On my Way Home


Well if you are reading this on Sunday morning I am on my way home from 15 days in sunny Florida. Yes we arranged to have the new heating system installed whilst we were away on holiday. I hope you enjoyed my scheduled posts and thanks for all your lovely comments. I will be rather busy for a few days now, unpacking, washing and ironing, sorting out my holiday purchases, unpacking my craftroom and getting the house back to normal so I will be round to visit you as soon as I can.

Thankfully this wasn't our mode of transport home, lol, but another sample card for Stamposaurus. I coloured the narrow boat with Copics and made the banners with strips of papers which would otherwise have been binned.

Challenges
Without Words Spots and/or stripes
Bizzy Becs Anything Goes 
Heck of a Challenge New (new stamp) 
One Crazy Stamper Anything Goes

I hope you have entered my candy (post above), finishes in a few days.
