Hi Everyone

Well here I am on a blog! My blog! I've been told I must do one so I can share all my cards in one place. It seems funny trying to talk to people when you don't even know if anyone will read it!
I did two workshops this last week the first at Rae Dalal's last saturday and the second at Eileen Godwin's in Coventry on Tuesday. Both workshops I shared with lovely ladies and will definitely be going again!
This is the clock we did with the lovely Rae Dalal. I have it propped up on my craft desk so I can definitely keep an eye on the time!
This is the first of the cards we did with the lovely Eileen Godwin. Love it! Apologies to Eileen for not having finished the other creations as for some reason its been a busy week so far, lol

This is a card I did for my grandson! He was offered the post of apprentice swimming instructor at a very large and well known school in a town near us. Has he as lived in water since he was a baby and it is his life we are keeping everything crossed for when the 12 months apprenticeship is up and hopefully he gets a full time job! This was his first week and they have already had him on a course to further his career. He also has diving as one of the things he does, you know like the Olympics last year, well he's done it from the highest board! Eeeek! Just like they do!!

Well that's it for now I don't know when I'll be on here again as it usually takes a few days for me to do one card! Hope you have enjoyed looking at my blog and as time goes on maybe I willget better at it.

Thanks for stopping by
love
Pat x

  14. Welcome to the world of blogging, you will soon be addicted :-)
    Your cards are lovely, and the colours in the flower one is lovely.
    I have to say, your clock is absolutely stunning. The pastel colours are beautiful with all that texture to it. The numbers are very elegant making a beautiful clock that would look gorgeous on any wall.
    I look forward to reading more of your posts

    Hugs Lisa xxxx <3
