OUCH!

I have learnt, thou shalt not strip plastic coating off copper wire with scissors, the gash on my left thumb is proof of this! So i admit, i have put to the side (another way of saying, given up at this stage of things) the mountain of photos to be scrapped, and i had some fantastic ideas for cards using copper wire and beads. All good i hear you say, well, i thought so too, until i sliced a hole in the top of my thumb when the scissors slipped! Never mind, kids to the rescue and 4 sticking plasters later we are good to go again......... Ok, so i have now put the copper wire to the side, hubby kindly finished it off for me, muttering something about being impatient and waiting for wire strippers.....and i have moved onto organising my paper, ribbon and embellishment stash. Are you like me, enough paper for a Guy Fawkes bonfire, placed carefully into piles but with no sense of order or matching ribbons, flowers, embellishments nearby so you can just pick up and go for it! Well, i am going to work really hard today on sorting things a wee bit better, it's the perfect day for it here as the weather has turned, so here goes, sorting time. It will be good as there are no scissors or wire involved, however it may pay to keep the sticking plasters close by just in case.....
