Penny Black Saturday Challenge 97




Hi All

I Didn`t get round to do the Challenge last week as i went to Ally Pally with four friends we had a Ball ..we stayed at the Travelodge at Kings Cross a really good price..
It was lovely to meet up with some Blogging Buddies some i had met and some i hadn`t ..the Lovely Talented Bev Whos cards are Soooo Amazing ..Julie Hickey another bundle of talent ...we all made for Craft Work cards first and we all spent some serious money...picked up lots of ideas from Julie... Met Sonia...Caz...Marlene and Jacquie who is on the Design Team for P.B....All these Crafters have given me soooo much inspiration...Thanks Girlies...
We also went to the West End to see Legally Blonde..Fabulous Show...so glad it was last week cos with the Flight situation it would have been disasterous for Victoria and I....i had better stop waffling and get on ..
