Catching Up

By
Good morning - did everyone have a good weekend? I spent mine at work, it's the first full weekend in ages so I can't complain and I have today off to catch up so it's not all bad!

I organised a fundraising event for last Friday (14th) to raise money for the Make a Wish charity. It was like a make and take with a raffle and I staged it at a local cafe here in Bridgnorth. Bec's Cafe is the place and the coffee and cake (coffee and walnut) are divine!

The card we made was a nice simple one CASEd from the Stampin' Up catalogue. It's at the bottom of of page 139 and uses the gorgeous Blooms and Wishes set


And here is my version


My colours were Powder Pink, Smoky Slate and Basic Black.
The catalogue is a great resource for tips and ideas on card making and scrapbooking.
There's link in the side bar for you to take a look at one or if you would like your own to stroke and hug drop me an email at jacquelinenm68@gmail.com.

This card is being entered into the challenge over at


Thanks for stopping by today - have a great week. See you soon xx

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
