd like to take me, that would be lovely!

I cased this card from Pininterest and have just adapted it slightly, as loved the simplicity of this card.   Can't tell you how chuffed  I am that this paper is back in stock.   Just wish the stamp set was too!
