Lunch box

 It's been a fortnight since my last post so thought I ought to post and let you know what I've been up to. It's been a busy 2 weeks with appointments etc and very little crafting. I suffer with a few medical problems and find some things very difficult and no 2 days are ever the same. But crafting tends to get me through the hard times.
 I'm quite excited as I emailed into create and craft during one of Leonie's shows and was lucky enough to be drawn out of the cup. I'm just awaiting her make as she's asked for it to be made into something and then photographed to see what was made of it. Finger's crossed it arrives soon as this was a week ago Thursday during a spellbinders show. It's the 1st time I've ever been picked out of the cup.
 Today I want to try out a tutorial from the Graphic 45 blog:- Graphic 45 lunch box. I will post a photo once it's complete but do follow the link and try it out for yourselves. I've seen several projects on there that I want to have a go out. It's a chance to increase my skills in different things. Especially as my mum and I have the chance of a craft stall at out local Women's Section conference in November. This was because one of the committee members attended our yearly ploughman's lunch in August and had seen all my decorated gift bags on the tombola store that both my mum and I run every year now. I'd felt when we took it over that it needed jazzing up and have the creative skills went to town with decorative papers and embellishments managed to achieve just that and have managed to go from strength to strength with it. I just wish I'd remembered to take my camera with me to take a picture of the stand.

Happy crafting
