Drastic Measures

Morning folks....yes I am still mojo-less... even my visit to Simply Create on Friday didn't work....but I did have a lovely morning sharing coffee cake and lots of chit chat with my lovely buddies...Jacqui and Anne and came home considerably cheerier but hey Mr Mojo was still nowhere to be found.   So I gave up and was intending spending the weekend just chilling out watching the tennis.....until I very nearly choked on my Sunday morning treat... 2 boiled eggs and soldiers whilst catching up on the latest world news in the Sunday papers.....a little insight into the exciting life I lead.   Anyway the latest thing from those fools at the EU....apparently no two eggs are the same size or weight ....well there's a surprise and to sort out this rather worrying problem they have decided that eggs will no longer be sold in cartons of 12 but by weight....well I'm sure that this will come as a mighty relief to us all....no more sleepless nights over the size of your breakfast egg or indeed the weight of the 2 eggs you need for your Victoria Sponge...what planet do these people live on...surely there are more far more pressing issues in the world ....but oh no these faceless twits are sitting in an office somewhere trying to justify their massive salaries by coming up with these hare brained ideas of making the world a better place by picking on the humble egg...makes me wonder if these are the folks who got us in the mess we are in in the first place.  
As I haven't done much crafting for about a week  there is a distinct lack of things to show you so I am going to bore you all with some of the cards I made for my demo day at Simply Create with some gorgeous sewing themed stamps from Hero Arts.






and if you haven't paid a visit to Simply Create recently.....wow you are missing out....lots of new goodies on the shelves including brand new collections from Bo Bunny which are yummy and a little birdie tells me another delivery of Hero Arts will be arriving this week.
But it's time for desperate measures....the box I shared on "What's on My Workdesk Wednesday" is sitting exactly where I left it.... still as naked as the day it was born and samples need to be worked on for a demo day I am doing in August with a lovely group of crafty ladies in Huntly.....so in an effort to get me scuttling back to the cubbyhole and kick start the crafty process I am off to vent my frustration in the kitchen....steam cleaner at the ready....hopefully just the thought of cleaning the oven will do the trick.  If not perhaps I should  threaten to stick Mr Mojo's head in the oven.....wonder if he knows we don't have gas.
And that's Wimbledon over for another year...not the most exciting of Men's Finals but well done to Rafa....he is such an awesome athlete...a nice humble guy who doesn't live the celebrity lifestyle....a great role model for kids and a wonderful ambassador for sport unlike some other so called sportsmen...and as Murray and Berdyche found to their cost he has that hunger to win and a killer forehand.
And tune into Create & Craft today at 10.00am when Anice from Funky Hand will be launching her brand new CD.....Colour Me Happy and see all the gorgeous samples from my lovely Funky Hand teamies

Catch up with you all later
