Strange to find at a craft fair was a stall for Family history set up by (I think) worcester FHS. Chatted for a while to a very nice gentleman who was disappointed that he couldn't help me as I have no connections in Worcestershire. Apparently some of his ancestors come from Wiltshire so he knew what I meant. :-D

Several sheets (about 10) of toppers that you don't see in the shops, only on line, some (more) gems, some ribbon, 6 different sized reels of double sided tape for £3. An A4 plastic box, four sheets of 12x12 for scrap booking (no i didn't NEED it I have a box full but I liked the paper.Ultra fine nib attachments fro pro markers. stickles, one double ended pen from a bargain box a pack of 4 square cards. some of it was norma price a few things were reduced. All pent up nw. (Until the week after next when no doubt we will visit the big craft shop near Kenal Lol!!!!

Spent over 3.5 hours st the needleork and craft show at Malvern showground today and it was excellent. Managed to spend a lot of money. Could have spent more there were so many lovely dies for the cuttlebug etc and toppers, and paper. And, if you were into crochet or needlework lots of wool stalls and quilting stalls and cross stitch stalls. My other half even found something to buy, a new desk light that was half price.

Linda, I also managed to get the new scrap magazine numbers 1,2 and 4 all three for £8.50 a bargain as they are £4.50 each. :-D

Issue 4 is out Ann as it one of the 2 issues I bought.

I too still miss Scrapbook Inspirations however I thought it was lovely to see a new magazine available and hopefully inspire me to get going again after so long :-D

Linda, I actually found number three by accident in T****s but try as I might haven't found number 4 which should be out. Why make these magazines so difficult to buy. It wasn't bad but not as good as the old Scrapbook Magazine that stopped production. This one seemed more American in the way it was produced.

Incase you didn't know Ann there is a new monthly scrapbook magazine on the market called Scrap 365....now in its 4th edition.

It seems difficult to get hold of at the moment however I managed to snap up the latest 2 editions at a craft shop.

Anyone who lives near enough next weekend 1-3 March is a big craft fair at Malvern. We went the last two years and it was excellent. Going again, Thursday I think.

Great cards Annette thank you.

My last 2 cards are on the blog. Thanks Ann.

Son's card was made from scanned photos, made 2x3 small, one of him as a child at the helm of a catamaran, the other of his grad to seaman star, and one of a navy frigate on northern waters watch.
down the left side i put some signal flag designs, then a lifebuoy picture i found in my stash, which I wove some thread around it to make it look like rope, and then the yellow anchor at the bottom. All glued onto scrapbook maritime card stock.
This I will be posting away on Monday with his small cakes, which I hope will arrive intact.

Annette :-)
