WOYWW 228

Hi all, yep it's Wednesday just lol which means it's time for all of us crafters to share our desk over at WOYWW.  I'm late again this evening, it's been an hectic week with work and other bits and bobs.  Also it's been an upsetting week with my nephews Dad who died from his battle with cancer yesterday :-(.  My sister and I are really close and even though she was divorced and is with a new partner obviously it's still been upsetting for all of us.  He lived in Ireland and the lads knew he had cancer but he never wanted to bother them so said everything was great except last week they got a call to say go over as he was really poorly.  They said what they needed to say and spent some time with him, then sorted everything out that their dad wanted them to do, came back on Saturday, and yesterday they got the call that he had died.  My nephews are Simon 35, Daryll 26 and Sean 17, they go back tomorrow with my sister for the funeral on Friday.  I feel so devastated for them all especially Simon as he is working in China and couldn't get back in time, how sad. He did manage to speak with his dad over skype but yesterday Vicky said that Simon was gutted, he couldn't speak to anyone, it must have been the hardest thing for my sister to do and she can't go and hug him, my heart really goes out to him.  I lost my dad when I was 5, and even though I was young I can remember everything, especially the day of the funeral as mum thought it was best to go so left me with friends at the hotel where the wake was going to be, I still remember that.
So anyway I am truly sorry I haven't had time to visit many people this week but will hopefully get around you over the next few days :-)

The card is for the GD post tomorrow over at C.R.A.F.T challenge

(hence why it's turned over lol!!!!)

as I am guest designer for the month. Working

with digis has been challenging lol, but this one I enjoyed as I

I haven't done many in awhile and I relaxed on the sofa and coloured in with

my promarkers.  I am still a inky painty girl lol but I definitely

think they might be the odd coloured image keep popping up especially

christmas ones lol.

I just managed to blog this as  I had to make some changes as the challenge was called think pink, but we had an email to say we can't use it as it's a trade name which is copyrighted.  I had made a pink ribbon out of clay and stamped into it but I have had to remove it as we think if it's not bought we might not be able to use it.  We are waiting to find out but I took it off anyway.  Lisa at the shop had been doing fund-raising hence why we picked the challenge, but I guess I understand why we haven't been able to use it, they were nice 

and sent a nice email explaining.  I found this hard to do as obviously with 

family being very close to cancer but also a work mate is off work having

chemo for breast cancer and my personal assistant at work fought it and won

a couple of years ago.

As you can see not much else has changed on here :-)

Yes I thought I would take a picture of bits to sort, my poor

stencils/masks have no place to live at the moment, I use them loads

so trying to find somewhere near my desk to home them, but sorting has

stopped for the moment.  Plus all my 12by12 christmas paper and other bits.

Need to sort out my crimbo bits so I can get on with using them lol

I am determined this year to not buy crimbo cards and definitely

be more prepared :-)

This is where I have been putting bits that so need to be found

a home as well on some wall etc.

EEK better go and link as it's a minute to Thursday!!!! Shall be back in morning with another post.
Hope you have a fantastic week, and hope all is well with you and your families.
Lots of Hugs :-)
Happy Woyww
