  9. Hello World - here I am!!! I am crafter of 40 years who has never had the courage to join a group or do a course until last year. I only showed my things to another crafter for the first time 2 years ago but I read blogs and "lurk" on mixed media websites daily. I tried to join a local course twice in the last year and it didn't run due to lack of interest and I WAS READY TO GIVE UP.....and today comes an emails telling me about the chance to join the "SMASHEES" and i did it! So its time for me to be brave and i'm shaking already - i am looking forward to meeting the other "SMASHEES", and thanks Shelagh for the opportunity. December can't come quickly enough. Now to sign up for the blog, upload pic etc.....see you soon! Littlebigs
