Changes...



 Change happens all the time... Most of the time we don't see it coming till suddenly we're backed into a corner by things or people we least expected and it's difficult to accept.

I recently decided to step down from working with my Thursday Club group. What can I say? It was a very hard decision for me to make and something I've been wrestling with all summer... I've given 12 years of my life to helping them create every week, watched them grow, enjoyed seeing their faces and being part of their lives, the fun the laughter and often the tears.
 I won't go into the facts, except to say that the church and the people who run the club are really sorry to see me go, they have been amazing, as has my husband who has supported me and believes I've made the right decision.  I'm just sorry it had to be this way. But... Who knows what is round the corner... I'm taking a well earned rest, and I'll still keep in touch...

I saw Jennifer McGuire recently did a video using jigsaw dies and whilst I don't have these dies, funnily enough, I got a couple of packs of jigsaw blanks last week... There's 3 in a pack and they only cost £1 from Inkylicious.

So I made one for a dear friend


Ink blending and embossing really worked well on this


I used stamps by Clearly Besotted and splattered with both water and TH pewter distress stain
I was going to ink blend the edges but decided against it.. I like the white.
It's a fun project and something different.

I hope you are enjoying your day ... The sun is shining here, Ginger boy is out enjoying it and Tabby is doing well. Just shows what a bit of TLC can do.

Till soon
