Rainy Days and Mondays!

SSS10811 Well ... Did n't I say last week that I was going to blog everyday in November? Did n't I say that? And have I just managed 8 days on the trot for the first time in ... erm ... like ages ... Oh yes people ... we are on a roll!

The new challenge that has just been set over at The Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog this week (at least I hope it has ... or I have pushed the wrong buttons) is "Your Favourite Lord Tim of Holtz Stamp". You know Tim ... the man that can transform a bit of old wood into a solid gold nugget while entertaining small and needy children with just a Bedazzle bead and a 3d foam pad.

My favourite Lord Tim stamp is indeed the rain man ... not his proper title you understand ... but the one with which I like to address him :0) I have gone a bit Steampunk agaSSS30811in ... mainly because John ... who never gets excited by the stuff I make ... actually got all excited by my last Steampunk attempt ... even uttered words like Jules, Gabriel and Verne ... so I reckon this may just get put to one side for the next time he celebrates something or indeed I just feel like sending him a card!!!

Righty ho then ... do join in with the challenge this week if you get chance ... there is another fabulous prize donated by Simon Says Stamp ... and who knows ... it may be your lucky week!
