More Awards!!

Hi guys.  Well I am finally back up and running again with internet access after having been without for about 5 days - most frustrating it was too!!  Anyway I am back now and have been trying to catch up in blogland!

My thanks to everyone who stopped by my table at the weekend - it was lovely to meet you all and thanks so much to all those of you who said such kind things to me!  I do hope that you enjoyed all the other demos there too. 

I have been really fortunate over this last week or so to be given two more blog awards!!  I NEVER get these so it means SO much to me to have got three awards in two weeks!!  I can't thank the ladies in question enough.

So without further ado my first award is this one from Julie.

Apparently to qualify for this award there are 5 rules that I need to adhere to-

1) I need to thank the person who gave me this award.  Thanks so much Julie!!

2) I need to post it on my blog. As you can see I've done that!

3) I need to list 3 things that I love about myself!!  Now this is really hard but I'll have a go......................I love that I've been blessed with common sense as my poor Mum really doesn't have any which has got her into a few scrapes in the past! (Sorry Mum!!) I love that I'm a natural blonde although very recently I tried out several different hair colours!!  And lastly I love that I have a crafting ability as this has enabled me to try out several different types of crafts all of which I've enjoyed doing.

4) I need to post a picture that I love.  So here you go...............this is of me when I was 19 months old with my Nan who is sadly no longer with us.

5) And lastly I need to pass this onto 5 other blogging friends and this is the really hard bit!! But here goes - Sharon, Tracy, Mustavcoffee, Chris Dark and Lisa and to all of you who have supported me since I started my blog as I truly appreciate it!

Now onto my second lovely award which I've been awarded both by Sharon and Tracy - thanks so much guys!!

Apparently I need to tell you why I began blogging and the answer is VERY simple - when I was demonstrating at stamping shows or taking classes at shops I kept being asked why I didn't have a blog so in the end I thought I had better get my act together and start one up!!

Now I am supposed to pass this onto 10 other people but I just can't choose so to anyone who has left me a comment over the last 10 days please take this award as a thank you!!
