Well all I am not sure what to write as again today I am a bit stunned, I rec’d a call from SIMPLYCARDS AND PAPERCRAFTS a few weeks back telling me I had won their Card maker of the year competition, and could I not announce it or tell anyone abput it until the article was published on th 13th…. My prize is £2,650.00 worth of craft goodies (five gianormous boxes, I might add) of the most fantastic stuff and to be a design team memeber for their fabulous magazine, you can imagine I was fiot to burst and have been since then……
AND TODAY I have just got back from the shops after rushing out to buy said magazine to which I must tell ya I felt sick with fright whilst I wandered around the shop trying to pluck up courage to pay for the flaming thing, I mean how silly is that…. well back to what I found when I got home… ANOTHER parcel from papercrafts essentail this time, I have got RUNNERS UP PRIZE for PAPER CRAFTER OF THE YEAR….
WELL TO SAY i AM STUNNED IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT….and I shall just leave ot there for the mo as I need a STRONG STEWED CUPPA TEA TO BRING ME BACK TO EARTH……….
PS apologies for any spellimg mistake me head is fuzzy now!!!!!
Opps and WELL DONE TO ALL THOSE RUNNERS UP OF CARDMAKER OF THE YEAR AND TO THE wINNER OF PAPWERCRAFTER OF THE YEAR ADN THE OTHER RUNNER UPS……
