And now below (because I made a pickle of the original post - thanks Annie for alerting me to it - here is a news cutting especially for Shaz (Silverwolf).
Whilst I was away in America I received a note to say that I had won Nikki's Pink collection. Unsure where to send it she decided it would probably be best to send it to the UK and it was waiting for me on my arrival home. Sorry I did not upload last week but here it is now:
Imagine the delight on my face when I opened this package and found all of this inside for me. The little envelope on the left is full of all manner of dewdrops, beads etc. A veritable Valentine Treat. Thank you so much Nikki.
Rightio, so now you have seen what is on my desk for this week, why not go to see what Julia has in store and follow some of the links for interest and ideas.

Well at least you managed something paper craft last week I did nothing at all. Guess that happens every once in a while. So happy the candy made it to you safely and may you be able to use it all happy WOYWW hugs Nikki? ?

OOh lucky you with all these scrummy pink goodies! I love that stamp too.Made lots of cards. They always come up nicely don't they?

What a lovely parcel of snail mail, better than electric and gas bills any day.
Take care of yourself Neet, don't be overdoing it.

I had to highlight the bit about Shaz and her lights cos I think you've typed it white on a white background :-)....but I managed it.
Lucky you winning that fab new stash.
Here's hoping you have a good week.
Hugs,

I'm not worried about the lack of crafting mojo, you can't force it...or rather, if you do, then things never seem to go well. The urge will strike again one day, lol!
Wow, that's a lovely parcel from Nikki....I bet that made you smile :-)
Hugs, LLJ 9 xx

Lucky you to win that pink stash!
Although it was meant for Shaz, I read the article with interest. I learnt something there. Beautiful coloured sky.
I'm sure your mojo will come back. We all have days like that. (especially in winter I must say)
Thanks for visiting,
Happy WOYWW and have a good week,
Lisca
I just love those Julie Nutting dolls.Vicky#7
Lovely stash package you have there, maybe that will give you some incentive to craft.

Beautiful card! I love purple.
Congrats on the stash win - I won one of Nikki's pink packages too. It was great to get good post instead of bills lol. Have fun - hope your mojo comes back.

Nice win! I'm sure you will have fun with lovely pile! The card is cute - when I was in at school none of my people had faces, just like this card - I think they were just too difficult to draw! Lindart #56
Beautiful package from Nikki! She's so generous - love those postage stamps too! I can understand if you don't want to sit at your desk when it makes you feel uncomfortable. Hope your leg gets better soon. Lovely card for your friend, very feminine! Wishing you a great rest of the week! Thanks for stopping by earlier! zsuzsa #40
Lovely card, congrats on the stash win! I love the lift it gives you winning something don't you? Happy crafting, Max #60
Hi Neet, that article is great, thank you. It was amazing to see, ours were not that widespread, just three small patches, but an incredible sight, no the less. We were just really lucky the skies were relatively cloudless for a couple of days. Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #6 xxx
that photo on the newspaper article looks so fantastic :) oooh looks like some seriously happy mail has reached you :) ~Stacy #59
Hope your leg gets better and you feel
in the right mood for being creative.
I´m sure your card will be lovely and the
package is wonderful.
Happy WOYWW!

Hi Neet, love the card. I think you should just rest up and forget about your desk for a while. If you try and force yourself to do something when you're not in the mood Mr Mojo will hide away for even longer. Hope the leg is getting better as that can't help. Take care, thanks for the visit to mine and happy woyww, Angela x 26
Cool card! Fab prize you won too, well done and I hope your leg improves soon! Take care! xxx
Wow what a stunning pink stash :D Love your card, sorry you've not been feeling up to crafting with your leg :( Hope you can feel back in the mood soon. P xx
I would have liked to have seen those 'mother of pearl' clouds, Neet, but it was too cloudy and, thanks to the storm, too horrible to venture outside. Hope you get your mojo back - maybe that fabulous package of goodies will provide a spark. We have another change of weather again today - it's chilly but sunny ... only in Scotland!!! I'll be starting the next giant granny square this evening - this one will be for my lovely niece. Have a great week. Hugs, Elizabeth x #41
Lovely stash you have won, Neet! It's always a joy to open a parcel of goodies, isn't it. That sky is amazing. I've never seen anything like that. I know what it's like in the absence of your creative mojo - it's horrible! I do hope your leg gets better soon.
Thank you for your lovely comment - yes, my hubby's a real star. Thanks for your suggestions re names - he's definitely a boy panda. Whenever we get new bears or anything, I can always tel istantly whether they are boys or girls lol!! The name Val did spring to my mind but the little panda just looked at me as if to say "That's not my name!" He remains nameless for now! I am sure something will come eventually. This evening he had some liposuction and is a lot less firm and hard now, and more cuddly! So glad you like my cards. I'm taking them in to the chemo unit tomorrow, along with the cakes I made.
Happy belated WOYWW,

Happy belated WOYWW Neet !
Thank you for your lovely comment on my latest post, Neet, and I adore "kitten mitten" - must tell my hubby that one in the morning! Beatrice has hardly stirred from it since she got it - just for food, and the odd trip into the garden lol! She adores it. I had a great time at the chemo unit this a.m. and the buns were gratefully received, and I had some lovely conversations with several people. It's such a joy to go in and try to bring a little sunshine into people's lives when they are going through such unpleasantness. My poor little panda - two operations in as many days lol! He's now a lot better and more cuddly after his liposuction!

Such a cute card Neet! AND your little stash win has left you perfectly in the pink! x
