Yesterday was a day of highs and lows for me. My phone was stolen but I got the sim cancelled and only lost about €4 credit so it could have been worse. It was an old phone that I had intended changing anyway and I was just relieved that it wasn’t my wallet or car keys.
Anyway, after running around, phoning my mobile provider, picking up a replacement sim card and choosing a new phone I eventually got home and got to open the parcel that Deborah from tast.ie/spicendipity sent me. It was like the Craft angel appeared and saved what was turning out to be a dreadful day. Deborah turned her craft-room into an office and thus I was the benefactor of the crafty goodness that she no longer needs. The parcel also contained my order from Spicendipity which I can’t wait to try….hmmm craft or food first?
I see crafty and well fed times ahead…..that is, once I figure out how to use my new phone.

Absolutely, it’s about time you paid a visit to Limerick. The heat tool is the best bit!!

Is the heat tool like a soldering iron? That is what I used to use.

I’m not too sure, I only saw it in use once. Deborah used it in a demo to emboss stamped cards. Once I get some pigment ink I will have to try it out and do a post on it
