Fun with friends...

Good morning all, I do hope that your week is going well.

I have finished my samples for next weekends tv and they are safely on their way to Barbara...

Fingers crossed that they arrive in one piece, it is always a worry....

Today I need to get sorted for Saturday's workshops at CJ Cards, in Stockport...we are having an inky morning and a Groovi afternoon, so lots to get sorted.

I am lucky that I meet so many lovely crafters at workshops...and I must say...if you haven't ever been to a class, or a retreat they really are a great way of learning new techniques and making new friends...

Some of the Wednesday ladies and me have been together now for over six years...oh I think they need medals!!!!

There are lots of Clarity workshops all over the uk, so do check out if there is one near you.

Last week myself and three of my close friends went to a workshop by the very lovely Martine Smith...

It was the most wonderful day and I really enjoyed seeing the other side of workshops...( I did try and behave myself )

It was so good to make cards that were not my usual style...another reasons to go to workshops...

Try new things....

This was the first card that we made....I did have to add some Clarity butterflies....hope you approve Martine...

 

And this was the second....

As with all good classes we had coffee and a rather nice lemon cake...

It really was a fab day ladies...I can thoroughly recommend workshops...it was like a real tonic....

Martine has a blog.... http://abfabdesigns.blogspot.co.uk if you would like to check it out .

You know I have met so many really lovely and generous people through my crafting life...and I feel so privileged to have them in my life....

My life is far richer with you all in it...

Have a great day all..

Take care

Love and hugs

Jo. xxxxx
