Candy time Again!

Sorry for not being a good blogger lately and  getting around to visit everyone

It's the big spider that's lurking here......keeping me out of the craft room lol!

Seriously though I have been so busy with the business this last couple of weeks..... it has got in the way of my beloved cardmaking!

It's quite frustrating turning out these lovely stamp designs but not having enough time to play with them myself

Anyway I am about to go on holiday so I decided to leave a little candy competition for my friends and followers.....just to say thank you for all your visits and all the lovely comments you leave
