The Workshop; Pancakes and the Wall!

It has been a great day in Ede today! This morning was Make and Takes and this afternoon was my Stampotique Screen Workshop.
Before I tell you more ... I should clear up a small matter regarding the handbag! Yes ... I used artistic licence when describing the graveness of the whole bag incident and now feel compelled to clarify that ... well ... okay ... is was n't really ten karats of diamond that Anneliese destroyed ... or ... erm ... actually ... erm ... the bag at all ... it was a £4.99 hand bag charm that I had added to the strap and the Fossil bag is indeed in tact! But if you are reading this Lin ... another trip to the Fossil shop sounds like a plan regardless :0)
Okay ... onward and upwards as they say ... the workshop went very well ... a really great group of ladies ... I had a fab time and everyone finished and were very happy with their projects!
We distress stained ... sprayed and Perfect Pearled happily  and by closing time I was even feeling brave enough to tackle the wall! Thank you for your fabulous suggestions... I ended up going with my own ... yours were definitely  better ... but using my own words seemed more appropriate in the end!
Once everything was tidied away we set out for Pancakes ... oh my goodness ... I have one word ... Yummy! We are talking proper pancakes ... the size of a small dining table ... I had Peaches and it took me every last ounce of effort to eat it all ... but eat it all I did!
Next it was off to the town centre to sit outside some lovely little bars to chill and chatter and generally unwind!
So that is all for now folks ... we are off out in the morning to do the whole tour with Lia and Joan ... I will hopefully be back with piccies tomorrow night ... but if not ... I will see you first thing Monday with the new theme for Simon Says Stamp ...
Laters!

Those pancakes looks so - edible!! Making me hungry, will have to go and see what's hanging around for breakfast - won't be that good though.. Talking of hangings, your hanging for the wall - and your worn lipstick kisses comment - are perfect!
