You're So Tweet!

Goo Afternoon All, Monday again, where does the weekend fly off to!  I'm still on a day off so I don't have that awful Monday morning blue feeling, that will happen tomorrow when I go back to work.

I hope you are all well and have had a good weekend.  We have had some rather good weather over the last few days and it makes for brighter spirits.
Thank you for the comments on Alistair's Sock Blocks, he is delighted you like them.  I am so lucky to have him be able to make things for me.  When he was still at work for Community Service, he was a Projects Officer and he looked for projects which the clients could to do for the community.  He didn't think that it would help to rehabilitate people if they were sent to to the most horrible task, he wanted them to experience meaningful work which may lead them to having a sense of achievement and self worth. Not a principle held by all of his bosses, but nevertheless Alistair forged ahead with is plans.  The scheme reached 100% attendance rates, never before happened, and a few of the folk went on to either college or managed to get jobs. Of course there was always going to be those who are habitual offenders, who will never become good citizens, every society has them, but you can't give up on people because of that.
Unfortunately, when Alistair retired, the powers that be, who have no vision at all, have managed to run the scheme into the ground, and all the hard work Alistair put in is long forgotten, not thankfully by the elderly folk who had gardens created, and logs cut for them, playgroups who benefited by various projects, the Hospice, and other charity organisations who were able to make money from all the lovely, planters, picnic tables and various other wooden items made by "the boys and lasses" as he called them, many of whom had no idea that they had skills which could be used for the good of others.
Community Service in Inverness is now a much poorer scheme for the want of a man with, empathy and vision.

Anyway, that's my Alistair for you, but enough about him, here is my card for today;

This is just a little card which I tried to replicate from the Little Claire examples using their new Club Stamp.
Didn't work, so this is my version.All the card and paper arrived with the stamp.  Coloured with Promarkers, and I've added gems and paper flowers and a button which are from the New Riverbank Revels range. Star Dust to give it a bit of a sparkle.
Just one for my box.  Hope you like it.
Well that's all for me today and it might be a few days before I get back to posting again, but when I get an opportunity I'll be popping in to see what you're doing.
Have a good day
