Stash on Ebay


Hi folks!
Another beautiful day and I've been sat at the computer most of the day listing my stash on ebay.  I've been able to list 100 items and still have more to go but will have to wait until next month as I've run out of my increased allowance!!!  Feel free to have a browse here, you might just bag a bargain!

Mr C is away to work so I'll need to go and take our four legged friend for her walk.  There must be some advantage gained by walking as Mr C has lost 5 kilos since his last docs check up 6 months ago ... should I try it too???

Our week away with friends was brilliant and we thoroughly enjoyed the Golden Wedding Celebrations.  We were able to meet up with another couple of friends (who flew over from Spain) so a good time was had by all.

I've got some photos to share with you of a very brave little duck who had made her nest in the garden about 2 yards from the front door of the retirement home where our friends live.  My friend talked to her every day and she didn't hiss once, until her babies were born.

Hugs

Thanks


Hi to everyone!  A big big thank you to everyone who has been in touch.  Unfortunately nobody has so far been able to change my mind about selling up and for that, I'm sorry, but never say never!!!

For anyone who's interested I have started listing my stuff on ebay but have run out of selling allowances so am waiting for ebay to increase that for me so I can get the rest of my bits and pieces onto the site.  I've still got loads to go ie dies, embossing folders etc so keep popping back!

Off to meet my granddaughter - she wants to borrow money!!!  I love the word 'borrow'!

A Big Decision


I've decided to give up crafting.  It has become a chore rather than a pleasure and I just can't work up any enthusiasm any more even when I have such wonderful blogging friends and so much beautiful inspiration around me.

I am in the process of photographing all my zillions of stuff which will be put on ebay when I've got everything organised.  

It has been an honour and pleasure being part of the crafting scene and I will hopefully keep in touch with many of my cyber friends.

I'll keep you posted when my stuff goes onto ebay in case there's anything that might tempt you!!!

Big hugs to all

Cupcake - DT


I've had to schedule this post as today's our friends' golden wedding anniversary celebrations and we are down south to join in the fun!

I can't believe it's September ... where has the rest of the year gone?  Today is the monthly Cupcake Craftroom challenge with the theme of Pretty Pastels.  The DT were given Mandy's latest collection of papers with the same name to play with.  Wow they are beautiful and so easy to work with.

Enjoy your day, and I'll see you soon.
Hugs
Anne xx
