Our Next Challenge

 

Good Friday Morning Ladies, 

Janet I hope you are ok, we have really missed you this week. This place is just not the same without your smiling face 😍.  I hope that you are on the mend my lovely,  sending love and warm, gentle hugs X❤X

I have decided to be a bit rebellious Ladies, I did some research on alternative effective treatment for recurring Uti's, I read two different studies where women were treated under clinical conditions, some given placebo others were given a regime of Cranberry Supplements   Garlic &Parsley seed oil capsules, L-argininne (amino acid), Magnesium, Evening Primrose and a probiotic tablet.  The exact measures and dosage were listed too. So I ordered the above after calling my sister who has many certificates for courses on homeopathic remedies,  I wanted to check with her that none of them would cause harm or exacerbate my heart conditions etc, she said that they were a naturally occurring plant extracts etc so should be fine.  The cranberry and Amino Acid smooth the lining of the bladder making it harder for Ecoli to adhere, while the Garlic and parsley work as an antiseptic to rid the body of any existing bad bacteria.  The probiotic will repair and replenish the good bacteria that 4 months of antibiotics have stripped away.  At this pointbI feel I have nothing to lose.  I am wondering if this is the alternative treatment that the Doctor was talking about on Wednesday?!.  

Our Next Challenge 

I wanted to suggest a challenge that would getting us using our stash, maybe a favourite product or technique or a stamp and die set that you have yet to use!  I wanted it to be a challenge that got you using your craft stash items more than once, we have all bought a stamp or die to make a card we saw and loved and never picked it up again.  

So I want you to choose something from your stash and use it more than once, try using it in different ways, so that you are getting good value from our stamps, inks, pens, dies etc.

You can pick  a 'Brand' or Company of products for example 'Aall&Create,  Pink Frog, Tracey Hey, Stamperia, Stampin Up etc, use their products throughout the two weeks of the challenge.   

Or

You could choose a certain stamp & die set and use it a couple different ways, for a card and a journal page or a bookmark,  or even different styles of cards.  Its up to you. 

For instance I might use my Aall&Create stamps to make some Thrinchies, inspired by our Karen. 

I hope you enjoy the challenge and the fact that you are using your stash rather than it being a one trick pony!! 

Have a fantastic Friday my lovelies,

Love and hugs to all of you,

Sandra xxx
