Still no pictures!

I've actually spent some time in my craft room, nearly finished two layouts and made some cards, but I still haven't taken pictures of them to post - will do this soon. We had people staying in one of the holiday cottages and they were keen to learn about scrapbooking so I helped them make a few pages in the craft room. They're now hooked and keen to carry on when they get home having left with their newly created pages and two albums to fill with more.
One of my nearly-finished pages is of our pony Lucky who is out on loan at the moment and I need to do a journaling card to put on the layout telling his story so far, but then writing things down isn't exactly my strong point. I'll make it a 'detached' card that fits into something so I can do a little now and change it when I have more time.
Did a wonderful class at Stampaholics in Perth last week and have another one to go to tomorrow, so looking forward to that. I think we're making a desk calendar using the bind-it-all. More pictures which need uploading so I'll challenge myself to do it before another week goes by.

A STEP INTO THE UNKNOWN!!!

Well, I've finally taken the plunge and set up a blog. Not sure how often I'll remember to update it but I'll give it a go anyway. Perhaps this will give me the push I need to get into my craft room and do what I enjoy doing - crafting! Always other things to distract me and keep me from getting in there but now I need some completed pages to post to my new blog.

I've been set a challenge by the lovely ladies who came for a crop retreat so I may start with that instead of a page. Have a pile of beer mats ready to be made into mini-books with the aid of my bind-it-all and pics of my special little ponies. Can't wait!
