How long has it been ?

It seems like a very long time since I was last on here, so without further ado I will blog :D
I've just been playing with my London Stamps which you can find here :here at Creative Journey Workshops
( I was excited to see them in print in July's Craft Stamper magazine !)
I've wanted to do something Dr Who'ish with the old police telephone box, so I've just inked up this tag, added the words with some mini letter stamps I have and there we have an ideal Dr Who party invite !

I will go & write up the instructions for making the tag on the online workshops here on this blog (tab at the top)
Thanks for stopping by x

A fine time was had by all ....

So, the mini Holtz Holiday has been & gone, we spent all day Saturday & Sunday playing with a bountiful stash of Ranger & Tim Holtz Products, we made a book housing 9 tags and also a mini Holtz Tag book ... so we were busy busy busy, but everyone kept up admirably & produced some beautiful works of artfulness !

So here ares ome of the photo's from my lovely weekend away. BIG thanks to Lia & Joan for making us feel so welcome, & it was great to catch up with Linda E even if she did tell big fibs about me breaking her handbag with a story (See linda's blog for that!) It turned out it wasn't part of the original bag I broke, It was a charm from Next ...Bad bad Linda lol :D
We did make & takes, ate lot's of lovely food, did workshops, went to the beach on Sunday, generally had a FAB time ... we also met some really lovely ladies whilst we were there too !
Lia's shop is glorious ... huge, full of LOVELY stash(some of which naturally had to come home with me :o) )
I also want to thanks Rob & Marcell, Joan & Lia's lovely husbands who cooked for us & drove us round ... & of course I have to mention Lia's adorable little girl Yasmine, once she got used to mine & Linda's craziness we had a lot of fun !
So I hope you enjoy the pictures, there are more But I need to turn them all around so that they will work in a slide show, will try & get that done later this week, so for now have fun, thanks for stopping by :o) x
