I wandered lonely as.....

... a really happy bunny.
Smirk Christmas range has arrived on my website and I am thoroughly thrilled with the response!!!!! I think it is all marvellous and I have brought some bits on holiday with me to play with.




I especially love the die-cut decoupage pad. I will list some piccies when they are done.

It seemes to be the time for wedding cards and my friend, Keeley, order several all within the space of 2 weeks!!!!!

The sun has got his hat on...

HIP, HIP, HIP HOORAY.

What a gorgeous day we've had here!!!! The start of half term and bank holiday couldn't have had a better start. I have been so busy with school and the website that I've had no time at all to make any cards so hopefully I'll get some done this week. Alice, my daughter, is booked into the school playscheme for 2 days so hopefully I'll get to finally play with some of the stamposaurus stamps.

I really must try to make some more mini-scrapbooks. The oriental one i used to do always went down well but yet so much to do and to little time!!!!!!

I'm so pleased I spotted...

... the Stamposaurus stand at the NEC.

We were on our way out of the NEC when I stopped a small stand with clear stamps on. After a fantastics chat with Kevin Harvey we knew we had to stock their new range of stamps. They arrived this week and they are absolutely fan-fairy-tastic!!!!



My personal favourite is 'Scarie' the gorgeous scarecrow from the Apple Blossom Farm Collection.

I shall be making some cards with them over the next few weeks and will get them on here in a vain attempt to blow my own trumpet!!! But I know all my followers could do so much better!!!!!

Ooooooh I could....

...crush a grape. to

I am so excited, which considering recent events is a miracle. After visiting the Stitches Trade show in February, we have finally taken delivery of a new stock of Stamposaurus Stamps. So tomorrow I shall spend the day attempting to get them on the website!!!!

Also looking forward taking delivery of the new Lawrence Llewellyn Bowen Papers etc in July!!!!! They are rich and sumptuous designs and absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!

A sad day for me

Sadly my good friend, Simon Wade Grant, passed away on Good Friday. We began scouting together here in Hinckley and have been good friends ever since. His wife Maxine, son Ayrton and daughter Venesia are very close to me with Venesia being my baby bridesmaid 7 years ago.





I'm not a great scrapbooker but will be putting together some of the photos as a gift for his family.



R.I.P Simon. Good night and God bless!!
