Cups Of Fun ....

Dion @ http://www.diondior.com/

I had it all planned and sorted to do this post yesterday

but in typical fashion I got distracted

and I sailed through the day with a nagging feeling there was something I was going to do

I considered it may have been things like put fuel in the car, wash the floors

or buy food for the devouring hordes that my family have become

of course I did none of those things either, but for the life of me I couldn't think what it was

which is not uncommon given the hamster wheel circus that is my brain

but it was mildly annoying none the less

Corrine @ http://www.sparkledaysstudio.com/

It didn't even twig this morning when I was in the studio finishing up the last touches on yesterday's mug from Corinne

which turned out to be surprisingly tricky given the simplicity of the mug

and it didn't twig while tackling today's tea cup from Dion

which is probably fair enough as it was nerve wracking in the extreme 

because Dion had kindly sent me photos and explained it was her grandmothers

and has told me how much it means etc etc... and I adore Dion so I wanted to do a good job

not that I don't want to do a special job on them all, I really do

but I wanted this one to do justice to the time she had taken in photographing it from a heap of angles and the stories she shared with me

Which has been one of the lovely things about doing ICAD

 and the Cuppa With Friends Project

because people are sending me their mugs and cups

and many have been telling me about them 

and it really is like having a cuppa with them and getting to know them

in short it is freakin awesome so far

So I finished off Dion's in the half hour I have allotted

and was mightily relieved that it came up so well in such a short time

and was about to post it to facebook when it finally hit me

blog post... and link up... and blog visits

so I freaked out at being late to the link up,'

 then got crazy excited because

and I can't wait to get to know new blogs,

 and visit old friends as well of course

but basically I just want to have a good old stick beak at what people have been doing

So here are my latest... a wide variety and all of them lots of fun

my biggest problem at the moment is not sitting and doing about 20 at once

because there are just so many fabulous ones... some are gorgeously delicate and detailed

and others are magnificently and gloriously kooky

but they all have personality and are inspiring

Of course if you would still like to send me a photo I am always happy to receive them

and just click up here for all the details...

happy ICAD wrap up all...xx

my last blog post and last ICAD wrap up posts are here...
