Coming To The End...

...blimey!  Cor blimey infact!  I can't believe that this year has gone so quickly... not sure about you but I am sure as I am getting older, the days are getting shorter... I mean really?  24 full hours in a day?  Doesn't seem that way!  Anyways.... coming to an end... is actually referring to my class on Saturday coming at The Stamp Attic... tis my very last class of 2012.  I am booking through 2013 at the moment and the first dates are now being added to the sidebar.  I am hoping to be able to travel a bit further afield in 2013 and hope to be able to pop to Scotland for a weekend or two.  Any more deets I get about new dates, I will pop into the sidebar as and when.


I have been having a couple of "sort it out" days this week... basically my Room of Stash had become a dumping ground, what with classes to prep, articles to finish and shows to sample, it had gotten a little out of hand... to the point that the boxes were having boxes, the ink pads were starting to fight and as for the rubber stamps, they were causing havoc... teetering in piles and toppling over so soon a light waft of breeze hit them.  A few binliners later I have some semblance of order... and finally able to unpack my bags from my trip to the NEC at the beginning of the month!  I know! It was that bad!  Still, it was nice to see what I had bought as I hadn't a clue!  Like an extra secret surprise!

You may have noticed the lack of pictures on this post... that is cos I am working on something at the mo and I haven't got to the "wanting to take a photo of it yet" stage...  hopefully it will be finished tomorrow and I will be able to show it.  Oh and... another thing I am doing... I unearthed several half-finished class projects... so I am busy finishing them off too!  I never get a chance to finish stuff in classes because, as anyone who has ever attended one, I am rubbish at concentrating and end up gassing all day!  As I seem to be doing now! So I shall bid you a goodnight and say... as ever... thanks for looking!   Also... a huge thank you to the stores and craft groups who have asked me to teach and demo with them this year... it has been wonderful... I loved every single class and it was fab to meet so many lovely peeps!   TTFN!

PS...The gig the other night... oh my! It was totes-amazebobs...  I spent about an hour faffing with my hair and made it look "big" and "curly" and "rocky" and I was loving it!  Worth a whole can of hairspray I can tell you.  The black eyeliner went on, the hair was done.. the nails were done... the scarves were worn... I felt like a rock chick!  Half way thru the gig though it got SO hot... like mental hot... so I went from rock chick to flop chick in about 20 mins... when we came out I looked like I had fallen in a pond... not pretty lol  Still, I felt like I was 15 again which was heartening lol  HERE's a linky to YouTube... some kind bod took vids of the gig...

I did wonder what the 'coming to the end' meant. I have some crafty friends up in Scotland who will be delighted that you are going to try to go up there! So glad that you enjoyed the show, would love to see the before and after photos..... Hugs, Anne x
