<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I love a stepper card.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here is one I designed for my Coastal Crafters group and it so nearly went right 😁</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">In hindsight asking newbie crafters to attempt it might have been a tad optimistic but I was keen that they had more of a challenge than a straightforward fold and layers card.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Now I usually follow the same formula for a stepper card.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">1. Get the card blank.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">2. Slice it along the middle to whatever widths I fancy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">3. On the step side I valley fold smaller than the front piece. 4. Then mountain fold by manhandling it into place 😋</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So for the class I spent time scribing the exact measurements and steps and making a note of it all and writing the instructions. Some still didn't quite work in the class and had to be manhandled 😊 I don't quite know why!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Anyway here is a link to a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97jNclq4BYU" target="_blank">good tutorial on YouTube</a> if you want more information on these great cards.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here are the written instructions.</span></div>
<ol>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Use the 5.75x5.75” card clank that has been pre-cut. If you are starting from scratch at home you need to mark 2”x2” point on one side of the card and at the opposite length side you need to make a 2”x2” mark. Then cut between (this will be too difficult with scissors but if you don’t have a trimmer you could use a knife and a metal ruler, but of course be careful!).</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">We have pre-scored the first line at the font of the card at 2” point. This is to make the first mountain fold.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Then use the trimmer and the light grey score tool to score at the next mark at 1</span><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; font-size: 12.7px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;"><sup>5/8</sup></span><span style="font-kerning: none;">” and again at 2</span><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; font-size: 12.7px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;"><sup>6/8</sup></span><span style="font-kerning: none;">” from the original score mark.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Now fold the card on those score lines, the first one at the front we know is a mountain fold and then the next one is a valley fold and the next one is a mountain fold again. This should be done gently to ease into place and then you can ‘square’ the card up at the bottom folds to make sure it will stand up and once you are happy then you can go in and bone fold each crease.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Cut your large piece carefully into shape following the template shown in class. You can then use the off cut to mount on your ‘step’ piece of the card. Up to you if you use the same side of the pp to give you a ‘shadow’ or the B side which will give you a contrast.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Adhere your pieces down using wet glue, not too little that it wont stick but not too much that it distorts the pp. With wet glue it gives you a bit or ‘wriggle room’ to move the pp round, about 5-10 seconds.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Adhere pop dots to the rear of your pre-made topper from your embellishment kit and place where you want on the card. the bottom will probably work best and then use the die-cut leaves from your embellie kit too. Place them underneath the topper and arrange how you like it. Then glue the leaves down using wet glue. Remove the pop dots paper to reveal the glue and place over.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Add the snowflakes to the top of the step, either onto another small piece of one of your offcuts or straight onto the top of the step of the card.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "American Typewriter"; font-size: 19px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Embellish with sequins if so wished and also you can use your new stickies if you like. (Beware they do take a few hours to dry so if you use them in class don’t smudge them!)</span></li>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have recently started teaching/coaching crafting classes in my town as I haven't been able to find any scrapbooking crops nearer than an hour and a half away which just isn't doable for me most of the time. So I am trying to grow my own :-) It has been fab to meet new people and spend more time with new friends I met at my weight watchers class that have come to the crafting classes. So hello Coastal Crafters; Angela, Sarah, Sue, Lesley and Mel if you are reading :-)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">For years I have dreamed of starting my own crop, having attended online crops and then in real life they have been such a nice thing to do, spending time with like minded people.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">However my nearest one is an hour and a half away and generally they are on saturdays. I work in retail so I wouldn't be able to go regularly. What I need is one locally so I need to start my own. I realised it would need to be classes as the guys will be new and won't have a stash.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Despite much encouragement and practical help from my online scrapbooking friends especially lovely <a href="http://miniowner.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Sue</a>, I still hadn't got round to it. Until something clicked this summer when a couple of new friends I met at weight watchers were interested in scrapbooking and so I went ahead and booked the local hall.