My NEC stash and guess who I met!

Hi everyone, yes boring it may be but this is what I got at the NEC this year. It is the only time I get to see my bestest ever crafting buddy Dawn AKA Crafty Kitten. We had a great laugh and did a couple of make and takes. I now know how to make earings - it's a lot easier than I expected. Also we tried out some sewing on cards using metallic thread and gems. Of course we spent a bit too but it is so worth the trip - getting up at 5am to catch the train etc.

We also met one of my favoutite Create and Craft presenters - Dean Wilson

 

This is the one Dawn has on her blog - he is making a funny pose because he thought she was pointing the camera down!!!

 

But here is a piccie of me with Dean - now I don't do photos so you won't see many pictures of me! It had to be done though LOL.

 

 

Thank you Dawn for a fabulous day - I just wish we didn't live so far away from each other.

 

Hugs to you all
