The Annual International Craft Fair , NEC Birmingham

I find it hard to believe it's only a week since I went the NEC Craft Fair! Seems ages ago!

Sadly I could barely move in there, let alone take pictures but pleased I caught a snippet of the Prima line featurig some of Donna Downey's art. All very pretty of course!

I was however surprised 7Gypsies items were faintly there, but I also felt so little in this big big place full of artistic goodies!
Not to mention the Cake Fair!
But I'd better let the pictures speak for themselves!

It's looking good!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today it is indeed looking good for two reasons:
I'm very proud of my 4th album for the spring line, done in 2 evenings and with a soft vintage air, but counteracted by a fresh young colour contrast!

Needs embellishing inside but pretty even without! Here it is:

But even more proud, actually ecstatic with this:

I came back from work today, opened the door checked out the post and guess what was inside?! My 6 years' worth-of-waiting - QTS! Wow! I'll make a confession: I screamed and jumped with joy when I saw it! Such a masive achievement! Hope fully will be put to a good use in the future as that makes me a fully qualified teacher here! Once a T, always a T! Can't get away from it, that voice inside tells me that! :)

Passionate about my growing craft plans

So happy I have a plan for spring! I am thinking bigger: the words are EXHIBIT - JOURNAL JOURNEY - 7TH MARCH! i SHALL BE BOOKING A STALL to display my journals at a craft event next spring! I'm soooooo excited! My stall look ideas are growing every day! And my journal making inspiration likewise! I'm so much more productive all of a sudden!

Here's my first few items I made for this event:
