    Flourgirl - hope you have a fab holiday!!!!

    Myzdamena - glad you found your way back to us! I too wish I had a crafting buddy that lived close to me - it'd be so much fun crafting together!

    I mean... my 4 year old daughter loves crafting with me... but she always ends up taking my stash I want...I need to be more firm...

    ...she's at school full time from the 3rd week in September...maybe I can get my crafting groove back on then hehe

    Have a lovely time xxxxx

    I must admit I can't stomach caravans after having to live in one once for 7 months... 5 of us in a small caravan with a stinky dog.... it wasn't the best time of my life! :rotfl:

    ...sent hubby out to Subway after he got in from work... poor lad... he had to take me to an appointment today then go back to work and then when he gets back I order him back out.... bad Myz, Bad Myz!

    :o

  • Wow craftygranny is write about the number of pages!!

    Spending the day with my mum and dad. They've got their caravan in a site. About half an hour from us. Problem is that it has a fantastic craft shop and I've just spent £70!!!! OH doesn't know yet :) I did get a beautiful pack of cosmic shimmer embossing powders though! Can't wait to use them although I really nmeed to finish decorating our house as we've only moved in a couple of months ago

    I love that.Think i'll have to visit that one then. My sister said she's off to liverpool at the end of this month nudge nudge wink wink :rotfl::rotfl:which means she'll be calling in papermill and bringing me some card back.

    Postie didn't bring me anything today today only a hospital appointment. I should have walked to doncaster and collected it. lol. Struggle to go much further than the bottom of the drive.lol.
