Jailhousebabe - I've not got a clue how I managed it...it was one of those things where i'd be doing one thing then think of something else that needed doing...I just kept going. Emily suffered for it though & didn't have much mummy & daughter time but I'll def make it up to her tomo as I have no housework
Tierd Mom - I'm exhausted now, thinking its bed time after 24, I am enjoying the glass of wine thankyouI looovvveee the pink card, the papers, the butterfly, the colours, all gorgeous
Samm - your stitching is gorgeous, I wish I had the patienceI won't be doing much tomo apart from giving Emily my attention while Alex is at school to make up for today
:wave:Hi, I have a passion for crafting.......I'm always up to something :rotfl::rotfl:

Gorgeous cards TiredMom.
Sunrise - your B&W cards are lovely, bet your customer will be thrilled.
Of to make a With Sympathy card now for a close friend, was going to buy one for speed but either the words were wrong or the image was.0 -
I've blogged tonight's cards - had no idea what I was gonna make so decided to just pull random bits out of my paper drawer and see where it went lol!
That tiger is gorgeous sammr - as you'll be sooooooooo good at it by the time you've finished can I post you my brand new shiny kit that I just had to buy about 7 years ago and haven't touched (along with about 20 others) I will pick up my needle!!!
I love your cards Tired Mom - especially the last one that flutterby is lovely.
I'm so jealous of all you've got done today JuJu my house is a tip at the mo and I'm working nearly full time for the next 4 weeks :mad:.
What's everyone doing for mother's day - DD has asked me what I would like but it just wouldn't happen - a day off - not one where I get to do all the work on another day but a proper one where them pair do the housework, tidying etc etc - what do you think the odds are of that :rotfl::rotfl:.Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended

I need to do my ironing :rotfl: OH bought me a MS punch for doing it last week and week before, but I need to do it again this week cause I have spent a fortune on craft stash !!Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -
