Inspirations Workshop

Good Morning Bloggers,

Here are two of the cards I taught as Saturday's workshop held at Inspirations By Card Craft Plus in Preston.

The class was centered around a single stamp, this month we used the Real Blossom from Hero Arts.

Using Distress Stains we created some unique flowers that look yummy in the spring yellows and oranges.

We all had such a lovely day, what a great set of Ladies! If an advert was to be placed about them, GOS (good sense of humor) would be at the very top. Looking forward to seeing you all on the 27th for the demo event....

Love Sarah xx

2012 and I'm back!!!

Good Morning Everyone,

I know its been a while but I'm back for 2012!!!
Hope that you have all had a lovely Christmas and a super New Year! Can't
wait to see you all at workshops, shows and events over the next few
months!

So our beautiful little boy Rowan James Roy McCrossan was born on Friday
29th July 2011, he is just amazing!!!
Above is a little picture of him playing under his baby gym.

After spending 6 wonderful months with my wee man I am back to work.
Although I was apprehensive as first and miss him dearly I am thoroughly
enjoying getting back into the swing of things, seems like so much has been
going on in the NHS and I am spending lots of time reading new initiatives,
directives and policies and attending catch up meetings.
So now back to the serious business of crafting, I have a very full diary
of events for this Spring, which is great, I have missed all my crafting friends
and partners loads!!!
