Farewell




The tears keep falling as we dearly miss our beloved Champers. Our beautiful toy poddle of the last 131/2 years has passed away. Its hard to except the fact that she is no longer going to come running to the door with her happy barking and wag of the tail. No more cuddles on the lounge watching movies. Who going to finish off the left overs at dinner? Tevan is finding it the hardest and Leticia knows that she is in dog heaven playing with all the other puppies. But I still call her name and in the corner of my eye think she is there. We all loved her dearly and will miss her forever. She is now at peace and will forever be remembered.

How Time Passes Quickly

Wow a few months later and I'm back .... not for to long just thought I better type something so you know that I am still here and kicking. Very busy at the 2 stores at the moment with stocktake finally over I have a lot of backend stuff to catch up on now. Hopefully I will see past the bookwork soon and back to enjoying life more. But someone (me) came up with a bright idea to start a Flower Soft Club at Crafty so it took off bigger than ever expected which now my spare time is now designing projects for the club which is soooo fabulous as I love playing with Flowersoft. So touch base again soon to catch up with the life of me. Bye

Wow this year is moving fast. I can't beleive it is Winter. This also means a buzy time at the shop with setting up for stocktake, but tomorrow I am off to Bumble Bee Crafts for a Trade Class with Lance Anderson from Rusty Pickle. This will be fabulous. I first met Lance 3 years ago at Scrapbooking and Beyond Trade Conference and had the best workshop at the event. The following year we were lucky enough to have Lance teach a class in store at Scraps to Share in the Brassall Shopping Center - it was arrr great Pirate Party. The best news is we have Lance again this year and will be back to school going popping mad with inspiration.


The class will be held on the 4th June at 6pm for a 6.30 start $80.00 p/p which includes the kit, a signed photo with Lance, drinks and supper plus lots and lots of FUN. All you need to bring is a smile and your basic tool kit (tacky tape also).

I will post some photos tomorrow night of my day at Bumble Bees.

The long awaited design for the top. Simple yet took me long enough to decided.
