Here's what ive been upto !!!!! long post alert lol

Hi folks

i thought as id not shared many crafty things with you id share some other things instead, ive had my first large wedding invite order which has taken alot of time lol, ive only just managed to keep on top of my dt duties,

Anyway here is what ive been doing!!! alex and i made some double choc chip muffins sunday just gone, they didnt crack well on top but they tasted yummy!!!

 Here is a cheeky one of kyle who just turned 3, he goes to bed every night with nemo, which was alex's teddy since he was one, but kyle has grown extremely fond of him so alex gave it to him, isnt that lovely? nemo has to get a kiss and cuddle every night too,

Here is a piccie of my girls night out last weekend, we had a fabulous time, in particular me and my close friend ang as we love our cocktail pitchers lol, it was scrumptious but then at £18 a jug it should be lol,

Here is my hubby and me in the ice bar in london, which we went to in march for our anniversary, it was our 7th anniversary, but we have been together almost 13 years!!!! my where does the time go to hey???

Here is a pic of the funky glasses which are made of ice also, it was minus 7 degrees in the bar and all that purple in tha nack ground was ice too, it was amazing and we shall definately go again,

here is a fab pic of the bar, isnt it gorgeous???

and another of me and daniel,

Ok so if you are a clean freak you may want to avert your eyes lol, this is my eldests bedroom!!!! it was tidy when he went to bed, then when i went in to him the next morning this is what i found!!!!!

it took me over an hour to clean this up again, and some stern words with him to take better care of his things lol

I thought id show a little crafty pic of some of my new stamping up ribbons lol just to show you im here in spirit lol

 So if your still with me lol i know that was alot for you to look at but thought id share my last month with you lol, and boy where you lucky there could have been many more pics for you but i narrowed them down lol

Hi guys, im still here.... LONG POST ALERT lol,

anyway im here with a card to show you which i made for my mums birthday,

Its from some stash ive had for a while but never fails to make a nice card, the dovecraft cupcake papers and decoupage pad!!! i really like them.

Ive layered this one up quite a bit and added extra glitter,

 Here is the complete front view, i havent added lots of bling for a change to this one as i liked it as it was, but i recently got a new martha stewart doily punch which i had to use along with some meiflower satin ribbon,

 I do hope you like it lol. I would love to enter it into a few challenges whilst im here lol,

Now here is one of the reasons ive been so busy ..................... my eldest alex who was 6 in january 1st joined beavers that same week, and after going for 10 weeks or so was finally invested as a fully fledged beaver,

i have had a lot of trouble getting a hobby for alex, something he enjoys doing out of the house or away from me, we tried football/martial arts/swimming classes (which he doesnt love but still does and has recently jumped up a new level)/dance/gymnastics (which he is also trying at the mo and seems to like) lol yep ive tried all those things so imagine the joy that he LOVES beavers!!!!! and its a great thing to love as they learn them how to do lots of great things and be helpful and kind etc etc.

here is a pic of him getting his necker tie which he was really eager to get!!

isnt he teeny weeny lol that jumper is the smallest you can get,

 And here he is proudly holding his certificate!!!! isnt he lovely lol, me and daddy were front row as we made sure to get there early,he now has 4 badges i have to hand sew onto his jumper if i can remember where they all go!!!

So thats my ramblings lol phew!!!!!!

Hope you enjoyed my piccies and like my card, will post again soon as i have more to tell you if you can spare the time with my long post ramblings xxx
