Today is the end of a very long couple of weeks.  I've uploaded some Christmas stamps (hahaaaaaaa yes you read that right - but Christmas Cards need to be started early in our crafting world - don't they???)

Hopefully next week I can use this Blog to encourage me to craft more ...don't expect miracles!  It's very true what they say "if you don't use it; you lose it" and the less I craft the harder I find it to get back into the swing.  So next week will have me spending time EVERY DAY in my craft room to try and get back to doing what I really love. 

If you have been following me so far then a great big thank you for hanging in there - I hope I don't let you down.................. Hugs

I don't know whether to be shocked or embarrassed today.  I thought I had put together practically all the ribbons I own when I found a little box with some of my favourite ribbons in.  I treasured them so much I had put them away and forgotten all about them.    Tempted to put them back in the box but what's the sense!!  Might as well go to another loving home lol.  I can keep a metre for myself and move on ...............

I'm trying to think of something nice to say about today - this miserable weather doesn't inspire me so perhaps I will just upload some more ribbons - I had a light bulb moment though  because I have placed them around a 6 x 6 cardstock 3 at a time which shows the front/back of the ribbon which sometimes can be quite different AND (more important) I can do them quicker ........... SIMPLES!!!!!!!  only taken me to now to make life a tad easer lol duhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

What a miserable day here today - garden looking very green (trying to put a positive slant on a "June Summer Day".  I've decided not to venture out today so I've uploaded some gold toned ribbons - unfortunately my battery bailed out on me so I'll just upload what I've done so far and return later.

Hope you all had an enjoyable Jubilee Holiday.  I thought the Mall was absolutely amazing - the last time I was there was for Diana's funeral.... if OH hadn't been away I am sure we would have travelled and spent a couple of days in the Capital!  I'm still ploughing through my ribbons - one more lot to go which are the blacks/whites and maybe a few other bits and pieces then I am giving my sales a rest.   I hope you can find something you like - took me 3 hours lol.   Hopefully I can get my head around doing some crafting next week :)
