So very happy - I have won my first ever blog award



I am so happy to receive my first ever blog award from my Sylvia who is my bestest friend.  We only met about 3 years ago through an online craft forum Trimcraft and met up at the University of Derby when they hosted a Max Papercraft Show and our friendship has grown and grown and I couldn't wish for a better friend.

No I think I have to tell you 7 facts about me.  Sylvia will probably know all of them anyway.

1. I have been married to Rob for the past 31 years now
2. My son and his partner have just added another grandchild Frankie to my list of grandchildren
3. I started crafting (knitting and crochet) when I was only about 8 years old
4. I love spending lots of time with my family and friends
5. I have been successful in securing some funding for the Creative Minds Craft Group and am in the process of applying for some more.  GOOD TIMES
6. I am really worried about my son Kim going back to Afghanistan in September
7. I love going away in my caravan or on Spa Days/Weekends

Well now I have to give this award to blogs that I love to visit

Aly - I just love the projects Aly makes
* Rozzy - who is another fantastic crafter and great friend that I met on Trimcraft
Natalie - who has a great sense of humour and makes some fantastic cards and jewellery
* Rach - just have a look at her blog and the stunning cards that she has made
* Elaine  - I love Elaines cards and her blog
* Elaina - Elaina has some absolutely stunning cards on her blog full of inspiration
* Tracy - Tracy is another friend met through Trimcraft and her cards are absolutely fantastic

I hope that you will pop over to their blogs and have a look at their fantastic work.
