I hope I find you well on this lovely Sunday morning. There's something outside we haven't seen for what seems like an age - the SUN whop! Whop! Got to get out there later ........... I had a great day with Isobel and the ladies at Scotch Lodge Farm in the second of our two Enchanted Forest Album workshops.  Thank you Isobel for your hospitality, egg sandwiches fresh from the funky hens and our scrum diddly umptious cream tea, and ladies a huge thank you for coming along and joining me for a fabulously crafty day.          It was lovely to see how much the chicks had grown ........ they were yellow balls of fluff the last time I was there.     The PDF Tutorial for my Enchanted Forest album is now available from the website - here's the link.   I'll be adding the video link to the full album below a little later today so watch this space :-)      Our giveaway this month is the altered ATC Box and Ban...

Pictures of the decorated cover and pages are on the original G45 blogpost if you fancy altering your album in the same way I did.  Here's the link: ...

Afternoon everyone, just got caught up listening to the Archers .  My sister has got me totally addicted to the storyline........  is there no stopping Rob and his controlling ways.   Having sources all the supplies I thought I'd share my make and take project for our stand at this Months Cornwall Papercraft Show .  If you're down Bodmin way on 19th March come along and join us at the Lanhydrock hotel.  Doors open from 10am, there's oodles of must have products for sale and make and takes and demos running throughout the day.   We'll be using paper from the latest Enchanted Forest collection by Graphic 45 for this cute little pocket picture book - perfect for a handbag or a stocking filler for Xmas.  This weekend I'm heading over to host a demo day at Let's Create , the home of the lovely Jo Channon and her hubby Mark on Saturday, and a workshop on Sunday.  Would be great to see you if you're able to call by the shop on Saturd...
