U.I.U

I came across this site whilst looking for inspiration, and have to say it's a fab idea. I've signed up and will post my first creation in the next couple of days.

The idea is to use up your craft stash and only buy essentials like glue. We all have tones of paper, stamps and inks. I know I haven't got any spare cash so will relish the challenge of using it up.

New Year, New Start.

A warm welcome to the start of a new year. My last post was full of promise and hope, but the very next day my life took a turn for the worst; and kept getting that way. There is very little that life can throw at me now that I haven't already experienced. My heart was heavy with sadness that the people I loved could treat me with so much contempt and disappointment. In fact my heart shut down and my creativity with it.
I have learnt much these last 6 months, which of my friends are always going to be my friends and stand by me. How loved by my parents and my children I am, ( even though they have caused their fair share of heartache ). Who has my best interests in mind, and that I need to give myself permission to fail on a regular basis. It's OK to not get things right.
So the past few days have been better, and my head is full of creativity; buzzing with images and ideas.
When I have something to show I will.
