Here you are girls, a quick reminder


SWIRLS AND PEARLS

You can use Swirly papers or embossing or die cuts, swirly bling or even Swirly Stitching and Pearls'

It can be a card, ATC, Scrapbook page or a project, that should give you plenty of scope
The challenge will run for the usual 2 weeks until JULY 8th with a small prize for the winner.

I look forward to your entries so come on girls get your creative streak going. xx[/QUOTE]

Morning all ... Sorry I haven't popped by in a while things have been manic and I am making the most of my time with the kiddies whilst the weather is nice.

Most of you have seen the pics of the colouring class I did on sat, it was with Bev Rochester and I am amazed that I can colour like that, just need lots more practice and keep on trying and I should be able to apply it to any image! had such a laugh and kept getting told off for being heavy handed! I was the youngest there and some of the other ladies sitting around me were lovely!! pics on my blog if anyone wants a nosey and hasnt seen!

Glittermum - your card drive arrived on saturday, thankyou.

Anyone else still have one in the postal system as I want to post them tomorrow?? I did ask for a cut off of July 1st so already a couple of days out. There is still one who never put anything inside so I have no idea who it is from? Please PM me/email me if yours is still on its way and I will hold off until wednesday but I really could do with getting them posted to The-Wife. Thanks to everyone who has sent a card.

Today is the dreaded weigh day, I am not going to like it today as I had an 8llb loss last week but the heat kills me and I hold onto water, plus I have been naughty a couple of times as OH has been home since thursday night! I bet I have a gain! whoops! I guess I will find out in the next 50 mins when boots opens and the monkeys are at school!

Hope everyone has shining sun and a fabby day!

Lizalloardes I had that happen to me once only they damaged my suitcase on the way there, it was fun trying to carry a suitcase with a broken handle (pre wheelie suitcase days)

Marg Me and OH try and go on bike rides two or three times a week, I always go country lanes if I can as big roads and cars scare me

Rusty Good luck at the weigh in, I am sure you will be fine

Trying to get some crafting done but am on nights so have no time at all, I have christening gifts to make, wedding card and birthday cards
no spendy elves here have had to replace camera charger and made the mistake of reading some how to camera books so have brought some extra needed (even though I don't know how to use them:o) extras

Don't forgot to enter my candy this week, ends on Sunday x

Anyone else seen the new Promarker nibs? I've ordered some to try them out.

Rusty, I am dead jealous of you being taught to colour properly, so glad you had a good time, you were taught by the master x

Liza, that's awful news about your cases, glad you had a lovely holiday x

For those of you not on Facebook, Choccy has become a grandma, everyone is well and Taylor is beautiful x

We've got a meeting at school tonight about DS2 starting in September - eekkk, I'm just not ready to be without children yet. Hopefully we'll find out who his teacher will be and the date when he will start. I've started buying bits of uniform already to try and spread the cost as it is soooo expensive.

My new dishwasher arrives on Wednesday :j I for one can't wait

Best go, bathrooms to clean

I have tried and failed to enter your candy and it just doesn't show up! I should have been number 70 and then tried again to be 72? but neither is showing up! oh well

I loved it mrs, it was so much fun. Coloured in an image today using blues and greens for my LCI project tomorrow! looks good, got covered in sansador though lol whoops!

I noticed all the things about OH's putting things in perfectly into the dishwashers ... I kept my mouth closed though cause when OH does it, he puts everything in there the wrong way ... so I take it all out and put it in the right place LOL

Madfrog - hope you get your crafting done

I lost 2llb this week, so 10llb in 2 weeks and 4 still to lose before my holiday in 6 weeks!! ... should be easy going!

Thanks flourgirl. I'll add some pearls to the card I made yesterday and stick it on my blog!

If we are having a Monday weigh-in, I've lost 3ib in total now since last Monday, i've been a bit exuberant over the weekend but tried to stick to my max calories, which has obviously paid off.
