Like many of you I've been glued to the news about the 12 boys and their soccer coach trapped deep inside a flooded cave system in Thailand. Over the past two days 8 boys have been rescued, and as I write this post the process of getting the remaining 5 people out is already underway. This drama has captured the attention of the world and there are hundreds of people involved in helping to ensure that this story has a happy ending. Some have travelled from across the globe to assist the ... VIEW POST
Nature’s wonders
One of the things I really noticed when I returned home from my vacation was how much our property had changed in the space of 3 weeks. The trees that were virtually bare are now completely covered in leaves and there's so much more wildlife around.

Today, nothing. I could see as far as the trees at the end of the property and after that it was all a solid mass of dreary grey. It looks like ... VIEW POST
Slowly but surely
My website is moving forward albeit much more slowly than I'd hoped. That said I'm planning to be blogging my new projects from this site on a daily basis starting this week. All my previous 1000+ projects and blog posts can still be found on my Stampin' Up! website at http://tracyelsom.stampinup.net. Today's simple Sunday project is a gift tag. I love the colour combination of Rich Razzleberry, Coastal Cabana and Very Vanilla, and the Rich Razzleberry 1/4" Velvet Ribbon and Tinted Faceted ... VIEW POST
