Here's to a Happy New Year!!!


Well folks it's almost the end of another year and who can believe 10 years have flown by in a blur - for me anyway!!


Wow this has been quite a year for me..too many changes for my own good!!! LOL and of course loads of crafting although recently that has taken a bit of a knock...

I would just like to wish you all the best New Year, may you get all you wish for in 2010 and spend it in the company of family and good friends..

Thanks so much to all my visitors and bloggy buddies for your friendship and words of encouragement. You have certainly kept me going these last few months and I really appreciate each and every lovely comment.

So it just goes to say.............

"LANG MAY YER LUM REEK"!!


(Translation: Live Long and Healthy)!!!

The Craft Barn............

Boy! I have been a bad blogger of late, there just isn't enough hours in the day..hopefully I will be visiting you all real soon, so forgive me if I haven't stopped by lately.

I was squirreling away making some stuff for The Craft Barn Blog, so here is a card I made using the cute Whiff of Joy Stamp available by Mail Order HERE.

Kadoodle 7 Nov 09

I also altered this cute wee tin, using texture paste, embossing powder, digital images, prima flowers, acrylic paint, Gold Paint Dabbers, mica flakes, seed beads and Glimmer Mist

The tins are great to use and you can find them HERE at The Craft Barn online.
