    Hi folks, first an apology... I seem to of been awol for a while... Have done nothing crafty for months...

    But all that will change now... My wonderful hubby bought me a cuttlebug for christmas!

    Just got to get him to buy me loads of different bits to put through it ;)
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

  • Hiya ladies how are you all? and what did santa bring ya? any nice crafty goodies? I got a Crop A Dile woo hoo :rotfl: :rotfl: a box of 25 reels of ribbon and water colour paints my ultimate crafters companion ( which David bought me a while a go) and some money which i spent at the glitterpot sale i bought 2 tilda stamps 2 basic grey paper pads and other bits and bobs.
    I also got some lovely jewlery from my mil and some purfume from my hubby.

    Hello all and hope you had a good Christmas.
    No exciting craft stuff from santa but myfriend robbed her ribbon drawer and gave me a load of much needed pieces along with some pretty paper and brads.
    Looking forward now to taking down the cards I've had that I can recycle for next year (apart from hand made ones and I always keep them)

    Thanks. Worth knowing. I won't be able to get into WHS as its 20 miles away but I'm sure a lot of people will benefit
