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!

Penny Black Giveaway



There is also a blog hop for more chance to win some lovely stamps!

Dog of the Week

This week we are showcasing the lovely Sarah!


Sarah is a lady who has been in an RGT placement for 3 years - she was reserved at one time but the folks did not come back to us and sadly Sarah is still waiting for a home - she has a very loving nature and travels well.

Sarah has only had 29 races and last raced on the 6th May 2010 - she has not been tested with domestic dogs or cats

Please consider Sarah when you are looking at the boys and girls available for adoption - she always seems to be passed by and has been waiting so long for a loving comfortable home.

Do you know anyone who would be able to give this gorgeous girl a loving home?
If so please ask them to visit here

Another lovely boy for you!



Duckbill has never raced.  He would need to be the only dog in the home, as he is not too keen on other dogs, but he does enjoy the company of humans. 

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