Please sponsor us!


Day 58/365, originally uploaded by Fearful Penguin.

On 10th May, Erica and Emily will be striding out to help people affected by cancer. We will be doing the Shipley Stride sponsored walk in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

Macmillan Cancer Support provide practical, medical, emotional and financial support to those affected by cancer, and their families. They also push for better cancer care. They make a real difference to the lives of people affected by cancer and I want to help to make sure they continue to do so.

We would be grateful for any donations, large or small, so if you can afford to give anything at all, please do, to help Macmillan carry on their vital work.

Just Add Water


Well, I have to admit, I've been suffering from "artist's block" recently - I just haven't had the inspiration or the motivation to create. I was like this bath ballistic when it was sat on the side, just waiting. Once I but the bath ballistic into the water, however, it came alive, fizzing and turning and bubbling away.

A friend of mine has asked me to design and make the invitations for her wedding - we discussed a few ideas and all of a sudden it is like I have been put into the water - I can't wait to get started! I have spent time together looking through various ideas online, and I'm looking forward to going craft shopping on Monday to get the items needs to put together a few samples.

So now I have the motivation, the inspiration just followed naturally. I love it when that happens!
