So much for thinking I was giving up!!!

As my friends had kindly pointed out... not to give up! LOL,

the thought came right out of my mind.

I have booked a table in My son's school summer Fair!

So, out came my beading and a load of cards that

were ready to sell!

I now have 4 boxes of different cards, and a selection of

beading made and being made.

The fair is a week tomorrow!!!!

I will take some photos of the day and show them to you.

Race For Life

On Wednesday 9th July I will be doing the Race for life at Coombe Abby Park.

This could be the final year I will do this, as I have been suffering

so much with pain in my back and now my feet!

I do this race in honour of my Mum in-law who died of Cancer

2005, the same year my Daughter was born.

My Mum in-law fought Cancer for 5 long years.

PLEASE PLEASE sponsor me, there is a link on the top of this page on the

left hand side. I would love to raise around £100 but if I could raise more

then that would make my last time even better.

I also wish to remember a dear Neighbour Arthur Goldsmith,

who sadly passed away earlier this month.

Wish me luck, I may just come in last... but at least I will do my very best.

Thanks

Is there a time when you just give up?

Is there a time when you just give up?... ...

I guess thats how I am feeling just now,

that maybe I should sell everything crafty

and give up on trying to make anything.

I have even stopped visiting my beloved crafty forum

because I feel out of it.

I haven't touched my desk in days,

even weeks now.

Im not giving up YET!

But its been a thought in my mind for a long time.

I have been spending time playing around in Facebook,

I feel at home there just playing and having

a laugh.

I am still Alive and kicking... really!

just not as active.

Paper Nation Card

Hubby asked me at the weekend to

make a card for someone at work.

It took me a while to find what he wanted

on the card but once we had decided on it,

I found it very easy to put together.

Here is the box I decided to use matching paper

to tie it into the card.
Here is the finished design.
Hubby was very pleased with it.
I would love to know what you all think?!
