Moving day...

Just to let you know all went well, very smooth. Apart from Mum getting herself locked in a cupboard for 1/2 an hour an no-one knew where she was!!! (don't ask!)......

Anyway, she seems very happy and relatively straight really.

Hope to get time to play with new crafty bits tom - so watch this space and I will try and post some cards this week!!

Charity Netball Match



Meet the guys and girls I work with, last night we held a Charity Netball Match. It was a 'girls v boys' match - with the boys wearing pink fluffy tutu's!! We had a great night, but it was freezing cold. Only Earl (our Company mascot) was warm!
It was all in aid of LIVES and we raised £150.

It's moving day for Mum tomorrow, please don't rain!!

Ohhh and my Glitter Pot delivery arrived today - can't wait to play - just need to find time!

My son is currently running around the room screaming and shouting, his beloved Chelsea have just scored a 95th minute 'away' goal in the Champions League!! with only seconds to go......Liverpool 1 Chelsea 1.

Sisterhood 17 of the Blogging Stampers




Hi all, I am delighted to be a member of the Sisterhood 17 of Blogging Stampers!

I am Sue, very nearly 42, married with 1 son Sam who will be 12 next week! I have been crafting for about 4 years, I love scrapbooking, but have recently started card making again. After some recent blog hopping, I kept coming across Tilda stamps ....... which by the way I am now addicted to!! (I am just waiting for an order to arrive)

I hope to visit all 'my sisters' blogs over the next few days to say 'Hi'.

Birthday Mania ........

It's manic (and expensive!) at this time of year for birthday's:

April 11th Mother-in-Law (it was her 70th)
April 26th My Mum (who is moving house on Wed 23rd)
May 1st Sam will be 12!! (nearly a teenager)
MAY 8th MINE - yippeeeeee (I'll be 42 - but don't tell anyone!!)
May 19th Chris' (who I don't have a clue what to get)

Oooo it's just all go....and yes... we have 3 'Taurus' birthday's all living under one roof - and yes it's true we are stubborn (very) and hot headed (at times!)

But I promise I will post some crafting.....during all this mania!!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend....think of me ...I'm at work!
