    My poppicrafts order came today been thinking what I can do with it all!

    I had an email from them to say it was going to take about 3 hours to put my order together so may be a while, did they not want the business or something as they didn't sound overly happy about it!

    Oooo look my strawberry creations are on crafty ribbons blog

    They are amazing well done.
    Tired mom . Thank you so much my package came today . My hubby and the postie were trying to decide what it was they couldn't think of anything except maybe a spare wheel for my zoomer lol.

    Glad it arrived safely I didn't want it to get squashed. I tell you what if the man at the post office had looked in my parcels the day I took them he would have thought I'd lost the plot. I had your reel of ribbon. A very expensive hefty padlock that has gone faulty and is being returned and a pack of viscount biscuits to cheer my brother up, how random!
    Hi All

    Doh just lost my post.

    Had great fun last night at card making workshop with birds as the theme. It was supposed to last 2.5 hrs but ran for 3.5 hrs so really good fun. I will blog my cards over the weekend when I get a chance.

    Been and picked up my Stampin Up order today so can't wait to play but it will be at least Sunday:(. For those who asked for goodies I will get them in the post on Monday.

    Right I'm off as we are off to Rainbows Camp in 30 mins. It is only 5 miles away but some of the girls have never been away from home before so it could be a long night. I'll be back late tomorrow afternoon and then I'm babysitting for a friend all evening so hoping to get some crafting done, or sleeping depending on what tonight is like!

    Wow I never notuced there was down time!! ... I ironed this morning whilst DD was at nursery then when I came home from picking her up I made a card which I just love :eek: Massive thanks to Flourgirl as at the NEC she gave me an envekope with Lace in, when I peeked there was loads of it!!! I have never used lace on a card until today and WOW!! so thankyou!! ... will blog it once I have picked up DS from school!

    I am scared though because I have just arranged our first cambridge diet meeting for tonight at 5:30! MIL is having kids so we can go ... but this is now the start .... we will prob start food free on sunday ..... wonder how many cups of sugary milky tea I can fit in before then as come sunday I won't be allowed any!! ..... No more cakes either :( .... infact no greasy chips, or chinese or currys ... nothing at all that has lumps :eek: I am going to struggle .... also want to stop smoking at the same time so double whammy for me!! .... please help me get through this girls as I really want to lose the weight to stop any lumbar punctures and hopefully be able to walk/run/sit/do everyday things without rattling from the pills or crying from the pain (yes you girls who saw me cry and puch myself trying to get back to the car at the NEC! how embarassing! :o

    Anyway enough rambling from me, i'm nearly caught up with blogs .... and will blog in half hour or so my latest card!

    Your brother sounds like mine lol. The twins are flying to see him in june and so far they have a 1100 pg pyramids each,Huge multipack of walkers crisps each , kit kats , gold bars , oxos and gravy granules in their luggage and mini battenburg and victoria sponges to go in at the last minute. God knows what customs will make of that lot.

    Hope you have a good time at camp. I went about 40 years ago . It'll be different now lol.

    Dragonllew - Your crafty ribbon makes are absolutely fantastic and I'm delighted to have a couple of your cards on my mantlepiece. I'm flattered that Aimee liked the card I sent you, I have more fairies if she'd like some.
    Marg Aimee says she would like some fairies please, she wants to know how you send fairies lol

    Dragonllew - sad to say 'In an envelope' is the answer!

    Mumoffour - I could open your blog but it didn't look as I expected it to - no picture, no background but your text was there. Sorry I can't offer any advice mine's more good luck than management.
  • Rusty - Have sent you a pm. I found the message you sent me a while ago - funny I had no notification and it wasn't showing at the top of the page so I didn't know it was there :o Looking forward to meeting up with you.

    Marg - It didn't recognise me either - I had to log in again

    Thank you to the new followers on my blog - now all I have to work out is how to follow you all :o
