Sketch Saturday # 229

Good Morning folks, hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend. I decided last night to have a change around and sort out in my craftroom. So I made a start while I was in the mood but OMG! when I got up this morning I didn't know where to start. Been at it for an hour now and it looks like a tornado has whipped through it. So I thought I would have a coffee and then get cracking.

It's time for another gorgeous sketch over at Sketch Saturday

Thursday 11 October 2012

I'm late, I'm late!

Good evening folks, hope you are all happy and well.

First of all please accept my apologies for being a bad blogger over the last couple of days. The loft sort out turned out to be a much bigger job than we first thought. Apart from the time it took us to look at all the stuff we've saved of the kids, the junk we had stashed up there was ridiculous. Wayne has made 3 trips to the tip already and there is at least another 4 car fulls. But the good news is, it's done. Woohoo! all ready for the insulation.

What with the loft and Harrogate, I had totally forgot to post these cards.

Anyhoo! here are my Little Claire DT cards using the gorgeous new October club stamp.

This months stamp is called Village Scene and is available here





Rightyoh! I'm off to have a catch up with all your lovely blogs. Hope you all have a lovely evening.

Ooh! before I go. There is a fab offer over at Little Claire Designs. Christmas Joy is available for just £3.50 until 11am tomorrow.