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We have had two classes so far, making christmas cards and a christmas layout and in a couple of weeks we will be tackling a christmas minibook for the ladies to record their memories of the season this year.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Then after Christmas we will be going back to scrapbooking and doing a different technique each month with hopefully by the end of next year me being able to stop teaching and be able to crop together 😊</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Hi to Angela, Sarah, Sue, Lesley, Mel and thank you for starting with me 😍</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have also gone back to basics myself, watching YouTube tutorials and inspiration videos. Practicing basic techniques again. When was the last time I did distress ink blending? Years ago I imagine but I really enjoyed it of course.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Resurrecting the blog is also something I hope this will inspire. Now if only I could win the lottery and stop that time wasting activity called employment 😄</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I used a<a href="https://creativescrappers.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/the-cut-shoppe-guest-reveal.html" target="_blank"> sketch from Creative Scrappers to start me off (no 305) </a>and decided to swap out the stars for flowers and see where that took me. I love sewing on my layouts so I decided to do that first for the first layer of texture, I've put some of the photos and a couple bits of video of the steps together on a video to watch here: it's my first video like this, i've learned loads and would like to get good at it. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">After all the drama of yesterday I didn't get to sleep until midnight and was awake again by 5:30. I check in with work and it was fine. I get up and walk round the garden capturing some detail, I find it interesting each year about this time to see how far things are along in comparison to other years.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> I stay in bed with a coffee and add a couple more bits to my grocery order, watch The London Marathon build up and then snooze again before getting up and ready.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">We listen to BBC Radio 4's Reunion programme on the way It was about the Challenger Space Shuttle Disaster which was very good and very emotional.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The countryside looks so stunning, beautiful green patchwork fields with the odd field of bright yellow rape. Looming above us and getting nearer is Dartmoor. Devon is the one of the biggest counties in England and we are lucky enough to have these two stunning National Parks of Exmoor and Dartmoor, I live next to Exmoor so I always go there but I would love to know Dartmoor better too.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">We have a lovely chat before lunch with my Aunt and Uncle, I ask Uncle Brian for advice as I want to build a raised flower bed and he is one of the handiest people I know, he gave me some good advice and ideas.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It was a lovely lunch of chicken, roast potatoes and green veg and then cheesecake. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I help Auntie Pat out with a problem with her phone and then head back to home. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I realise when I get 10 minutes out that I took zero photos of Dartmoor up close and more importantly zero photos of the whole visit, including their wonderful garden! <i>S</i>o mad with myself.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I felt tense when I got there and there was a niggle that I knew I needed to address. I didn't want to do it right there and then as I wasn't in the best frame so I waited a few hours and discussed it with my colleague and we resolved it. A mentor a long time ago told me "worst first" and I have used that all through my working life to deal with tasks. However I have long since learned that whilst that is amazing advice for task it isn't necessarily so with employees. I take a deep breath and let it settle, get some context. If it still needs addressing then I use data-based feedback; when I see you do/say xy or z it makes me think and feel ab and c and what I would like you to do next time is... this method works well for me and my team know where they are with me. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I left the shop for a break during the morning to go to Marks & Spencer for a tee-shirt for Mum's holiday that she had decided on. I see a work top in there that would be perfect, comfortable, bland, durable, reasonable, I could get two and rotate, I miss wearing a uniform. I like dressing smartly sometimes but my job is often manual and so I need to be comfortable and not worrying about it getting damaged.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am glad to escape into the sunshine with my bag full of healthy goodies for my day off. I walk back over the bridge and head to the car park and then after wondering momentarily where I had parked the car, I realise that I had treated myself to a paid parking space the other end of town </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">😲</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> (where we park is free so we all park there most days). It </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">is nearer to my home town so cuts about 15 mins off my commute but it costs so it is a treat.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">My first word is a swear word, I did this once before years ago! Habit is a good thing most of the time but not today when it automatically takes my feet in the wrong direction! Anyway, after wondering whether I should just lay down on the floor and cry, I found a new podcast episode and plugged myself in and decided I would enjoy the walk! Which I did, although I was glad to get to the car, the shopping bag filled with goodies was getting a tad heavy 😁</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So my idea of a nice crafty evening is completely out of the window and I decide to go to bed. With that, work rings and tell me the CO2 gas alarm is going off and so I deal with that for a couple of hours by phone, thinking that I was going to have to go back in again. Fortunately I didn't, we sorted out a work round so I go to sleep in case I am needed in the morning. I hope not, as it is my day off and I have plans.