I haven't really felt in a crafting mood lately. It is mainly down to the fact that I am being made redundant. Initially I was upset that the after school club would be closing down but now I am hoping it will be the push I need to go out and get a job that isn't just term time.

I have been to Ikea today. (Well a girl has got to do something to cheer herself up)! They were selling silk hydrangea heads for £4.99 that has hundreds of flowers I can pull apart and use on my cards.

Last Saturday we had a family day out to Twickenham to watch a charity rugby match for help 4 heroes. What a brilliant day. The charity raised over a million. Even though I still keep feeling a bit fed up about losing my job it kind of puts your life into perspective.

Sorry to take so long in posting pics of our holiday in Croatia. I won't put any of me in my costume on in case any of you are eating!

I can't believe I haven't put anything on my blog for so long.

Quick update of my life. School finished at the end of July and I disappeared down to Cornwall for a week. What a wash out. Rain every day except the Sunday which saw us all on the beach getting a beautiful ruby red colour on our shoulders!!

After a week at home we packed the cases and went off to Croatia for a fortnight. Some of the 300 photos we took will follow!!

We have had friends visiting last week. Their gorgeous daughter loves crafting and we spent a few hours doing glittery stuff. What fun.
