Wish you were here..

Had a truly fab day on Saturday at the 2 Scrap Ladies event. Here you can see Carmen diligently making up a LO for the March calendar. It was one of many. Every time she finished one, she had to gaze at wall posted with 24 calendar LOs and choose her next. We do understand that you only need 12, but we offered a choice, see. It was quite revealing. Ally (the other Scrap Lady) and I felt that our 'styles' were sufficiently far apart to be easily identifiable and different enough in terms of product and preferred techniques to offer a choice, so we did a set of calnedar pages each. I used BG Lemonade as my base pack, Ally chose for the most part, American Crafts. That part worked well. Turned out that no-one could quite pin the right style on either of us - which is fab; every time they picked a LO to do by Ally, I took the credit for it. Obviously. I take no credit for the groove of the day, it was friendly, warm and chatty..just how I like it. In fact, some of us were so comfortable that there was an outbreak of slippers..

We kitted everything and despite a couple of brad-less episodes, there were no heart stopping moments through lack of stuff -although I did have to go home and get some bits and pieces, but I blame a high temperature on that sort of forgetfulness. OK, that was the last time I'll use it as an excuse, but have I mentioned that I've been unwell?! Mr Dunnit came at lunch time bearing the gorgeous frames; he made them up to order - Oak was the runaway favourite frame.

So that's it. First one over, all wrinkles ironed. If you can find a hall and a minimum of six people, we can bring A Magnetic Year in a Day to you. Now, that could be fun!

So much of a return to normality today that I don't know where to start. Domestic imperatives are to be found in every room, and there's a serious deadline or three for Workshop samples....please Lord, let my Mojo be resting peacefully on my desk when I finally sit down to start something this evening!
