Sarah Hurley Challenges-Circles

Yikes just checked back the date of my last post....4 weeks ago...shame on me *sigh* Well you know that sneeze I was talking about well it turned into full blown flu so that was me out of sorts again grrrr. After a trip to the docs and two weeks of being sick free, I'm still stressed but now feeling pretty healthy so I've started running again and actually managed a 10k the other day. I don't usually make new years resolutions but this year I made just one and that was to run 10k...never saw that one coming so soon.

It was great also to get back into my craftroom and this week I made this card for our new Challenge over at Sarah Hurley Challenges.

Jess is our host this weeks and she has chosen the theme

CIRCLES


I used elements from Sarah's Steam Punk CD and her flower stamp

Please check out the dt's projects, they all are super talented and it's great to see how we all tackle the challenge differently.How boring would it be if we all churned out the same stuff...very boring indeed hee hee

But before I go I like to invite you all to join me in our blog hop tomorrow,please check out my post below for details. And just wait until you see Sarah's new collection, it totally rocks and there's elements in there that all you *SMASHERS* out there def need.


Enjoy your night and I'll look forward to seeing you all tomorrow :)

Exciting Times Ahead

I did promise I'd be back to share my news even if it is tad later than planned. Earlier Lewis took a tumbling and managed to burst his lip. He's managed to get himself in a right mess, blood everywhere, a very enlarged lip and screaming that's still ringing in my ear. Good news is he's doped with Calpol and sleeping like a baby, I'm hoping it stays that way throughout the night and I'm so not looking forward to seeing what he looks like in the morning. My poor wee lamb, he's forever getting himself in a pickle.....sounds familiar lol

Anyway onto my news which I've been bursting to tell for months but I was under strict instructions by the 'boss' to keep a tight lip. This week Sarah Hurley launched craft academy! It's a brand new website that will provide weekly inspirational projects and tutorials for all kind of crafts. It's going to be huge and I'm absolutely thrilled to be a part of this new and very exciting adventure. Sarah has posted on her blog all the details but if you want to check out the website then click here.

We also have our first challenge of the year start today and we are sponsored by our very own princess...sarah. Sarah has donated a fabulous prize from her shop and the dt girls have made projects that's will def get your mojo going. I'm sorry to say I don't have a project this week, my printer finally died on me and with holidays and me being poorly I've not manged to hit the shops to get a new one :-(

Please check out our challenge blog here.

I've been a very bad blogger of late but I promise I will swing by your way soon.
