The craft room clearance continues with today’s special giveaway.
Many thanks again to everyone that has taken part in these so far. I really enjoyed reading your comments and will take some time out soon to respond.
The stash is depleting too!
Ok, on with the giveaway for this week.
This time, I have a Tonic Studios die to giveaway.
This week one lucky winner will bag themselves a Tonic Studios Verso handbag die.

Want it? Here is what you have to do.
Comment on this blog post below. Not on Facetwit or anywhere else, just here.
It can be anything. The comment itself doesn’t count for anything other than me being nosy so feel free to tell me what the weather is like where you are, what you are having for dinner, a funny story about the cat/dog or hamster, what you are making at the moment; basically, just pop a comment below so that I know you are interested and, next week I will draw a name at random from those that have commented and that person will get the item(s) featured above.
Terms
– One winner will be picked at random.
– Prizes can only be sent to a UK address.
– Prizes will be sent via a signed-for delivery service.
– No cash alternatives, because I spent all of my cash on the stuff that I am giving away.
– Only comments made on this blog post will count.
Oh, and hey, if you fancy sharing this post with some of your artsy-craftsy chums, that would also be very much appreciated.
Right, it’s time for me to get back to making stuff. Have a great day and I look forward to hearing what you have to say!
Bye for now.

What a gorgeous giveaway.
What I am up today? Well, I’m currently trying to tidy up my bedroom/craftroom, and be more organised by labelling eveything. Craftwise, I have just started to make my Christmas Cards, and I am in the middle of embroidering a ‘flower of the year’ redwork quilt kit. Weather is chilly and overcast here in Somerset, and lunch is jacket potato and baked beans. Have a great week. ☺ Serena ☺

Well John I had an operation 2 weeks ago on my ankle, so activity has been limited, not something that sits well with me. I have been reading and knitting but I am desperate to get paper crafting. I have a lapdog (no not the husband who has been amazing, looking after me and making sure I don’t do too much) so hope to get some colouring done soon. I am out for cake and a coffee with a friend today so that will be great to get out the house. I would love the lovely giveaway ready for when I get back in my craft room/spare bedroom. Best wishes Georgina

Finally I’ve been published! Yeah!! I confirmed my details via email and it works, told you it was me.
Had a good day yesterday, no appointments! So I lit the fire, finished my 1980’s style mohair sweater and watched Christmas films. Had a few teary moments which is silly because you know everything will turn out fine.
Cooked a roast chicken dinner with lots of veg and Yorkshire puddings. It was yummy even if I say so myself. No pudding as I was far too full
Saw John’s post this morning and thought I’d give it another go as I absolutely love this die. So here I am trying to get a post into the draw and have finally confirmed that I am me
Good luck everyone – soon be Christmas xx

Well like you done recently, I just moved house on Monday, I have a designated craft room which currently looks like a bomb site, so now the challenge begins. I’m afraid there’s no hand made cards this year but roll on next year

What a fantastic prize.
I’m currently working hard on my craft room on Christmas cards and gift boxes, and birthday cards, anniversary cards, and anything else I can think of that might sell on my first craft stall in just over 2 weeks time! I’m going to be raising funds for the rescue centre where we got our Greyhound girl from. We’ve had her just over two years now and she’s made a massive difference to my life, giving me more confidence to go out, with my limited vision. 💕

A great giveaway John, we have been busy decorating so haven’t been able to craft much lately but must start today because I need to make two 70th birthday cards for my bestie & her husband as well as my Christmas cards. Thinking I will only have time for family cards this year & buy the rest. Hope you have a great day crafting Sylv
