OK OK I can not settle

Sorry guys but I have changed my template again, I was having a bit of trouble with the other one getting things lined up and the right size, so until I can fix it I am back to basics!

You will notice though that I have managed to upload some pictures of card samples and I am hoping to get more projects on in the coming week. 

If you like any of the card samples, everything used is available from http://www.stampeezee.co.uk/

I am off to Ally Pally for the Big Stamp and Scrapbook show this weekend and I am really looking forward to it.  It will be the first show I have been to in ages, if you are going, stop by and say hi, I will be on the WS Designs stand.

Thanks also to Gracie, who is such a support to me and a major inspiration, she has a super blog called dancing angel and is a talented card maker, why not stop by her blog and check it out!

OK I am officially rubbish!

 I know I am officially rubbish at posting, it has been a really strange few weeks BUT I am on top of tings now and am HONESTLY going to make a real effort tonight to post some interesting bits and photots to my blog.  For starters, here is a mini book I did in a class for Debbie at Stameezee, absolutley everything used is available from http://www.stampezee.co.uk/ the stamps are one of my favourite sets from Unity Stamps (also available at Stampeezee.  I will hopefully update this post later on with full instruction on how to make this minibook!.

I have not forgotten

I just wanted to post a quick note to say that I have not forgotten about uploading projects!  To be honest I do not know where last weeken went and this week went in a blur of hospital visiting andworking.  Marks dad has had a new knee and well lets just say Mark and I have been run off our feet.  But I promise I will try really hard to get some bit uploaded this week.

Thanks for all your patience!

A fantastic Weekend

Don’t you just love a good night out? I know I do, in fact it was a full day and it was fantastic.I went to Stratford Races with a group of friends on a hen do. Rachel Hinks is getting married next year and decided to have her hen party whilst the weather was still good. We all got glammed up and totted off to the races. Everyone made a real effort and looked fantastic. 

Of course we had to take the official HEN mascot Roger More, he does like to get about a bit and rumour has it that he has now been invited to the wedding, which takes place in St Lucia in March 2010. All I can say is that I hope he does not wear his speedos!

Well we all behaved ourselves, but Roger made his TV debut on channel 4 racing and caused quite a stir at Ripples restaurant and night club. What worries me though is how much interest the men show in him!

Anyway, thanks so much to Mandy Jessop and to Katie who organised the whole affair. It was fab, I did not moon once (well I am not lying, I lost count after Sheila got on the coach after the races)

Thank Crunchie it is FRIDAY

What a wonderful thing to be able to say "Thank Crunchie it is FRIDAY!"

When I used to work for myself, and even when I worked at the NEC, I have always had a job working odd hours, long hours and weekends.

Now I work at the Council I have really started to get that Friday feeling.  I never got it before, but I do now.  I was so excited as 5pm got closer this afternoon as I knew the weekend was here and that I could have a lovely two days without thinking of work.

I am so lucky as I love my new job, but boy it is nice to have regular set days off.

This weekend I am off to a hen do at Stratford races, which I know will be really good fun.  I have never been to the races before.  I am sure we will all behave ourselves (not)  In fact we are borrowing a "prop" from my cousin Kates hen do, his name is Roger More!  (no he is not a real person, but I am sure he will provide entertainment!)

Anyway, what ever you are donig, have a good one.

An Ode to IT

Our IT department are such a good bunch
They always help us out of a crunch

We raise a call and help arrives
Even when they are up to their eyes

I know the must get fed up of our calls
Probably thinking not them again, oh balls

But they never ever complain
Even though we ask for their help again and AGAIN

They are so well appreciated, I am sure everyone will agree
Thank you so much guys, from everyone and especially ME.
