I've Won Some Blog Candy!!


Can't believe it - it's the first time I've won some blog candy and doesn't it put you in a good mood! even after the night I had (will explain more in a mo). There's a site I visit, Beauty Lies Within (link on the left of my blog) and I find it really good....very inspiring. Anyway, Mary Jo was holding a little blog candy competition so thought I would have a go! Think my luck is changing for 2008 cause I also won £35 on the Lottery!!!!! Better than a kick up the backside!

Anyway, back to last night.......I was having my best pal, Adele, over for a curry and drinks cause, with Tony away, have trouble finding babysitters, etc., and it all started well until the kids started playing me up. They're usually really well behaved but they kept coming downstairs, which is understandable for the first couple of times but NOT after six or seven! Then they were running into each others rooms and generally misbehaving. They were still awake at 1.00 am this morning. However, horrible Mummy got her own back.....I got them up early this morning! They won't win with me! Got another mate coming round tonight so I dare them to misbehave!!

Back to the card....I did say you would probably see this paper again! I'm using up the rest of the sheets I printed off the computer. It's Pink Petticoat Blueberry (just in case you didn't know!) and the image is a PB Stickeroo. The sentiment is a sticker from MAMBI and I added three Papermania sticky jewels to the image to finish. Hope you like!
Kids are off to a late Christmas party this afternoon so sneaky Mummy will be able to get a couple of hours shut eye then, hopefully, the boys will be so exhausted after their early start and party, that they will go to sleep on time! I live in hope!!

Last of the Whipper Snappers (for the moment!!)

Morning all......is it morning already?!! Had a very hectic night.....got woken up at 1.30 am with the sound of vomit bouncing off the landing carpet!! Sam wasn't very well and didn't quite make it to the bathroom so spent most of the early hours of this morning trying to clean the landing carpet, the carpet in his bedroom, washing bedclothes and cleaning him up!!! Eventually got to bed at 4.30 am then was woken at 9.15 this morning by Sam asking me if I was getting up because his tummy was empty and he was hungry!!! Got to love 'em!! Anyway, at least he's feeling better. Got to try and phone the Carpet Cleaner in a minute and order Sam a new mattress as his is ruined....oh the fun of being a Mother!! Back to business now, here's a card I made during the week with one of my new Whipper Snapper arrivals. I don't know how often I will use this stamp but it was a case of "ooh, it's so sweet, I've just got to have it!!" I've coloured the snai...

I've Been Busy!!!

It's funny what happens to me when I lose my internet connection so I can't do any blogging.........I end up doing some crafting!!!! Well that's what happened yesterday afternoon and evening....my internet connection kept flicking on and off probably due to all the bad weather we experienced. Not quite so windy today but the rain is continuous! I actually finished my Easter Egg bags yesterday whoo hoo!!! Well, I say finished, I've got three more to put together but I have coloured the label and everything but I need to go to Asda and buy some more creme eggs and I'm not going anywhere today because I'm due a parcel delivery....hopefully, my camera! I hope you're ready for these photos....I was just going to put one picture on but thought hey, I had to suffer making them, they should suffer looking at them!!! The photos aren't very good I'm afraid and I'm proud to say that not one chocolate egg was harmed during the making of these bags......in ot...
