Wishbone or Backbone.

By
Two posts in one day - sorry folks but I have something I wanted to share with you. I'm getting frustrated - it's been hard going lately trying to get my stamp business up and running.It's very slow going and things have not been running smoothly but then again as my husband said 'if it was easy everybody would be doing it'. And then someone said to me today 'people are like the bones of a chicken - wishbones are the ones with the  big ideas but when the going gets tough they snap and give up. The backbones stay true and firm, carry the load and will stop at nothing to achieve their goals' I'd like to think that I am a backbone - I'm not giving up on my dream and if you visit my blog and think 'blimey she's been on about this stamp shop for ages when is it going to be ready' it will be ready when it's ready. I will get it right.

    The wait will be worth it for us judging by the samples you have shown. Do it in your time we will still be here.

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
