Can you say CATASTROPHE?

Hi, my Lovelies!

I used to have the most perfect craft space....used to.......and now, I don't!

We have a small, brick-built stable block, and for the first few years it was a storage space (more like dumpin' space, lol) for all the odds and ends that every family accumulates.....and then, I had a lightbulb moment.....why not use it for my craft space?

A great deal of grovelling later.......and, nope, you don't need the details......I'd finally persuaded Ken to clear out all the stuff we didn't need to keep (aren't car boot sales great!), and I had a beautiful room where I could create to my heart's content!

Ken had bought and fitted lovely kitchen units, cupboards, drawers, and the longest, smoothest worktop.....what more could a crafting diva want?

Weeeeeelllll.....I'll tell ya...........she wants to sit in her swively chair, surrounded by her multitude of stamps, ribbons, paper, card, bling, etc., etc., and lose herself in all things crafty.........

Now, I'll tell ya what she doesn't want............

She doesn't want the roof to fall in on her, and ruin her wonderful crafting space!!!!

So, what does He-who-is-not- in-the-dog-house-but-way-beyond-the-dog-house-and-squeezing-in-with-the-rabbit  have to say about this catastrophe?

Let me quote......."Oh, that'll be all the squirrels and pigeons that run across the roof, then."!!!!!

I will say nothing further on this matter, either here, or in the privacy of my home........until I can speak without grindin' my teeth!!

Here's one I made earlier....

(just as flippin' well, too!)

The base is a piece of Bazzil which I lightly sanded, then layered on a piece of ribbed kraft card which I inked.....

Another piece of kraft was diecut with my Nesties, then inked, and a pink heart (which I found on the floor, under my desk :D) was placed onto it, with a pretty pink gem stuck on for good measure.......

The ticket was a freebie, which I coloured with Promarkers (yay for Promarkers!).....added a couple of scraps of DP.......

........tied some really pretty ribbon (left over from a wedding card) around the whole card......and there we have it!!

Hope you are having a better week than me, lol......and I gained 2 pounds, to boot........flippin' eck......bah humbug (the politest thing I feel like sayin', right now). :D
