Hay Desk Surfers,
Sorry i've been absent for a month, the joys of ill health {said extremely sarcastically} have kept me from my crafty endeavors.
My desk has looked like this for the past couple of weeks, the last thing I managed was to have a little play with my new Gelli Arts plate,
***
The other thing I hope you don't mind me sharing is my excitement
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEL
My readers submission made the front cover of Nov's Craft Stamper
out in shops Friday, and already available online in several places.
This is the first time I have sent anything to CS Mag, so to receive my sub copy and find my work on the front after all the rubbish health stuff i've been going through lately was a total thrill.
Thanks for stopping by, and happy desk hopping, I hope to visit you soon x
Stay Inky
♥ HUGZ ♥

Sorry to hear you have been sick kiddo! It isn't much fun! LOVE it that you made the cover of craft stamper. I get it a week or two later here in the states but I am going to look forward to it this month! Congrats. Vickie

Wow, congrats on the cover spot; I can imagine your excitement. Hope you feel better soon and have a good week.
You have ever right to be jumping up and down! I did a happy dance for you all the way over the see!
WOW!! WOW! Fantastic full cover of a national, well deserved you! I shall look forward to my copy even more now. I don't know anything about the gelli plates, so am mystified! Don't overdo it gal, feeling better now doesn't mean you can make up for lost time!!
I've linked up at WOYWW for you. Sorry. Blogger says it wouldnt accept the HTML and then it did anyway. HUh?
Well done again on your piece in CS and making the cover too!! I keep meaning to send something off but..!!! Have a good day, hope the health is now on the mend. Helen 4

Welcome back Minxy, I've been absent for ages too, but just from being busy. I hope you are starting to feel better now- nothing more miserable that not being well. Congrats on the Craft Stamper, that is fabulous.Can't wait to get my copy now. Love Shaz xx #60
How lovely to see you back. A big congrats for making the cover ....well done a gorgeous entry which deserves to be on the cover. I also can't believe you have a Gelli Plate. Your prints are beautiful. I have just ordered mine and still waiting waiting waiting. But I suppose it has a bit to travel before it gets to OZ. Enjoy your Gelli plate and I may have to seek you advice if I get stuck.

How incredibly lucky for you. I'm so impressed, because I have never tried to send aything to a craft magazine, much less get on the COVER. What an honor.
Hope you are soon feeling much better. It's no fun being sick.
You are really lucky, because I have always wanted one of those Gelli plates but could never afford them.
Happy WOYWW from # 28.
Congratulations on getting your work on the front page of the magazine. Well done!

Happy WOYWW. Congrats on the CS front cover. I received my copy yesterday and have already read through it twice. Hope you are feeling better. Ali x #74
Brilliant news Nicky! So good to see you get the recognition you deserve. Maybe one day I'll pluck up the courage to submit something. Good to hear you're feeling better too.

Fabulous work Nicky, it really deserves to be on the front cover, such a creative piece of altered art.
Your workdesk looks very organised and full of goodies.
Hope you feel much better real soon.
Happy WOYWW.

Congratulations on making the front page of CS - I've had my copy for a few days now so saw it and loved it - the technique is on my to-try list. I've not heard of Gelli plates until today so am intrigued, sigh, something else to keep me poor :)) Hope you have a good week and happy WOYWW. Elizabeth x #49
Oops! Forgot to say, sorry to hear you've been so ill and I hope you are well on the way to complete recovery now. xx
Congratulations, you awesome cover girl!!
Mmmmm, Gelli Plate = FUN!!!
