PAPERTAKE WEEKLY - ANYTHING GOES

CCC DIGI CREATIONS - ANYTHING GOES

CRAFTS GALORE ENCORE CHALLENGE - USE A STAMP OR DIGI ON YOUR PROJECT

Thank you for leaving me comments about the Blogger problem that I think was Google as I managed to finish my bit of commenting by way of Microsoft Edge, I will try to resume my visiting today but I still haven't got rid of my cold and cough which is now causing me a few problems I am going to try and get a telephone appointment with a doctor so I can get some anti-biotics. It takes about 3/4 weeks to make an appointment to visit the surgery so I hope the phone will be the way to go.

I hope that you will come join our challenge this week, if you would like some more inspiration please do take time to visit the other DT their work is awesome.

Apologies

Hi my dear friends and visitors, I am afraid I am unable to leave comments on any blogs at the moment for some reason the 'robot' thingy has come to life and is stopping me publishing my comment, I am also getting images when I do click the 'I am not a robot' box not sure if it is Google or something else but I will keep trying so please bear with me. xx
