I haven't been joining in for a while because my camera got juiced !! by my seven year old with orange juice but its dried out and seems to be working now . ( thank goodness !!)
So hence i have alot to show you ! Also yesterday i was very lucky to be invited to a free Christmas craft day in Ludlow . It was such a great day and we had a gorgeous free lunch too !
while I'm here for those who haven't been by my blog in a while check out Thursday thoughts , on Thursdays i ask you to join in with a post about something that has inspired you that week.
