Pt 2 landing in America...

Friday the 13th sees me in Carson, California, helping to set up the Stampers Anonymous booth ready for a show. Despite going head over heels, narrowly avoiding breaking every bone, but ending up with a 4in black bruise on my bottom, I soldiered bravely on!!!

What's taking up all the space in the car park...?? he he it's only Ted's RV and trailer.!!!

Saturday was a blast, with non stop demos all day long.

Mr Ted likes to keep it low key.!!

Thanks to everyone who made the trip to see me.

First up we had a fabulous workshop preview and open day.

Sunday saw me teaching a canvas workshop to a group of round robin art journallers who were meeting for the first time to swap their journals.
We did a large canvas and the results were fabulous

A heartfelt plea...

to all wonderful pushers of wheelchairs in airports. Although I am so grateful and can't thank you enough as I would never have made it without you....if you don't look and continue to repeatedly push my bad foot into doors, people, lifts and other peoples luggage, please don't look offended when I scream.!!
Just saying!!!

Enjoy xx
