Happy Birthday to me…..

Just signing in to say I haven’t died of the flu but I have been pretty much off my game for the past week. Still coughing like a hag but not feeling as awful as I was!

Anyhoo, it’s my 36th birthday today so am waiting to be pampered and treasured…. Erm, still waiting…. erm, anyone?

Managed to make a bunch of cards the other day as all mine got given to the fair which put me back at square one! Hubby has told me I can go off and spend 50 squid on crafty stuff so am considering some Nestabilities. Have already asked for the circle ones for christmas but can’t decide between the ovals or the squares? Course, the rectangles look quite useful too. Anyone got any suggestions?

Chipboard tree decorations

Although I had to miss half of it (hmmph) I went to the Wirral scrapcrafters “All day crop” on Saturday. It was lovely to see everyone again as I haven’t been able to get along for AGES. Something always seems to be on which stops me from getting there. Anyway, one of the challenges was to alter a chipboard tree (Kaiser crafts I think it was). It was great – I did two! I haven’t managed to get a decent photo of the second one yet but here is the first one I did. It goes lovely in my kitchen although Chris was none-too-pleased about the nail I stuck in the freshly plastered wall!!!

Pictures as promised.

I am feeling slightly more normal (if that is possible) today so have come to post some pics of the cards that I received. I hope I have attached the correct names to the pictures – my system bagan to fail on me towards the end!!

KatyMouse and Ffroggie (UKS)


Cath (Coreysmum)

I also received some beutiful cards from Jacqui (UKS – Morgana le Fey) but they arrived just as I was going out the door on Saturday morning. Sorry I can’t show you them but they were amazing. Thank you Jacqui.

If I haven’t put your name next to your cards then please let me know – I managed to lose track with a couple of the parcels and got confused as to who sent them. Please don’t be offended and I’ll correct it asap!
