Wet and miserable here today, kids are both in school so i have some peace.

I'm doing some crafting this morning and tidying up this afternoon, might attemp to make a cake to as it's dereks birthday - happy birthday xx

Im debating wether or not to but a set of the skin tone copics...... :S

Have a nice day

WOW....

I won a mystery prize from cathy's blog, i can't believe it, im made up, never won anything in blog land before :)

I dont know what it is but i think that makes it more fun :)

Eloise was off school from monday and back in on thursday as she was unwell and i think Kobe is coming down with it now, he's not himself and is feeling sick. He says he's fine but i dont think he is.

It's very windy here today, not that warm either. 

Hope the weather is better for the weekend!

Ive done this card for ellies friend who likes bagpuss but i dunno if it's missing something, any suggestions? 

A new project....

My cousin was getting rid of these and i got them before they got smashed up!!

I was thinking of painting them and putting some plants in them, what do you think?

Any ideas to help me along the way????

My crafting space......

Here is my craft room (also my bedroom)

It's not very exciting but it does me :)

We have 2 tall plastic draws which are great for storing stuff in, my old dressing table with a kitchen worktop on to make it bigger and it doesn't matter if i make a mess!!

Under that theres more plastic draws which i store my 12x12 paper in and some blank cards. 

We have my printer in the corner with the lamp and some papers, my pull out desk (which is never in as its always a mess but handy if i need any more floor space!)

Lastly we have a toy storage thing which i use to keep my cards in :)

Have a look on carlz cards for a chance to win some candy :)

Hello for tuesday

Hello all,

Well i havent been doing much crafting recently, done some act's but thats about it. 

On friday morning, it was my aunts funeral, she died of cancer at age 60.

The kids bought some mothers day gifts from school too so they were made up :) They gave me them on sunday, a box of roses and some bath salts.

On friday evening derek and i went out for a lovely meal and came home and had some wine, it was a really nice evening, made a change to staying in! :)

Over the weekend Eloise has come down with something, shes been off school the past few days so we've been stuck in the house. It's been a LONG day already here but i think shes going back in tomorrow, she seems fine now.

Just wishing i wasn't feeling so tired.
