Hi i have been coming on this forum now for a few months I started crafting by accident one day just before christmas last year in sept. i saw a craft shop in my town that i never knew was there.
i went in and though i would buy some stuff to make a nice christmas card . just to to try .. wel here I am still doing it i bought lots of other craft goodies including joannas cd's
i just did 32 mothers day cards that i sold to all my freinds (they ordered them) from the bookatrix board from joanna site.

i live in a town called Heywood nr Greater manchester with my husband and my tempermantal teenage son. i have 2 daughters who are married and one of them the eldest has 2 children . a girl and a boy who are 10 and 8

I am 49 years old.i have very bad Rhumatiod Arthritis in all my major joints I am . but it dont let it stop me doing the thi gs I love. I love horses I own a welsh section c mare called megan . who is very very well behaved (she has to be with my illness) and part form my children husband and grandchildren she is the light of my life. and keeps me going.

now the cards are taking over they keep me going when i cant go out.
i love this forum I am tottally addicted and like to think i have made some realy nice freinds on here too.
