What did I do Last Year?

Happy New Year!

Hope you had a marvellous Christmas?

This is me making the 3 bird roast of turkey, goose and chicken. It was very tasty indeed!


2013 was an incredible year for me, I started the year off on the PaperArtsy design team.
What an honour, love Leandra and Mark. 

Then had the chance to do a spot of demoing at Alexander Palace for PaperArtsy too. It was heaving and met a lot of people from Twitter. :)


As if 2013 couldn't get any better Dyan Reaveley gave me an amazing opportunity to teach at Art from the Heart. I was a nervous wreck, but I enjoyed it immensely because the ladies and occasionally a gentlemen were really lovely and supportive :)


Then I was made redundant from work, so I had more time on my hands to make bread and to craft!


I had a dabble in other art too and tried oil painting. 


Which resulted in a painting being put in an exhibition in the Infinity Cafe in Stockton-on-Tees.
My little painting xx


I had a bumper crop in the garden this year, the sunshine made everything ripen quickly..a bit too quickly!


Then I went back into work in September, back to my first love geology.


I wonder where 2014 will take me?
Looking forward to the adventure.

I have heaps more crafty classes lined up too, can't wait. xx
Have a fantastic 2014

  10. What an amazing year... I've no idea how your blog fell off my dashboard, but it hasn't been updating me. I've just re-signed in, so I'm hoping it will let me know again now, so that I don't miss anything!
