Hi there

Thanks for popping in. I have been going through all your quiz answers, to find a winner for the £100 Gift Voucher. So many of you guessed almost all of them right, like 29 out of 30, it was ridiculous! And you didn’t all get the same one wrong either! Not at all! It was very random. And one could argue that many of the answers weren’t INcorrect – they just weren’t what I had written down … But one person did get the same 30 answers I was looking for, so many thanks to all those of you whol joined in, and let’s say WELL DONE INDEED to ….drumroll….

Cherry Trapmore

There once was a hen called Dotty
Who thought she was going potty
When she looked at the sky
it looked too high to fly
So she said “can you beam me up Scotty”

Jackie Couling

There once was a hen called Dotty
Who thought she was going Potty,
She got off her nest
To go and take a test
And now she’s expecting a Lottie !

Pamela Pemberton

There once was a hen called Dotty
Who thought she was going potty!
That last egg was tough
It roughed up her chuff
And gave her a very sore botty!

a £20 Clarity Gift Voucher is winging its way to those three poets!

And finally, the Pottery giveaway. How nice that so many of you would actually like to own the little cookie jar I made, with the Shac Shac Bird for a handle!

Thank you to everybody who joined in the Birthday bash. Hope you enjoyed the weekend. Long may the SHAC SHAC continue…

We will be using the new “The House the Barb Built” Stampset, and we will be learning How To Build a Scene. Best price is on the Groovi Plate and Stampset bundle, but you can buy them individually too xx

If you haven’t got yours yet, but you’d like to join in, there’s still plenty of time to order. I just looked at all the lovely little assets and stamping elements in the set, and thought we could maybe do with a few tricks and tips on how to create those little landscapes.

Till tomorrow.

Love always,

Barb xxx
