Hi Nic

Lovely bear card, love the colours and image,

Sorry you did not have a good day yesterday, some you win some you lose, at least you got your table money, don't give up the next one could be a winner. Sometimes people are just looking and thinking its frustrating I know but it's all part of the craft fair. The worse ones are when you don't take any money at all.

Awwwwwwww another Nic cutie. Love your colouring and choice of colours and papers.
Shame about the craft fair. I did my first stand at a rotary club event a couple of weeks ago. Sold 9 cards but by the time I paid for the stand and 2 drinks from the bar I made a total of £20, but at least now I know what not to do :)
