    Rainmac I think all our fellas are underpaid for the jobs they do, they all need a good pay rise to keep their wives in craft stash :) I just fessed up to ordering 2 MS punches, only cos I think they will come on Saturday while I'm at work! I hope your DH makes it home in time for your evening out. Don't think I could organize parties especially if I had to attend them!! 6 screaming 7 year old girls was enough to pierce your eardrums!! One of the little girls paid my DH a big compliment she said "I wish you were my papa cos you are lots of fun and my papa's are mardy!!" and she gave him a big hug.

    Craftygranny sending you big ((((HUGS)))) hope everythings ok.

    Sorry if I'm neglecting your blogs at the moment, I just dont seem to have much time. We have Willow again today, she just loves coming and we love having her.

    PrincessPoppyPop - your easel cards are fabulous - you are organised!!! I think my favourite one is the blue one at the front - such pretty colours!!!!

    Louby-Lou-Lou - congratulations on losing more weight - mine's slowed down a lot now.

    Pointofnoreturn - how was Inception - I fancy seeing that!

    Rusty - I'm sorry to hear your news. I was looking at Craftwork Cards' site last night and was wondering whether to take a chance and order some of the 8x8 cards - you'll have to let me know how you get on with them. I was going to order some cream cards too as sometimes I think my white card blanks are a bit too bright. Your "thanks you" cards are great by the way - I'm sure OH will love them!

    FifiFolle - your cards are fabulous!! I love the cupcake one - I'm sure you're friend will love it! Your Lili of the Valley one is so cute too! How did you get on with your promarkers???

    The-Wife - your fashion card is stunning - love the ribbon - the image wasn't from me though - must be another Mel!!!! How did you find working with the bigger cards???

    TomsMom - love your xmas card - that tree image is fab! Your texture card is soooo pretty too - the feather just finishes it off nicely, and I love the colours on your teddy card.

    CT19720 - sounds like you had a great day yesterday!

    Craftygranny - its great to hear from you - I'm glad to hear that your fundraising is going so well - make sure you get some rest though! I hope everything's okay for your son and Alicia.

    Congratulations *******

    Rainmac - no kids and no OH - I bet you get loads of crafting done!!!!

    flourgirl your DH must have been so chuffed at the little girls comment - awwwww. Glad you had a great time and are enjoying the quiet today.

    ScattyJan enjoy your wedding at the weekend - hope you get nice weather.
  • Afternoon!!!

    Well I got in late last night after going to see 'Inception'. The earlier showing was full so we had to wait for the 8pm on. Well worth the wait though - fantastic film, kept me entralled till the end!!! You do have to really concentrate on the film as it is quite conmplex!!! My head was aching ab it and I felt quite drained when I got out from it due to the extra work on my brain lol!!!!

    Congrats to Rainmac on her win and to XXXX!!!!
    Craftygranny - hope all goes well for your son and Alicia - hope you feel better soon as well.
    Rusty - so sorry to hear your sad news.

    Off to see my auntie this afternoon so no time for crafting again today - good thing my mojo is not to be found!!!!!
