Who fancies a sneak preview of tomorrow's (Thursday 26th February) Craft Day Today's Special Value? Here's a pic of a few cards I put together with the kit (left).
Be prepared for a very busy start to the Craft Day proceedings at midnight tonight as Kanban have the most amazing dance-themed card kit! How perfect is that with all the celebrity dance programmes like Strictly Come Dancing and Dancing on Ice being so hugely popular?
There are can-can dancers, Fred and Ginger-inspired elegance, fabulous 50s rockers, 70s disco divas and so much more. It's been great fun to play with and really easy to put together very impressive-looking cards.
My only hinderance has been the youngest crafter at Chez Huntley, Dinky, who has been chasing, chewing and pouncing as I craft (right). Too cute so I forgive him!

Well, as I have had repeated requests from people for a more behind-the-scenes look at QVC, I have obliged and got snapping. I hope you enjoy these piccies...
First, we have the lovely Simon [left] from Prepology by cook's essentials getting prepared for our show together. Look out for his blog entries on our main QGossip blog, he's got some great recipe ideas.
Here's cook's essentials' own Adrienne Cleasby [right] slipping into something more comfortable - her Birkenstocks! If you've ever seen my height vary in a 2-hour craft show with Dawn it's because I'm also slipping out of my killer heels and into my Birkis! Dale Franklin has even been known to be all suited from the waist up during a jewellery show, but with shorts and trainers on underneath the desk!

Hello again! Well, I must say it is very rare for me to go out these days, apart from the odd lunch or dinner. It's even rarer for Dawn (our crafting expert) and I to get together for a proper night out.
We recently got our diaries out and planned to go out on the weekend just gone as Dawn was due to come off air at 5pm on Saturday.This was going to be perfect as I was going to get the house all tidied and prepared for Dawn and husband JJ to visit.
Then Dawn's hour got moved to 9pm so we called it off but I was really in the mood to go out so Steve and I went to a lovely local Tapas restaurant and then on to a nice Champagne bar for a glass or two.

Dinky made his QVC debut yesterday and caused quite a stir in the QVC building with even the toughest of manly blokey types melting into smiles. He came in to do a little bit of filming as I have had lots of requests to see more of him.
He's very inquisitive and happy to go 'on tour' but his big sisters would have had none of it so they enjoyed having the house to themselves without their lively little bro for a day! Hope you liked seeing him.
