WOYWW 356

It's surprising I remembered that today is Wednesday - the day for a good look at everybody's work desk - HERE.  Usually when we're off school I forget what day of the week it is but with Hannah home from Uni for a couple of weeks she is going out to work in her part time job at 7:40 every morning, so I still have to get up (but I can get back into bed after she leaves :-) I didn't get round to taking a photo of my NEC shopping last week, so here it is today - well, some of it anyway - the stuff that hasn't been tidied away yet!  I really enjoyed my day out and the special bonus this time was being able to visit the Cake show as well.  I bought some cake decorating sprinkles etc as well as pieces of fabric and craft basics like card packs, cellophane bags, DS tape, but the photo shows paper, die cut decoupage, dies, a crochet pattern, buttons, cotton lace in lovely colours, pink and blue card and some of the 'word' dies - I have even used a couple of them already for this Engagement card I was asked to make. On the way back through airport security my bag was completely unpacked and searched - I got a few strange looks and was asked if I was going to bake myself a cake!!  I took some photos of the lovely cakes on display and they can be viewed on my facebook page (see sidebar for the link)

  5. Morning Bernice. Glad you had such a good time at NEC. It's a long way for you to come over, but it certainly sounds as though you made good use of the journey. I'd have loved to have gone - we have done in the past - but it just wasn't possible this year.
    Lovely card you have made.
    Take care. God bless.

  16. Shopping can be an inspiring experience, can't it? I like the textural treatment to your card. It's crisp and neat but still has a frilly appeal. Nice