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">What a day.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I cleaned the car today, I was shamed into it by the thought of it going to the garage as it needs some work. I actually spent a long time on it, I normally just wash off the dirt quickly or put it through the car wash at the garage, but as I got started it occurred to me that that is why it is called having your car detailed </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "segoe ui emoji";">😆</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I'm so astute, anyhow, I really looked at the detail of the car and it looks much better now. A passer by actually looked at me in disdain as I cleaned some of this 14 year old Honda with a toothbrush</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "segoe ui emoji";">🤓</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Man, I love the car, she has done us so proud and has been so reliable, we have got so many things carried in her considering her size, she isn't my choice of car though and I would dearly love an upgrade so that is a goal I am working towards.</span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I thought about details as I was doing it and that part of my intention this week was to get more detail today recorded for me to look back on, especially as I have quite a poor memory. I love Ali Edwards' idea of "tell me more". However I warn you now that this will, most likely, not be of interest to you lol</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have three homemade mochas today as my caffeine fix. I only started drinking coffee about 4 years ago regularly and only about 6 years ago at all. I remember trying it when I was young and hating it and never even trying it again until I was in my thirties, I am 43 now. I first drank black coffee and that was great but then I ran with the coffee craze that has swept the world, tried them all and fell in love with mochas. I can't afford either the calories or the cash to make takeaway options a habit, I remember having one from our local Caffe Nero and then going back straightaway for another and giving myself a big smack on the forehead. So I looked round for ideas, sachets were better but not much and although I do buy them now and again I came up with a different plan. A teaspoon of coffee and a teaspoon of Options hot chocolate powder and hot water; that gives me 4 cups a day for 2 weight watchers smart points which I can live with.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">As I make it I am so irritated as the small mocha making whisk is in the dishie and each time this happens I am irritated and it happens all the time. I <i>always</i> think, go get another whisk they are like tuppence-ha'penny, but I <i>always </i>forget.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">My Boots I have had forever, at least ten years I am pretty sure. They were quite expensive (to my view anyway lol) but they have now worked out at about £10 a year which is amazing as I wear them a lot. I realise as I type that I seem to be mentioning the cost of things a lot! I am a little fretful about money at the moment so it must be that 😬</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Anyway as I did them up this morning, the zipper got jammed on one, I literally took a shocked breath 😀 Once they were working again I got a photo as it might be their last hurrah (or last week in the life!). Goodbye my friends, you were well loved 😁</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I like to wear nice nails, and have done either continuously or more often than not, for about 15 years now, this was just as the craze was starting. I rarely wear colour varnish, just pale pink and beige shades but I just feel 100% better with them on. In fact as these have just gone on I have been hiding my nails from my own camera all week. Working manually some of the time means that they get easily damaged so sometimes now I go without when I know I have a patch of that to go through. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Fudge is our male dog. He is a grumpy old so and so but has mellowed in his older age. We have had him for nearly 13 years and he is like most pets a member of the family. Despite him being grumpy when he is out and about he is as soft as butter with the family. Alex and him have a special bond, Alex was just a sitting up baby when we got them (we have his sister Minty too) and from the get go he has tolerated Alex dragging him about, dressing him up (not unusual to see Fudge wandering in with deely-boppers or a hat on his head) cuddling him etc. Since last week in the life he has been diagnosed with diabetes and has to have two daily injections which, fair play to Alex, he has learned to do and does at least one jab most days. He suddenly went blind last Autumn and I was worried sick but he has absolutely made it work. He was quite obviously frightened to start with, but he just gets on with it, recently venturing upstairs and downstairs again, FOMO, I think 😃. He does cause a bit of amusement as you come across him in strange places just sitting and you wonder where he thinks he is. He loves his cuddles with his humans even more than he did before.