Love From Lethargic, Dartford.

The last couple weeks have been horrendous! I have no energy & just can't be bothered to do anything. And I do mean anything! Getting up in the morning is about all I can manage & for anything else I have to force myself to get going. Do you have times like that?
Today, I have updated the Pen Pals blog - it has taken all day & largely all I had to do was cut & paste the information from a couple of e-mails ... what's that about?
You think I've blogged a bit lately? Yup! gotta love scheduled posting - but I'm almost out of those now, so if I don't get my act together soon it could be quiet for a li'l while.
OK, I'm almost done whining now.
Check out the Pen Pals blog for our latest challenge ... & maybe take part to cheer me up?

It's lunch time, I'm exhausted, back to bed methinks!

Is This Noteworthy?

I guess it is quite appropriate to have used Making Memories Noteworthy for this page. It is my first DT layout for Deanne Burton's Layout Sketch Design Team. & in true 'Crafty Moments' style, it also doubles for my Pen Pals Challenge layout this week ... to use numbers as the focus of your journaling. If you want to read the journaling, you'll have to check it out at Pen Pals.
We'd love to have some new visitors ... & some more entries to the fortnightly challenges, so do please feel free to pop on over - there's tons of inspiration each week as we publish all the entries that we receive (we will remove them if necessary, should they later be accepted for publication!) - so it's a good bit of exposure for your work too! & if its our favourite, you could also be chosen as our next Pen Pal Of The Week & have your own guest spot alongside me & Colette! Go on! You know you want to! LOL

Am I A Scrap Addict?

Evidently Deanne Burton thinks so!! I have just joined the Layout Sketch DT over on Deanne's fabulous blog ... Along with a few other names you might know! Go check it all out ... but first, just have a look at that cool blinkie over on the right column ... cool huh?
So, the deal is I'll be designing a cool layout for Deanne on the 1st & 15th of the month using one of her fab sketches ... & you can join in too - just link her up in the comments section when you've done yours ... so fun!
And don't forget the Pen Pals Challenges - you still have a few days to join in challenge #1 & grab a cool prize ... and join us in the coveted 'Pen Pal of the Week' spot.
I'm also sticking with Di Hickman's card sketch team ... even if she tries to shake me off ... I ain't goin' nowhere! LOL.
I haven't forgotten about the outstanding 40 days prizes ... struggling a bit to get straight at the mo - I feel another catch up post coming soon! LOL

Possibly The Worst Blogger In The World!

Yeah! I know I'm days behind again ... bear with me tho' ... today is going to be another huge catch-up blogging day!
So basically:
If you have entered a challenge & haven't seen your project posted on either Blog 'Til You Drop or Pen Pals Challenge Blog ... I'm doing it, I promise - hopefully today.
If you are waiting for the results of a previous draw from the 40 days event either on this blog or Blog 'Til You Drop ... I'll be announcing all those, definitely today.
If you are looking for the most recent days challenges (August 3rd - 5th) they are all coming, definitely today!
If you just want to know what I'm playing at, being totally unreliable etc ... watch out for the next post - I can explain! LOL

Day #33 - 40 Days Event

Here's a bit of a peek at my first layout for the new Pen Pals Challenge Blog, who are also today's 40 Days Event organisers (yeah! Ok, it's me & Colette really! LOL). You'll have to pop over to pen pals for the full layout, deets of the challenge & fabulous prize but for those that want supply lists etc (with handy links to my webstore for those in the UK ;o) )... here ya go!
Supplies: Papers: Cloud 9 Design (Sunrise Smoothie); Flowers, velvet trim: Making Memories; Orange Ribbon: American Crafts; Buttons from my stash.

Have You Found It Yet???

Our brand new challenge blog went live today ... & I'm soooooooo excited about it! By 'our' I mean mine & Colette's. Looooove working with Colette, so when Stella announced she was closing the Journaling Junkie blog I kinda thought we could do better ourselves! So a bit of arm twisting (it was more 'you know you're gonna say yes ... so let's just do it!' LOL) & I managed to persuade (bully/tempt ... whatever!) Colette that she just had to join me on a crazy journey when we both already have so much going on! LOL.
So that was it ... Pen Pals was born. The first challenge goes live on Friday but you can have a li'l nosey around right now ... & don't forget to leave a comment ... you never know when there could be a li'l comments RAK coming ... cuz that's the kinda gals we are!
