ONWARDS AND UPWARDS !

Ok so fresh start for the week and some really exciting news MY STUDIO IS FINISHED yes Paige, Shirley and everyone else I have a Studio in my garden, ok we all know its a flipping shed but poetic licence lets me call it my Studio Darling !!!!

How wonderful is my husband he has done a great job and I am so proud of him bless.All I need to do now is titify it with lots of lovely bits and pieces I suspect that will be time consuming but no doubt enjoyable lol. I now have somewhere to store and use my lovely stash lets hope I get loads of time to play out there. As you can see from the pic above I still have a few bits and pieces to put away but dont worry will be working on that today.

This is my cutting area where I will be keeping my Cricut, Big Shot, Bind it all etc etc and obviously it will work as a lovely crafting space for any visitors I may have to my Studio lol

This is going to be my area to sit and craft and of course if I have any visitors they will be able to sit there to I suspect I may even have some room in the middle for a couple of tables ladies so maybe a little crop may go on here occasionally I dont know what do you all think lol x

I started last night by making some Christmas Cards for a car swap at a Stampin Up workshop I am going to this week. I got the layout from Michelle my lovely Stampin Up Upline, last year when she done our stampers 10 thanks Michelle I have no doubt the ladies will love this card I have to make 12 of them so they can all take one home but the good news is I will get 11 cards from them to use for ideas for my Christmas cards lol. Hopefully I will be starting to fill my blog up with lots of lovely blog posts about the crafting I am doing in my Studio but dont hold your breath girlies lol xxxxxx

RIP MARK we will all miss you xxxx

I just had to blog about the great sadness that my family and I are going through at the moment my sister Amandas husband Mark was tragically killed in a motorbike accident 3 weeks ago. The shock we are all feeling is dreadful as Mark was a really great person between them Amanda and Mark had 5 children Dale Charlotte and Jordan from Amandas first marriage and Grant and Lee from Marks first marriage They have been together for 10 years. Grant was 18 last week how awful for him to not have his dad to celebrate this with him. We are all still reeling from the shock of his tragic death. We will miss his sense of humour and his quirky laugh. Pat and Tony Marks parents are absolutely devasted as they lost there son Gary 17 years ago at the age of 23 to Multiple Sclerocis so its just awful that they have now lost Mark my heart goes out to them and Amanda Grant Dale Lee Charlotte and Jordan Love you and Miss you Mark x
