You Make My Day Award


Perhaps it's not such a bad day today after all......no crafting stash for Mothers' Day, haven't been taken out to lunch nor had one made for me BUT I did get two very sweet handmade cards, three daffodils from our garden(!), a magazine (from Lewis's own pocket money!) and a luke warm cup of very strong black coffee all brought up to me on a tray in bed!! Bless them!! Plus, I also received this award from Tara. Thanks Tara, it really is appreciated :) I now, in turn, have to award this to five people and I've chosen Fran because not only is she inspirational but she also makes me laugh!, Denise my great blogging buddy in the States whose work I admire greatly, Katharina, another hugely talented lady, Jackie who reminds me so much of myself (!) and last but by no means least, Annie who not only does great work but is always ready to help.

Thanks Jo! You're too sweet. You've made my day with this award. I love that we have become friends! It's been great chatting and sharing ideas through the blogs. I look forward to it everyday!

Sounds like a nice Mother's day. Happy Mother's Day to you! I bet those cards from the boys will be a treasured gift. Lucky too that you already have daffodils in the garden, definitely no fresh flowers here! :) Hope you had a wonderful day. Hugs! :)

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!!

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...
