Hi there. Thanks for popping in on Friday’s blog – a private peek. You think I lead a glamorous life, don’t you. Go on – be honest. New York one week, Jersey the next. Well here’s the reality of it. Glamorous? Totally!! Here you see me sandwiched between two hunks in a huge white limo, headed for Harrogate… Sunshine and the leafy lanes of Kent. But wait! Way to many other cars on M11 today!! Didn’t they know we were…
Hi there. Good of you to pop in. Thursday’s blog is always blue, right? Well, today let’s use some blue parchment! Can you print onto parchment? And can you print onto parchment with lace? Been thinking about this whilst on holiday, wondering whether it would work. So today’s the day we find out!! Let’s do a quick step by step to see, shall we? Place the Square nested plate in in Groovi Plate Mate from the Starter Kit. Tape the…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Wednesday already again! Wowee, this week is flying by!! Wednesday. The day when we talk about matters of the matters of the soul… Had a terrible night’s sleep last night. Couldn’t sleep a wink. Too much cheese before bedtime? Nope. Too much caffeine? Nope. Too much sugar? Nope. Ice cream doesn’t count. I know EXACTLY what I did wrong. I watched a really emotional film after 9. “Me Before You” It was about a…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Glad to see so many of you have embraced the new private Facebook group I have created for our little community here. As I said yesterday, just private message me (Or Paul Church – I’ve roped him in too!!) on Facebook and ask to be joined up. Mostly it seems to be working, except if you are not connected to me on Facebook. I have reached my max on Facebook, and apparently can’t have…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Break’s over and back to work! It was really good to get the stencils, paint and ink out again today; you really do miss it after a while! Before I crack on, I just want to tell you about the new Private Facebook Page I have created for those of you who would like to share more than what can be shared in comments below: photos, projects, cards, ideas and also non-craft related stuff. If…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in again. Last day on the island, and the sun is shining for us. It’s been a good break for Dave and myself as a couple too; it’s often hard to see the spot you’re standing on, if you know what I mean. Good to step away and take a look at where you’re actually headed. We have made some good decisions between us and I am really looking forward to getting home now. First thing…
Hi there. Greetings from Jersey, Day 3. We have been exploring the island today. Elisabeth Castle absolutely fabulous. We walked across to it at low tide, had a potted history of the island and the castle. Very, very interesting. And as soon as it started raining, Dave and I dived into the cinema and watched the new Bridget Jones film. Very, very good too. I do enjoy a pleasant, feel good movie, don’t you? But Saturday’s blog and time for…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Friday’s Blog a private Peek, right? Where there’s a will there’s a way, and the internet signal is infinitely better on the ground floor in the lounge! So today we DO have photos, which is just as well, because a blog about orchids with no pics would be pretty banal! Here’s a particularly precious orchid, celebrating her birthday! H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y M U M…
Hi there! Greetings from lovely Jersey. Bit of a mission getting here, but we did. We have good days and growing days, and today has been and still is a growing day! BUT. Mum and Dad are fine and next door. The hotel is fab, right next to the marina, overlooking Elizabeth Castle. Just watched the sun go down. Before we all meet for our evening meal, I thought I would just take myself off to check in with you….
Hi there! Thanks for popping in today. Been going like the clappers here since very early, pushing things through before I go off on our next little jolly. She’s off again?? What’s going on?? Well, it’s a little Anniversary treat for Mum and Dad. And it’s Mum’s birthday on Friday! So Dave and I are taking them to Jersey. New York – Jersey. Now there’s a contrast! N E W Y O R K Noisy, dirty and crazy. But brilliant…
