I needed to inject some colour into January so here is my (cheeky) paint sampler card: Craft supplies: Another variation on the theme, made last year, slightly bigger punch but with Papermania coloured card: Count them, yes there are 40! Always a favourite – butterflies and shades of the same colour grouped together. Emma x
Last weekend’s weather in West Yorkshire was gorgeous, a little glimpse of autumnal sun and warmth. We made the most of it here, drinking up every last available ounce of vitamin D. My little one helped me dismantle the garden furniture and we put it away for the winter. He’s very handy for a 3…
This is a special request card I made a few weeks ago for a 30th birthday. Now the birthday girl has received her card, I am sharing it with anyone interested! I remember being very hung up on turning thirty, now I’m about to turn forty… Older and wiser hey?! I decided to go for…
There’s no surer sign of summer coming to an end than the heating going back on and yes, we’ve passed that marker in our house! Anyone else?? Hubby has even gone back on hot water bottle duty a couple of times. Summer of ’14 appears to have exhausted itself funnily enough at the same time…
Would desperately like to blog tonight but for the last few days I have been starting to have some trouble with the switch from one antidepressant to another (SNRI to SSRI) and it is beginning to wear me out. I am getting some bothersome withdrawal symptoms from my latest reduction of the SNRI which is…
Happy Sunday! Hope everyone is enjoying the sun, it’s been very hot here in Yorkshire. A little too hot for our little one perhaps, as after two full days of being out and about enjoying the weather he developed a fever yesterday tea-time and was complaining he was cold and wanted to rest. He refused…
Mid-week again, crikey! Feeling much better this week too, thankfully, a bit more ‘with it’, if you know what I mean. Had a fabulous time at the weekend at the Great Northern Papercrafts Extravaganza in Harrogate, it was better than Christmas with 40 craft suppliers under one roof! It was a little bit bonkers first…
A banging fuzzy head and time that goes faster than the speed of sound has limited my writing ability this evening. I would however like to share a card I made in the middle of a difficult day. It is a birthday card for a friend that I’ve not seen in far too long, in…
We seem to have double trouble in our house at the moment – a fiercely independent two year old who insists on doing everything himself (which is usually the hard and very very slow way) and a fiercely defiant four year old who just refuses to do anything asked or expected of him, preferring to…
Finally a bit of frost! The boys keep wistfully eyeing up their redundant sledges, patiently waiting for the day they can take them out. We had a great time in the snow last year as it was the first proper snowfall they’d both seen. It kept them entertained for as long as their fingers could…
