I hope life has been treating you kindly and you have had lots and lots of fun crafting since last we 'visited' together! I won't bore you with my everlasting bleat about my self inflicted 'busy' life, except to say, I battle to say 'No'!

Hello all! I'm still around, albeit not very active on the blog these last few months. It's been a very busy time and sadly the blog was at the end of the 'list of things to do', only because of editing etc. You will understand if you are a blogger.

Hello folks!
Every month in my card class, we get to make one Christmas card, one Birthday card and one "Occasions" card. I decided to do this as we all had a mad rush on, to get Christmas cards out last year (and the year before!). This method helps keep the stock levels up and there is always a birthday that needs a card!
I have several cards that I will share with you, but todayMozhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15674362261376044743noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1164961273893628279.post-64508697581400079772014-03-17T11:40:00.001+02:002014-03-17T11:40:54.317+02:00500th Post!Hello my dear blog friends!
