Name Badge For Art Party Weekend

I've set a challenge for the Art Party Weekend (last weekend of my 3 week visit to USA!), make a name badge, out of anything and I'm offering a prize for the one I like the most, I've finished mine, it will make it so much easier to get names right with 16 of us!

Charcuterie Platter @ Marks & Spencers

Loads of calories (700), with the bread, was it worth it - heck yes! Got to spend time with my DD and I'll be careful for the rest of the day!

Cool Dude!

Cabbage Roses Fabric made into a Fabric Pen Roll for Tracey, hope she likes it - this will be delivered in person on my USA trip! There's a matching Fabric Art Journal as well which might be travelling alongside this!

Fabric Pen Roll - Production Starts

 Although I said I'd start making these when I got back from my USA trip, so many people have expressed an interest that I thought I'd take the opportunity to make them and take them to the USA with me and post over there. Shelly wanted one to match her fabric AJ, remember this one?

I Am Determined

My healthy calorie counted Poached Salmon lunch - 300 calories of lush, meant that I didn't eat junk food in Sainsbury's Cafe and it was cheaper!

Today Was A NO GO Day

Sadly today was wiped out by a migraine that arrived from nowhere (1st one in 4 years) and laid me low for 8 hours solid, thankfully it responded to drugs and lying in a dark room with eye shades on, sadly it meant that NOTHING was done at all from a productive pint of view, here's hoping tomorrow is better x
