Newbury Show

Me and my friend Anne popped over to the Newbury show on Saturday. Didn't need anything (other than some cut and dry foam) but managed to find a few other bits. I'm looking foward to using the Kanban toppers. (They are seconds but are still scrummy).

Bank holiday fun

Last weekend I went up to Northamptonshire to visit the Crick boat show with my mum and dad. Whilst there we went over to visit Daventry. This photo shows my parents and above their heads is the flat they first lived together in. It hasn't changed a bit in 40 odd years.

New toy

Look what I had to buy last week. I have been getting used to it as I have never had a Cricut before. I must say it is very easy to work. Here are some cards I have made using it.

The cake was cut from American alphabet and the stamp shaped mat is in the decals cartridge.

I cut the stars with the essentials cartridge and the words were in Just a note.

This one was inspired by a card Joanne Kill had made. (Can't remember which magazine it came from). The butterfly was cut from American alphabet. The border, circle and flower were cut with essentials.

The brolly was cut with just a note as was the message. The mat the words are on is from essentials. (I trimmed it down).

Easter time

Here are a couple of pictures of us enjoying the sun over the Easter holidays when we went to Teignmouth.

And the bad daughter award goes to...

Sorry dad for not phoning and wishing you happy birthday. No excuses. It just totally slipped my mind that I hadn't phoned. However I did send you a poem text so I can't be all bad!! I bet the Poet Laureate is worried.
