Challenge 97 - Its a man thing!

Howdy there folks - I hope you're all well in our little corner of Blogland.

I'd like to send lots of love and prayers to all the people who were affected by 9/11, a sad day indeed.

Have you had wind? We have and its been awful! I am of course referring to the wind which blows outside! Blimey its been really wild! I think I have to admit we're in Autumn now... even though its not supposed to be until the 21st of September. With a bit of luck we won't have a winter like the last!

Thanks to you who came to play with my sketch - you made a great job!

The RPT has done his stuff and he's picked Feebsy please email me with the challenge number in the title and I'll sort your prize.

So what's the challenge this week? Well its time for a man thing! So lets see something for men/boys/lads/chaps/blokies.... You get my drift? This week we're sponsored by Crafters Companion and the lucky winner will receive £10 to spend on line!

As usual the Gorjussettes have come up trumps.

Well after the garage acrobatics last week my bruises are some lovely shades. They've faded from Dusty Concord and Barn Door to Milled Lavender, hints of Mustard Seed and Bundled sage. I thought describing them that way would give you a clue don't worry I won't frighten you with pictures!

Well now I must pass on mahoosive thanks to all you players last week! However.... I have to say chucking all those names in the RPT with my achey bones was not good.... and the poor old RPT wasn't impressed either. He groaned and grumbled and chugged and stuttered, jammed, whined, smoked, steamed and finally gently dropped a name out..... It took him ages! the name he chose is Lillian Email me your details with the challenge number in the title and I'll sort your super kennyK prize out.

Challenge 92 - its a sketch!


Well howdy there! Have you been having fun in the sun? I have! Well some of it, a fair bit of time has been spent in the kitchen.... lovely in the heat I can tell you. But the sun has been a welcome visitor, I've been kept rather busy replenishing the water in the bird baths. No sooner have I put fresh in and there's a bird, or several in it. So if you have wild birdie visitors remember to give them a drink. They've even been sunbathing! I couldn't believe it the first time I saw one laid on the grass, I thought it had fallen foul of one of my kitties.

So did you find last weeks challenge refreshing in the heat? There were some lovely entries, your kind comments about the DT samples were also very welcome. So who was the lucky winner of those fab digis from Meljen Designs? The RPT has done his stuff and he picked Deloris! Email me your details with the challenge number in the title and I'll sort you your prize out.

This week is a sketch - easy of course ;)) and we're again sponsored by the lovely Joanna Sheen the lucky winner receives £10 to spend in her online store - oh and there's some special new stuff just in ~wink wink~
