Busy weekend
Hi everyone and thanks to those who left comments on my last post, I love it when people say Hi and let me know they've passed by, so please don't be shy leave me a comment even if its only hello!
I've had a rather hectic few days and weekend. Last Wednesady evening I had a stall at a craft fayre at a local school, it was really busy and I sold quite a few cards as well as lots of beaded jewellery and sold out of "altered notebooks" I think I'd priced them a bit low but they were a great "calling bird" bringing people over to my stall many of whom bought other items too.
I had a hectic weekend, visiting friends, managed to persuade my other half to take me up to Hobbycraft at Gateshead to have a crafty spend Woo hoo.
I also treated myself to a Clippykit brag bag which I've decorated with atc's I've received in swaps.
Theres some more fab ideas for decorating them in the gallery on their website, aren't they a great idea?

I like it so much I'm going to get another and fill it with small scrapbook layouts, collage images etc.
Then today I FINALLY got round to making a card for the daring cardmakers weekly challenge ... and discovered I'm NOT that daring after all !
I have to be honest I find it very difficult to break out of my comfort zone and tend to find a style or theme I like and stick to it - which is, I guess, what these dares are all about.
Anyway I hope it's ok - you can see it here as for some reason I just cannot get a second photo to upload - maybe someone can tell me why?

Hi Jan
Your card is great -how come, it's only today, when looking for something else that I've found at least 5 different foreign language papers I could have used?
I really like the Chinesey one very classic and stylish.
As for images - sometimes you have to empty your cache to persuade Blogger to load your photos - I haven't a clue why, but it does work - only problem is you then have to log in all over the place with all your passwords again.
Jan - what a fantastic card - your embossing is wonderful
Thanks so much for taking part - and Ilove your bag with the ATC's in :-)
