Oh My Oh My Oh My - What have I gotten myself in for!

Well folks news flash .............

I have started my very own forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am excited, nervous, excited, freaking out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Basically I have needed an outlet that is my own for a long time. I am a bit of a control freak and need something to really throw myself into. I Love the forums I am currently active in and can promise you that my launch is nothing other than I need something that I can be more involved in.
So without further ado I invite any crafter who is really serious about their work to come and join me.

I have big plans for the forum - I want sponsorship from retailers, I want to be able to offer forum members up as designers to said sponsor retailers - and most of all I want a place to hang out and have some crafting mayhem and fun. (With lots of prizes and challenges obviously!)

So please come along and say Hi and stick around for a few weeks whilst things are developed into hopefully something REALLY EXCITING.

And OMG I feel like I am giving an oscar speech - here is where you will find me

Forum sounds like fun. I'm not anywhere near as crafty as you, but it should be fun to get new ideas.

By the way, you never said whether you will or will not be commuting to London every day....

Best of luck

Hi Cathy

WELL - The jury was still out on that on Friday as I had been offered the London job too ........

BUT I have now decided that my heart is in my creative ventures - and to maintain a forum I will need time - so I will sign the contract for the local job tomorrow and perhaps start buying lottery tickets!!!!!

Love Bex xxxx

I'm not surprised that this is the news - I thought it might be in the air!

I'm not sure though that you'd accept humble little old me (well, I'm not so little, but the least said about that the better!)

Well done, Bex - hope it all goes really well - and the local job (I'm sure you're doing the right thing because you need the time for your crafting).

Cool Bex!
I am not very crafty though...but it would be interesting to read about what
serious crafters do.
Have a lovely week, my dear!

Suesjoy said...

Hi Bex!
Well, she looked fab OF COURSE!
She was wearing a very pretty grey (lo cut) t shirt (bangers proudly out as you know who would say), long cardigan and jeans.Her hair looked lighter and very lovely - longer maybe?
It was cool being a fly on the wall - the song she played was beautiful. I only caught a bit of the webcast.
Toodles,
Suexx

Sorry I am not ignoring you- I got your e-mail, but it had gone into my junk mail for some reason and then got deleted before I could reply, but have tracked you down (hehe)

Now hurry up and authorise my sub, so I can cause havoc on your forum. Have missed you!

Hey Bex!!

Hope you got my last two e-mails, only I didn't see a reply? Dunno if it's my AOL's wonky broadband, or you were toooo busy with the new forum/website you've launched!

No worries either way; if you need any details etc, give me a shout via e-mail or Blogger!!
