A bit of an update....

Hello friends

I'm still doing a happy dance for reaching more than 500 followers!!

I've been putting together a lovely goodie box for the winner
who will be announced very soon.

Congratulations to Lynn who is the lucky number winner from October's
Charity Kit.  6 Waltzing Mouse stamp sets are now on their way to her.
November Charity Add-On Kit details are here - just in case you missed it.. :)

Thank you for all your emails, comments and questions, I think I'm a little behind in

answering a few so a bit of Q and A today...

Christine, what has happened to your new website?

Yes, where is it indeed??
It is finished and it is ready to go but there is a hold up with
the e-commerce side of it all, the site has to be checked out by the debit/credit
card people and they are slower than a herd of snails travelling through peanut butter!
My web designer man is on to it this week so fingers crossed.

Christine, what has happened to Mitchell lately?

This one is easy to answer - he has been struck down with that incurable affliction
called....LOVE!  He is attending college but spends a great deal of his time
with his girlfriend Beith and looking happy!
He isn't very productive in the helping department but I'm obviously very pleased for him ;)
Here they are - just to clarify Beith is wearing a blue wig!
They both dressed up for a comic expo in London.

Christine, will you be teaching any classes this year?

Yes - I really want to!  I am hoping to do one class -
a Christmas class and this is a sneak peek of the project.

It involves over 14 sheets of 12 x 12 My Mind's Eye - Vintage Christmas paper

and a whole bottle of Cosmic Shimmer glue! 

At the moment, with the help of my family, it looks like I can do the class on Sunday 8 December.
All the details will be on the new website but just in case there is a further delay I will
be posting them here on the blog within the next week or so.

Next year there will be lots and lots of classes, both online, kits and in the studio...
so many plans for next year that I've gone into two notebooks!

Christine, will your studio/shop be open on a regular basis?

Yes!  From the beginning of next year there will be certain days each week
when the studio/shop will be open.  'Coffee and Create' is going to be a weekly fixture
Tea is also available but 'Tea and Create' didn't quite have the same ring to it!
There will of course be cake, goes without saying really!

I am still going to have to keep my City job two days a week, I blame the boys you know -

they are costly to keep and of course, that dog demands the best!

So hopefully that has wrapped up a few things today.
As always, I'm happy to answer any questions - always feel free to email.

And before I go, just a reminder to keep furry babies safe this evening with
bonfires, fireworks etc.
I recommend just staying in and eating the yummy food....!

We've had so many fireworks the last few nights that Bella
has needed badger to cuddle!


Take care friends.
