Of course, when I did get back in form, the amount of neglected chores were a liitle overwhelming i.e. housework - ironing - kids - work - which I'm glad to say that I have now also caught up with, so now Im left with catching up with my blog, some dt work and also co-ordinating the Particraft stand at the Big Stamp & Scrapbook Show at Ally Pally on 18/19 April '09! - I do hope that some of you will get chance to come along and say hi, as it would be great to meet you in person - but I will post about this again nearer the time.
I do have a quick project to show you, which uses one of the new stamp plates from Particraft, which I will also be running a demo/m+t workshop at Ally Pally. It is a 'ladies' unmounted A5 plate and this particular lady is my favourite! I have added my paper rose to it too - and thank you all so much for the wonderful comments that you left me about my tutorial - I'll be sure to get some more together for you shortly - but first let me get Ally Pally out the way!
And just on a final note.......An Award!, I just wanted to share this award with you that was given to me by Cardmaking Galore, it was such a pleasant surprise - It is so great to know that you like to read my blog and that it inspires you. This fab award is given to blogs which:

Hi Maria
Many thanks for my mention. I hope I make people laugh...my life is quite funny!
I love the ladies plate card, so sophisticated. Definately going to order the stamps when I get back. Good luck at Ally Pally, wish I was able to be there. Glad to hear you're feeling better now. Take care.
Hi Maria,
So glad you're feeling better, really sorry to hear you've been poorly. I love this "ladies" plate - such good value when you think what the individual stamps cost - and this is an amazing card you've made with it!
Congratulations on the award, and thanks for passing it on to us, too. Lovely to get it; we'll be posting it on our blog later..

Oh wow!!! I love this card! I have yet to try making cards, but when I see this, it really inspires me to give it a try! Simply elegant and beautiful work! I am a fan of your art.

The card is beautiful and more even the rose.
It is very sensual!
