Look What I Got!

Good Morning everyone....very dull and wet day in Weymouth today but hopefully the weather will improve as the week goes on as the kids are off school this week.

Wanted to share a few things I received over the past week. Firstly my SBS-13 Sister Heather, sent me these gorgeous cards in our card swap. Sorry about the photos as they really do not do the cards justice.




They are so pretty and beautifully coloured....what a talented lady Heather is and she sent me some acrylic stamps as well....how lucky am I?!!


I have also received some awards over the last week....



I got the Kreative Blogging from Sue and both of the awards from my SBS-13 Sister Jo. Thanks so much girls so firstly you can both have them back again as I love visiting your blogs and seeing what creations you have come up with! I would like to give the Kreative Blogging Award to Dawn for two reasons (1) her work is absolutely fabulous and always inspires me and (2) although I haven't known her that long and have never met her in person, she has become a real blogging buddy to me and is always there to listen to me moan!! I would also like to give the Blogging with a Purpose award to all the lovely ladies who are on the Stamp Something DT with me - your work is so original and creative!

Must get on now as Vanessa and her DH are coming down today. Paul has kindly offered to connect up my Wii for me! so you know what we will be doing this afternoon! However, will definitely be back later today with all the details for my little blog candy competition.

Have a great day!

ooo I love the colouring on the cat card. I've done this stamp, but it looks so much better like you've done it. If I have any images left I'm going to get it a go. Love the other cards to. All your crafting is lovely x Vicki x

My Surprise For Tony!!

As promised, I'm back to let you in on my surprise for Tony tomorrow! Don't know where to start with this but maybe a little personal history first. When I married Tony in 1996 I was a UK size 14. I've always had to watch my weight and never been naturally thin but was never vastly overweight either. In March 1997 I fell pregnant with Lewis and that's when the trouble started.....the weight piled on and after he was born as well because I wasn't eating properly and just grabbing food out of the fridge when I had a spare five minutes.....oh, the joys of being a new Mum! Then I got pregnant again with Sam and even though I didn't gain much more weight during pregnancy, I made up for it afterwards! Am I boring you yet! It took me ten years and many failed diets to finally get serious about losing weight so I started my diet in January this year and this is the evidence....... please do not show the first photo to small children or animals as it may scare them !!!!!
