I hope everyone is OK and  well. .I've not been around much lately we had a lovely week in Spain staying with some friends who live there the weather was great.Then I had the family for a long weekend so its been a busy time I seem as if that's been my year. Never mind the excuses I hope to get to catch up very soon. 
I went to the Great North Create Show at Harrogate on Saturday with some craft group friends it was a bit disappointing not that many stalls and not that busy its not the show it used to be. I think I might need to get to one of the bigger shows elsewhere in the country .I even came home with money left in my purse not like me !!
Have a great week everyone and I hope you can take a look at the challenge. Love and  hugs Carole x

  6. Love the design of the icy scene. Sad that these shows are going down hill. I used to go to Ally Pally twice a year and they had around 60 stalls and now they have about half that. It could be that people can get most things online now. I still like to see and touch things. Hugs, Carol S.xx

  8. Gorgeous elegant snowy card, lovely embellies. Some of the shows aren't as good nowadays especially the bigger ones. I went to Sincerely Yours, about 20 stands but sepnt plenty. All depends who is there, I always check the exhibitors. Doncaster is a good one in July x
