Saturday 15th October

Morning, hope everyone's had a good week and a relaxing weekend. Got a bit to do this weekend, got to sort cards out for 2 classes, a profilo to hand in as i've been asked to do some more classes in the community (looking forward to that).
My little Granddaughter was 2 on Wednesday and she was spoilt with everything she got, her mam said she only needed clothes, so i bought her loads of clothes and no birthday is complete without toys so we bought her some Peppa Pig toys, she loves anything to do with Peppa Pig.
Andrew, Megan and Makenzy are away out to help at "Peter Pan 50th Birthday" (it's a charity for children/adults who never grow up) i made a pile of cards for them to sale to raise money to help them out.
Postie's just been and brought me some more Copic Sketch pens, got 10 last week and another 10 this week, at the moment Sirstampalot have them on offer for £3.50 and on a Friday they do a freebie, if you spend over £35 you get a freebie. last week i got a set of Santa stamps and this week i got Magnolia "Dancing Queen Tilda", couldn't pass that one as i love Magnolia stamps.

Saturday 8th October

Evening All, had a busy week, and plenty more to do next week.
Being sitting colouring in my Magnolia Tilda and Edwin images, so i have plenty done to make cards, means i can pick which ever i feel like doing.
Going to be making cards for "Peter Pan 50th birthday" Peter Pan is a group of mam's that have decided to set up a group for the children/adults that never grow up (that's why they picked the name, as Peter Pan never grow up).
We've been having our grandchildren Thomas and Sophie on a Monday and Tuesday so i don't get much done on them day.

Sunday 2nd October 2011

Evening, what a weekend i've had. Andrew decided to change rooms around this weekend and that ment my craftroom as well, so i've got a new craftroom, almost finished by tomorrow it will be all done. Can't wait till i can start crafting again in my own room, it's not the same trying to do it in the dinning room, you always forget something and have to stop until you get it (or in my place until someone gets it for me).
Got cards to make for birthdays for the family, a special one for our granddaughters 2nd birthday on 12th Oct, and going to make some candles up presents for Christmas, also got to make somethings up The Peter Pan's 50th Birthday (it's a place that was set up for children who never grow up, they get no help and rely on peoples help)on 15th Oct.

Saturday 24th Sept 2011


Morning Everyone, had a busy week, had hospital, doctors, OT and my new hoist delivered. Got my new hoist delivered yesterday so it will help Andrew, as it can move me for chair to chair etc depending where i want to go, get a ceiling one for the upstairs, but got to wait for that one (but it is getting there slowly).
Haven't had time to do much this week, have made a Betty Boop birthday card, Tilda christmas card and 2 other christmas cards. Must get Andrew's birthday card made for 27th Sept, just not sure what i want to do just yet, thought i'll have a look around on blogs and pages today for some ideas.
Lets see what i find

Sunday 18th September 2011

Afternoon, haven't done any crafting this weekend as not having a good weekend. In bed as I write this, had a bad night, pain really bad today. Can't really craft anyway at the minute, Andrew's decided to swap kids bedrooms around and also move my craft room around so it will be easier for me, Haven't looked not sure if I should lol. I'm missing not being able to craft, think it's the only think that stops me from getting to stressed (well we do have 9 kids and 3 grandchildren, so need something)lol.
Anyway had a busy week, had a meeting on Monday with Council about the community centre I teach at and then we had 2 big meeting on Thursday with Council, Planning and people in the area about the new community that we are getting built, very nice and posh. We will not have it for 15 months and having to work from different location, which hasn't been easy with the old ladies that do the keep fit, I have found a room in the local school for them, but the time and day has had to be changed.

Tuesday 13th Sept

Evening, had a busy day today, i've had to make 13 cards for my mother in-law for tomorrow, i'm glad most of them were just one layer cards as she has to post them, i don't mind doing them, but i never feel like i've done much and don't really like making them like that as i always feel like there is something missing (embellishments, flowers, gems, pins etc).
Thinking about popping along to my local craft shop Papercuts, in Whitley Bay tomorrow as there having a demo day 10.00am till 4.00pm, so there will be plenty going on.
