Hi everyone
Many , many thanks for all the beautiful handmade cards , isnt it wonderful to recieve them , I loved each and every one of them and they shall stay on display for a long time to come -thanks also for my lovely cat stamp such a cutie xx
Im haveing a fab time - Hubby has spoilt me rotten . I got a super, duper paper cutter, a lovely posh arch for the garden ( I have always wanted one - but never had a garden where one would fit) , daughter also brought me 2 climbing roses for the arch - also from hubby I got a huge set of Kanban Stamps and stackables (they were on QVC earlier in the week) they arrived today and I love them , never really been one for stamping but omg music notes - dandelions - these were a must have I think roughly there are about 35 stamps !- am also being treated to a few bits from the range that I ahem need! lol - Little Grandaughter awwww I got a teapot from with her little footprint and handprint on its soooo nice. I also got £100 garden voucher from my lovely MIL and a £30 garden voucher from my lovely SIL and her hubby - have my best friends round for a BBQ tonight - what a perfect day :-)
Thanks for the lovely wishes
Love to you all
Love Me
xx

ohhhh silly me my wonderful pusscats brought me Adele CD

Sounds like a fabulous day - gad you got so many nice things. I am going to have a great big crafting weekend soon and make cards for everybody who has had a birthday that I've not sent a card to. So that would be you all (hangs head in shame)

I too treated myself to the Kanban stuff, mainly because I wanted the Christmas set which will be sent on auto delivery in about 3 months' time) I did debate all day about it and finally ordered it about 10.00pm - it arrived yesterday. I know the p&p is more expensive but much better service than C&C.

My day hasn't gone at all to plan - leaky connection in the utility room (behind the washing machine) resulted in my moving stuff around to find what was causing the puddle, and lifting up the tiles. Pulled up half the flooring so that it can dry out. Fortunately, the tiles are horrid and I don't mind that they are ruined, and I think my plumbing ability does extend to tightening something up.

Back later xx

Rainmac - I think the link ali meant is this one Here

Ali.b - well done on your win too :j

Georgie - sorry I haven't entered your challenge - unfortunately too much going on here at the moment - 2nd funeral in 4 days tomorrow it's exhausting .

That's no problem - big hugs for tomorrow, in fact not just tomorrow, but for the whole weekend which can't have been much fun with a funeral either side of it.xxxxxxx


Right - Challenge update - this is what I have so far

If I've missed anybody, or got bloggs with wrong names, let me know and I'll give myself a slap

Some lovely cards, glad it's a random winner and I'm not having to choose, although I do have a sneaky favourite (mainly because I have 2 black cats)

Over on the LOTV blog here the challenge set today is using die cuts and punches. I'm going to have a go and see if I can get a 'good luck' card done for the MSE challnge too. I wonder if I've got a LOTV image to spare

LOL - I'm sure you might find one if you look really hard!

I have some lovely new stash to play with. A parcel came from hubby as a present on friday but as we were out we missed it but he collected yesterday for me.

I had pointed out a few things i liked in a recent mag and he got me them. I have lots of lovely papers, a couple of stamps, ink pad and my fav a marianne design butterfly die. I must blog them.

Thanks for my lovely cards.

i had tons of presents, flowers and drink (hic)
4 presents all require baby sitters so i think those that gave me them should do the baby sitting lol

I have a spa day that has to be booked before sept and it's only mon to fri and hubby can't take any more time off so i will prob take my mum as we haven't done anything like that together before.

Happy Birthday Rusty, hope you have a fab day xxx
