BIG Post...


blimey - I have tons to add, and I dare say I will forget most of it - yep thats me - dippy dee! lol.
Well firstly, poor Lexie baby had a tumble down the concrete stairs outside school last week! In her words 'roll roll roll arghhhhh' bless her, a rather LARGE egg...
Riley got a new toy!!!! bit too small for it at the moment but loved his trial run...

I've had lots of craft goodies arrive, lots of baby goodies for my website and lots of new design ideas for my website too, now I just need the time to sort it all out and get it on there!
I'm very excited, I'm going to become self employed and see how the website goes, its all my own work and I love the fact that everything on there is designed or handmade or put together by me and me alone. I am very very proud of myself.
Jacks friend Jake is sleeping over tonight, Jacks first sleep over here, so that should be fun, but for who! lol and he has a birthday tea to go to later as well, so must get cracking as still lots to do.
Only TEN more sleeps to the holiday and the majority of us are getting excited, meaning I'll get excited nearer the time, but I think Cazz has forgot how old she is as she is worse than the blooming kids!!! lol sorry mate x love ya really...
I'm looking at going for the pencil lines comp as they are looking for a DT member, I dare say I am no where near good enough, but at least its an excuse to get scrapping...
Right must go and finish off that son of mines VERY MESSY BEDROOM

Altered Art...

No stash for me off postie today! Although I did bag myself a bargain off ebay last
night!!! Once its arrived - and I so cannot wait - it will be posted on here... must share the bargain.
Well I've done my first peice of altered art tonight, Riley's having a very relaxed sleep bless him and Jacks been tucked up for ages, so I had a moment to myself.
I had an old perfume bottle tin hanging around, I've just purchased some watercolour pencils and wanted somewhere to store them - hey presto...

I'm very happy with it, and if I ever get a desk! and not the kitchen table to work from, it will sit proudly on there.

Good Day...

I am feeling great today! Maybe its because we have some lovely weather or just the fact that I feel on top of the world!
I had a weight loss last night which pleased me.
The boys are well and healthy and my lovely fella is starting a new job on Tuesday!!! He took the plunge and bravely handed in his notice and is going elsewhere for the better hopefully, so we are very proud of you honey - big hugs and kisses just for you -
AND... we are only 18 sleeps away from our holiday to Cornwall - yippee...
AND... I have lots of stash!!!


This is my Pocket and Floss pattern and all of the fabrics were kindly and stressfully chosen by Emma from her buttonberry website, and they are just gorgeous, as I really didnt know where to start as this is my first but hopefully not my last sewing project! So watch this space and I'll keep it updated with my progress - eek...
and this is my stash from a trip down memory lane which I found through Anso's blog, how gorgeous are those papers! and few freebie ribbons too, ATDML and Anso's blog are so worth a visit, very inspirational.
Well I'm waiting for postie to come and hopefully I'll have more stash to show tomorrow.
I'm off to do a LO I think! Here goes.. TTFN X
