INTO THE FUTURE....
Well, who'd a thought it, eh?? One whole year of blogging and I'm still not bored! It has been a voyage of discovery for me - mainly how many amazing people are out there, when all we hear on the news is the bad stuff. It has been wonderful to have been on the receiving end of friendship, joy, support (oh, boy did I need THAT recently...) but most of all, FUN and the sheer enjoyment of creating. This sums it all up for me....
We had such fun - thank you Di, Elizabeth, Alan for coming to see Julia, myself and Gordon. It was a day of laughter and chatting....oh, and a little bit of shopping too! Doesn't get much better than that :D Elizabeth had made beautiful albums for us...
This is mine - isn't it gorgeous? It's so detailed - I wouldn't know where to start!! Thank you, Elizabeth, I love it.
I made something small for the ladies as well...
Bling Bins!! I know that crafters find these little hanging bins handy, but I used some of my extra special trimmings...
I bought these from an Indian lady at Ally Pally at least three years ago and have never brought myself to use them...until now :) I think the bling adds a certain jazziness, even though I say so myself!
OK, in honour of my 1st Bloggaversary, I'm going to hold a giveaway, the prize being a Bling Bin. But the eventual winner will have a choice of fabrics and blings! If you would like to enter, please indicate your preference for both!
BUBBLES
DRAGONFLY
SPOTS/DAISIES
and....
from top downwards: PEARLS: PINKS: ORANGE/TEAL: MULTI.
So, if you fancy the top fabric with the third row of bling, just indicate BUBBLES/ ORANGE & TEAL on your comment. I don't mean this to be complicated, it's just that the winner gets the colours that they prefer *grin*
It'll be interesting to see everyone's colour preferences!
Please can I just add that this giveaway does extend to those overseas, but I would ask that I send the bean bag part out empty for you to fill yourself and slipstitch shut, otherwise the postage will cost an arm and a leg!!
Thank you again for the wonderful camaraderie over the year and to Julia especially, for getting me started and for being an awesome mate.
