I'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who who sent lovely emails and comments on Facebook about yesterday's Create and Craft show, it is very much appreciated! There is a lot of hard work that goes into a show even if it's only on screen for an hour, and it means a lot to me that there are so many people still enjoying the shows and a lot of new people still discovering us. Welcome to all the newbies who have found us lately I hope you like us and stick with us.
Some of you may have noticed the orange glow that I seemed to be emitting yesterday, don't adjust your TV, it was the result of a fake tan fiasco! When I've watched the shows back in the past I'm always aware of how pale and pasty my face looks, since I was on with Dawn who always looks lovely and brown I thought I'd try and make myself look as if I'd had time to enjoy a little of the bank holiday sunshine, rather than squirrelling away in my craft room. The result? - a rather vivid shade of orange which no amount of scrubbing would remove!! My hands looked as if I'd been Tango'd and after ten minutes of attention with bleach and a scouring pad it was obvious that they were going to stay that way! Oh well at least I can laugh at myself and please be assured normal service will be resumed for next time, no more experimenting with fake tan for me. I am after all plenty old enough to know better.
The show went well I think, and I actually managed to enjoy it this time, although as usual we were pushed for time and didn't get as many demos in as I would have liked. How does Ali Reeve do it? Four or five demos in one show just seems to be beyond me! Still the ones that I managed to do didm't seem to have any of my now legendary mistakes, I didn't drop a stamp or glue card to Dawn's arm this time thank goodness. Perhaps one day I will actully mange to be the consummate professional that I'm supposed to be. Oh well until then I'll struggle on and hope that you lot come with me and continue to enjoy your stamping as much as I do.