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The rest of Thursday was chores and stuff and things. Topping up dinner money balance electronically, shopping for basic groceries and packed lunch things for Louis and I, mainly junk for him and healthier for me, getting the darned menu for next week finished, cleaning the bathroom (and admiring my bathroom plants which miraculously have made it to nearly a year old) and hoovering and wiping down through the house, Mum did the washing up to date, eating a lovely pasta dish for lunch and then just a sandwich for tea, sighing at Alex not getting his bag and shoes even near the cubby, watching the brothers play on the computer together, <i>working together </i>to unlock the next level, loving seeing Minty get settled on my discarded pillow instead of her bed, still liking my Harry Potter pj's, just stuff.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I work in retail and every three weeks we change our promotions which is, to say the least, a palaver; over the last year my fab team have honed it to perfection, we set up for it on a Tuesday during the day, then two of my team work overnight to make sure the change goes ahead with no disruption to our customers, they change the promotion space and change all our labels to make sure we trade legally and then I go in early to give them a good night cuddle, check it all off and do a clear up job in the warehouse. They did it perfectly and I was really pleased. And there was this on my not too shabby commute...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">A lie-in (a two coffee lie-in), planning and organising, catching up with Masterchef and checking in with Alex and Fudge who came to visit to discuss plans for the day. I decide we are going up to Exmoor but only as far as Wistlandpound Reservoir. I don't want us to be out all day as the boys need to tidy their room, I need to do chores and Alex has homework. I love days like this, some plans, some vagueness.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We all shower and get dressed and head out via Tesco to get the inevitable bread and milk. As I suspected it is busy at the reservoir but not so much that we are walking with others all the time. We mooch round, sometimes faster, sometimes slower, trying to see the little birds we hear singing in the trees, there isn't anything on the reservoir itself. Looks like the overwintering birds have gone and the summer birds haven't arrived which would make sense it being Spring </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "segoe ui emoji";"><span style="font-size: large;">🙄</span></span></div>

I was pleasantly surprised by how great the production values were and swooned at the landscapes, old castles, frocks and horses. Worth it for that alone, but a good yarn as well.</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "segoe ui emoji";"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "segoe ui emoji";">🏔🐴</span></span><br />

At Christmas they had an enormous Polar Bear and when I came round the corner at 5:30am to open up I nearly screamed in shock. 😳😆 </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Erm no that isn't baking. I am eating healthily at the moment and so I thought I hadn't baked anything but I did actually try a baked oats recipe which I knew really wasn't going to be for me as it included baked banana which I dislike. I was right and so I have carried on with either warmed oats or overnight oats. Which, if you haven't heard of, is as it sounds; oats, greek yoghurt and almond milk left overnight. You can then add to it, my favourite at the moment is to add a tablespoon of ground almonds to the oats and separately defrost some black cherries to pop in at the last moment, hello bakewell oats. ✅</span><br />

I could have used a few that came out better but I wanted to use this one as it was a tribute to and to raise funds in his memory for, a little boy Diesel that died suddenly of an aneurysm suddenly in his sleep just at the end of last term. It was undiagnosed so neither he nor his family knew about it so at least he lived his life right up until he went to sleep. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sooo, typing this at 23:12 on Bank Holiday Monday 29th August I guess this is my summer in a post. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It started with a manic amount of work, destructing the bathroom, digging the allotment out, spending a load of money to improve all these things, starting a new job (same position, new store) and investing a lot of time and emotion in so many things my head was pretty scrambled. I tried to make sure that the time I was at work was invested there and the time away from it was clear of it, concentrating on pushing forward on the home projects and any other time was devoted to sleep and rest. I had no energy left for creativity though so I really missed scrapping. I made a few layouts but nothing I loved or was interested in. So this week has been about getting back to that as it feels like therapy. I get a lovely feeling of well-being when I have sat crafting for a while.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">And paraphrasing Roald Dahl, If that wasn't nice, I don't know what is.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Despite being so tired on Friday evening and going to bed early, I didn't feel awesome on saturday morning. I knew I would be out all day so was trying to use a fuddled brain to pack everything that was needed. One piece of documentation I forgot to pack would be needed later...*sigh*</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I felt a bit scattered trying to get my thoughts together and the drive in through the valley was just the thing. Beautiful trees with their new leaves and the sun shining through them. Past the bluebell wood, the beautiful shining river. I listened to my audio book, chuckling, such great writing about such a familiar cast of characters.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i style="font-weight: bold;">I love </i>Louise Penny's Chief Inspector Gamache novels.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">At work I was so happy to have a day pottering about the shop. Fixing details, moving trade areas about, collaborating with the team to get their ideas on what we could do differently and getting some great ideas. Serving customers (also in a great mood with the weather) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i style="font-weight: bold;">I love </i>Saturdays at work, although I would much rather be home at the weekend with the children, it is generally a good day at work. I have not prepped any lunch and I am cross that I didn't bring the rest of my chicken, potato salad and corn on the cob. I resort to the dreaded sandwich, crisps and chocolate.