Brilliant get together

What a fantastic day we had yesterday. Seven of us met up for a crafting day hosted by our friend Pauline and her long suffering hubby Rob who ket us supplied with tea/coffee all day.
The lovely Rob had placed a box strategically just inside the door for us to place our chocolate offerings in :o)
We all converged on Derby from such farflung places as Liverpool, Macclesfield and Chapel en le Frith. We were feasted and entertained right royally and many thanks go to our hosts who excelled themselves.
These are the four cards I managed to make in the ten & a half hours I was there. We all raided each others stamps and stash and the lovely Viv allowed me to try her Pro Markers. I enjoyed using them but will stick with my Copics :o)



During the day we all piled into two cars and paid a visit to our local craft shop where I bought the Bee Happy stamp. It looked like a bus load had arrived when we invaded but we all enjoyed a bit of retail therapy and I am sure we managed to help boost profits for them :o)
