Thought you might like to see some cards I have made and sent to people as I don't seem to do much sharing.




My feet are killing me!! Yesterday I went to Ally Pally with a friend and we walked miles looking for bargains. I have always gone on a Saturday before and found it very busy. Yesterday it seemed quite quiet. Not sure if it is because Sundays are quieter or if people are cutting back on spending. I bought a few bits but wasn't planning on getting much. Photo to follow.

I have been following the progress of Craft fairys craft room. How gorgeous and I don't have room envy at all no not one bit!!! She also has some prima flowers blog candy. Very scrummy. If you have a spare hour or two have a nosey at her blog.

I thought it was about time I put something crafty on my blog so here is my recipe box I have just finished. It started life as a card index filing box. I painted the edges with acrylic paint made for metal and gave it a slight distressed look with sepia versafine ink applied with a sponge. I cut out panels from some K and Company paper and distressed the edges then stuck them onto the box with modge podge. When it was dry I sealed it with another coat of modge podge and then added a few embellishments and stamped the title.

We have just got back from a lovely week in Wales. Here are a few of our holiday snaps.
We are back from holiday in Wales. Had a great time but the worst thing is not having access to the internet. I have spent a few hours checking up on what all my blog buddies have been up to. Here is a link to some candy I have found.

At the beginning of June Dale had his leavers ball. I can't believe he has finished school. It only seems 5 minutes since it was Craigs.
