Welcome to my blog!

From x stitch I moved into card making - now I am playing around with mixed media! I am taking part in different workshops and with help from crafty pals, learning about different mediums and techniques. Hope you feel inspired to create after a visit to my blog - Happy Crafting!

Dog of the Week

This gorgeous boy is Bouncer!!


Bouncer is a boy who does not live up to his name - he is not "bouncy" at all - he comes across as a little shy when you first meet him but this soon disappears

At present Bouncer is still racing but should a loving home come along he is happy to hang up his racing shoes and take up the offer of a home - he is clean within the Kennels

Bouncer has not been tested with domestic dogs or cats


If you think that you can offer this very special boy  the home he is looking for please contact
