Special Day

I had some more of this wonderful paper left on my desk so thought I would make use of it and put another card together.



Used another image from Sugar Nellie, coloured with PM's with some Sakura glitter pen added to the flowers and doodling around the edges, then matted it onto SU cardstock. Used My Mind's Eye double-sided DP and my Fiskars border punch to create the scalloped edge. Layered the sentiment from Cuddly Buddly onto a scalloped circle made with SU punch and attached it to the card with a piece of gold cord. Finally, added a couple of Bazzill brads.

Can't believe the weekend is gone already! Lewis is off to London today for five days - I've actually scheduled this post because we have to be up the school at 7.30 am so it will be quite hectic this morning so he will have already left by the time you read this {big tear}. Things are going to be soooo quiet with just me and Sam - guess I'd better make the most of it as it will be back to arguing and quarrels between the two on Friday evening!!

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...
