Thanks for visiting me earlier. What a fab event the bike ride is and what a lovely way to raise money [says she who can't ride a bike lol]. So glad it's not too hot for them.
Hugs,

Wow, all those cyclists will be an amazing sight - what a great event to have coming through your area! I love the flowers journal, that’s so pretty and drawing on a patterned background isn’t something I’ve ever thought of before, I’m going to give that a go!

I fab ecodyed journal! I haven't done the follow up lesson yet, but it's a good idea to use index cards and perhaps include them with your journal later on - that's what I'm planning to do! Such a lovely challenge this is! (go all yoda LOL!) Enjoy the bike race and thanks for your visit! Sending you creative sparks! xx zsuzsa #18
I Was just telling Zsuzsa that I don’t have the equipment in the caravan and that I didn’t want to destroy a bouquet of flowers either. I do want to have a go when we get back though. I am amazed that the pages don’t either fall apart or get stuck to each other. Happy WOYWW. Angela #16
Well that sounds a fun event - I haven't ridden a bike since I was a kid though! looks like you are having fun with the class, hope it continues to go well. Helen #2

That's a lot of riders. I have only been on a bike once in my life. The journal looks like fun too and hope we get to see more of it. Wishing you a very happy and creative woyww. Hugs, Angela x9x
That bike ride must be impressive as it goes through! Kudos to all involved. Whenever I am doing a course or challenge the amount of stuff on the desk is just unbelievable and can take me days to clear up. Good fun though - enjoy!! Have a good week, love n hugs Cindyxx #15
