News

Hi Everyone,

I don't have a post today, well not yet anyway, but I have some great news that I'd like to share with you all. I've been asked to join the team at CLP Challenge Blog, I was thrilled when Chelsea e-mailed me, I love following a good sketch and every month there is always a fantastic sketch here.

My fellow newbies are:

• Anne
• Corry
• Debbie
• Pop
• Sandy

We join the team, who are:

• Bonnie
• Chelsea
• Dunja
• Elise
• Eulanda
• Lori
• Stephanne
• Tanja

There's still time to enter the current sketch Sketch #46, and it's a beauty,

here's my card that I actually entered into the challenge,

I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for all of their kind words about my creations, it really does mean a lot. Sandra, aka Craftynan, you weren't nagging, lol. I was brought up to be quite unassuming, in fact one of my Mam's sayings was 'Self praise is no recommendation'. I've been blogging for just over a year, and when I first found card blogland I was blown away by the talent of everyone out there, and it was only in my wildest dreams that I ever dared imagine I'd reach anywhere near the upper echelons of talent. I love making my cards, I especially love colouring, and I am grateful for the escape it has given me (those new to my blog, my story in a nutshell, my dad was admitted to hospital on December 14th last year, both my mam and dad had been a bit poorly for a while, on December 22nd they were both diagnosed with cancer, my mam died on January 3rd and my dad on the day of her funeral on January 13th).
I am so honoured, and humbled, to have been asked to join such great DT's and I've now been GDT at two great challenge blogs, 6 months ago I looked at the DT work and drooled and I am now rubbing shoulders with, as a crafty friend put it 'crafting celebs'. Sandra, I promise I'll (try) to start believing in myself.

I hope you all have a great day,

Hugs,

Becky xx