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">After work Danni (my deputy manager) and I got a lift from Ricky (one of my team leaders) over to Bideford to start the Nightwalk, a charity fundraising walk for our local hospice. It was 11 miles through the evening and into the late night. Neither of us had done it before so we didn't know what to expect. We were really impressed with the organisation and everyone was very friendly. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The theme was Let Yourself Glow and we all dressed up, Danni did a great job of getting us tutus and neon face paint. Clearly we need to up our game for next year as there were women lit up from head to toe with fairy lights, glowing clothes, flashing headgear </span><img height="20" src="https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/263a.png?v5" width="20" /><br />

We have some delivery issues which are a major irritant for our customers so we get that dealt with, I make pay adjustments, run payroll, check my forecasting and adjust budgets for the remainder of the quarter accordingly and then spend the rest of the day briefing the team. It's a values based session and I wanted to take the opportunity to thank them, celebrate success and tell them how proud I am of them.</span></div>

I am so hungry when I get home that I have a few crackers and butter whilst dinner is cooking. I have chicken, potato salad and corn on the cobs. It was delicious. Mum and I wandered around the garden amazed all over again at how it grows at this time of year. I must get some detail photos on Sunday when I'm home.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Alex was amazing he ran all the way, apart from where he needed to walk as I was going so slowly. 'Mum, why don't you try moving your legs a bit further apart?' great advice kiddo,</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> 'Because I am concentrating on not stopping mainly' </span><img height="20" src="https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f60b.png?v5" width="20" /><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">He was such amazing company. I thought he was just coming for a break but he obviously had ideas about coaching me. Now I have been running for about 14 years on and off and I know everything there is to know about <i>my</i> first 15 minutes of mental struggle on each run. It's never really that bad but bad enough to know about it. Well he was such a great coach, 'Look at me Mum, don't take your eyes off me', 'Try and breathe Mum'... 'i'll distract you, what if Nan found a new tree and there was a fruit on it that no-one had ever seen before would you eat it or give it to a scientist?' I am pretty sure I have never been asked that question before.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Anyway, it absolutely worked in that I was distracted. The first 15 minutes being hard, no I doubt that is ever going to change </span><img height="20" src="https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f604.png?v5" width="20" /><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> For my training for a 10k in July I was supposed to do 4.6km but he pushed me on another 0.6 so we ended up doing 5.2km so we were pleased with that.</span><br />

Thanks to the gang at work Danni, Ricky, Hannah and Greg for doing such a great job while I was away on holiday. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: 'American Typewriter';"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The Christmas season always starts for me at our town’s lighting the lights ceremony which is started by the primary school children parading with their lanterns. I have been home 10 years now and Ali was just a baby when we first went. The first year I carried him in his pouch, then his buggy for a couple of years, then on reins (wishing I brought the buggy…) then he was suddenly old enough to join the parade in reception class along with Louis. Louis had been enjoying the parade as he was in Year 1 when we moved back. By the time Ali was old enough to join in Louis was an old pro and showed him the ropes. I was into papercrafting by then, I had bought an electronic diecutter and we cut out lantern shapes and made them that year with fake tea lights in them. I loved them and we used them for home decor that year too.</span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: 'American Typewriter'; line-height: normal; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
A couple of years later Louis headed off with his friends quite a lot. The town high street is quite small and the whole town is out or so it seems. I LOVE that, even though I don’t know many people here very well, I know lots of faces and that is familiar and comforting, especially after living in a big city.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: 'American Typewriter'; line-height: normal;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">It is great to see the little groups of youngsters running around, teenagers grouping and being excited but cool :-) It is great to see the little kids in buggies and pouches with wide wide eyes.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The year it snowed…unusual around here so a great sense of excitement, on a christmas event, wow. It only snowed for about 5 minutes, but still!</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: 'American Typewriter'; line-height: normal; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">The year the jam jar broke on the way and the tears!</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: 'American Typewriter'; line-height: normal; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">The past two years I think it has rained, one of them Ali was poorly so we only ventured as far as the church to listen to the service and hear the countdown and see the lights and fireworks from the opposite end of the crowd, (there were lots of people there too from my end of the town which surprised me and pleased me, older people, generally without children and I had a glimpse of my future).