Can't Wait

Morning All, well I'm now out of hospital and trying to get back to normal (whatever that is lol). Didn't have a very nice time in hospital and a bit of a shock, I went in with pains in my stomach and was told it was a infection and discharged after a week, then ended back in after only 3 days to find out it wasn't an infection, I had a blockages, so went down for my op, told it would be a 30 minutes, but ended up 3 1/2 hours, in which Andrew (hubby) wasn't told this and was worried sick as I wasn't out after 30 miutes and nobody to say why. When I came out I was told there had remove half of my bowel as it was twisted and I had 4 blockages and they did start with keyhole, but ended up with a full op, cut from my right side across to my belly button (not very comfortable).
That was a week ago, my holes from the keyhole are healing great, but not my large cut, they think I might be getting an infection, so having it done everyday to keep an eye on it.
I've done loads of colouring in images for cards, but can't sit at my desk at the minute to make cards (which i'm itching to do).

Megan's 8th Birthday Cake


Hi, just thought I would add a pic of Megan's birthday cake I made today. I've never made a birthday cake before, so i was suprised at how it has turned out. I did have a bit of help (well if that's what you can call it) from Makenzy, he licked the bowl clean and any little bits i didn't need he had lol.
love Paula x

Made a Towel Cake




Hi, I've seen a lot of people making nappy/towel cakes as presents for people and thought they look really nice, so as a Christmas gift for a friend i decided i would make my very first one. After watching different ways of making them on You Tube i got everything i thought i needed and off i set away making one, after a while i was happy with what i had made. I used a bath sheet and a bath towel for the cake itself and add a scarf around the bottom one to hold it together and a ribbon to go with the colours for the top one. As you can see i have added flowers, these are bath flowers and can be added to the bath and then i got some clear film which i wrapped it in added a bow which i thought just set if off.

Hope To Craft Tomorrow


Hi All, well i've never did any crafting since the snow came, might be i haven't had any classes running either, but all will be different tomorrow as i'm running the classes again and sorted loads out to make plenty of cards. Must of made about 50 Christmas cards but still got loads to make (that's what happens when you know to many people lol).
I'm making candles with images on for Help The Heros, it's times like this that we must remember them all. I am adding a small card with the following words and the images that i am putting on them. There gift wrapped for £5

Remember this Christmas, when you're eating your dinners, smiling and laughing,
that in another house there's an empty chair where a hero should be sitting,
they gave up their life so you can sit with your family,
so light a candle for the heroes that did not make it back,
and for those still serving out there!!
