I taught my last class for a while at Simply Said last weekend - a mixed media canvas and everyone did brilliantly - all SO different.  These are mine - you've seen them on here before - Using similar techniques, the girls all had a ball with Glimmermist and all sorts of yummy crafty goodn...

I've been sitting on my ass at this computer so much for the last year it's atrocious really - scrapping, photo-editing, Facebooking, blogging etc!  This year of course is the year I told myself I was getting back in control and it started with cutting back my workload, getting my emot...

Oh dear this month has been crazy-busy!  Personally I blame the school holidays for starting the ball rolling on my disorganisation, but I know it's not that, it's ME!  I have SO much that I want to blog from the last couple of weeks that I just do not know where to begin.  So I'll ju...