</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: 'American Typewriter'; line-height: normal; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">This year was the last year that Ali is in primary school so I felt it as a bittersweet evening. He had made his lantern at school out of a nutella jar and tissue paper. Good job Ali. We headed up to the meeting point and it was great to see Jane with her niece, Chris was there and a lot of faces I recognised. Mum remembered to bring the long matches so we were in demand for a few moments at the start to get some lanterns going. Then it was time to be off. I haven’t been documenting with my camera lately, I don’t know why. I think maybe taking an unconscious break ready to start anew at Christmas? Anyway, I raised the big camera high to video us all parading down the steep hill towards the high street; a great big lovely kid noise of a parade. As we went along the high street with the crowds watching and joining in on our way to the Church and War Memorial where the service and ceremony always is. We managed to get a good spot, the phones and cameras didn’t run out of space or battery (a first in itself) and get the whole service and firework display. LOVE it.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: 'American Typewriter'; line-height: normal; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">The story I want to remember of that night? The way Ali took my hand without me asking on the way there, each time we hold hands now I think “is this it? The last time?” and squeeze a little harder, for him and for me. That was the very, very sweet. The bitter? By the time the evening and ceremony was done he was wanting to just be with his friends, dismissing my words, not in a bad way but just in a, well you know, my friends are more interesting right now way. On the way home he asked if he could hang with his friends next year. Yes, you can. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am not as prepared for the season as I have been for the past few years. Since we lost Dad and Rich it has been a season that we have tried to make as magical as possible under the circumstances. I am really <b>proud</b> that we have and that the kids (and us) have still had a wonderful season. Big thanks go to my Mum, losing a husband and a son is unimaginable and she has gone through it with grace, love, peace and her blimmin' lovely smile. So this December is for you Mum. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This year we have a new young adult as Lauren just turned 18. Hang on, I just had to pause and think "what?" for the millionth time this past few weeks. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Ali is into his second christmas as a non-believer. Jeekers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Louis is 15 and getting his teenage bearings. You know.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is different and enjoyable and weird. If you have been through it then you know; if you haven't then prepare yourself by enjoying every second of the believers, the excited-by-stockingers, the circling-the-tv-guiders, the wide eyed excitementeers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So this year I decided that if I didn't do anything, then, well I wouldn't do <i>anything</i>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So I bought the December Daily kit from <a href="http://aliedwards.com/2015/12/december-daily-2015-day-one" target="_blank">Ali Edwards</a>, I knew that if I paid out I wouldn't want it to go to waste. Usually I love putting together a kit but not this year, I knew I needed something different. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I had a lovely couple of days last week putting together my foundation pages. For those that don't know I work in retail and of course we are busy in December. So finding creative energy isn't always possible. But now I have a whole album sitting here ready to just add words and pictures :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Oh and I also need to find stuff to do that will include everyone. Ice Skating, Christmas Markets, but mainly seeing those I love.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Oh and find Peace and Quiet. Those are my intentions.<span style="text-align: center;"> </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Finally finished.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Considering Week In The Life took place in August and I thought I was going to be done by mid-september I suppose that mid-october is not too bad... </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am so glad I perservered with it as I so enjoyed the project for the documentation, but I really wanted it scrapped as well. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I loved making the kit for it. I chose a pack of paper Webster's Pages, Dream In Colour, some embellishments old and bought some new (the gold heart washi tape is a fab new purchase) and then I did some die-cutting on my Eclips, my BigShot and made some embellishments to go with it all. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The title page to break the scrapping up in the album from the last story scrapped. I am including it in my yearly album. I <i>generally</i> scrap everything in one album chronologically, I <i>generally</i> have 3-4 albums a year, depending on how much scrapping I do. I <i>generally</i> do 12x12's for my favourite photos and then different divided page protectors for more day to day additional photos. I have copied Ali Edwards' love of 6x12 pages for the past year or so and often journal on those. I have done that this time too. I used the quote that Ali put up on her blog this Sunday as part of her One Little Word - Give project this year where she shares quotes. I am sure most of them would have been valid for this project but of course this is the one that I saw this week.</span></div>
