You probably don't know, but I am from a place called Peterborough.
And every year we host The Great Eastern Run. A half marathon that loops around some of the city, starting and ending at Peterborough Embankment. This year my Father-in-Law ran it again, and so hubby and I took the boy to meet his Grandad as he finished.
Its something that I have been saying for a few years that I want to do. And seeing everyone there today, has really inspired me to enter for next year. Now, I haven't run for a good few years, but what better way to get back into running, then to have something to aim for, a year from now. And what better way to help me lose some of this baby weight.
So alongside my crafty posts, for the next year I will be tracking my progress on here, in a bid to keep me focused!

And on the theme of inspiration, I spent some more time Googling this afternoon to find some more papercrafting challenges. I've found that they are a good way to help me decide what to make when I'm drawing a bit of a blank, as my head is currently filled with Nursery Rhymes!
And so this evening I have made my namesake into a cute card, to enter into the following challenges:
This card follows the sketch challenge for the CAS Colours and Sketches Blog, once again uses the Autumn theme for Pan Pastels, and Uses a heat embossed stamp for the Clean and Simple on Sunday Blog.
The stamp is from a set that came with the Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine, which is matted onto a copper self-adhesive paper. It is finished with both gold and copper glitter.
That's all for me tonight folks, best go and sort the steriliser out for the boy.
