Woopee!

Morning!  Wow folks, that's another month of 2012 hit the dust, where does the time go?  We had another busy day yesterday.  In the morning we ordered our new kitchen (the one we have is 20 years old!!!) which will be installed once we are back from Spain so you will no doubt hear all about it at a later date.  After that we went to Callander to pick up my car which is all sorted and thankfully didn't cost me an arm and a leg!

I'm going into town this morning to get some bits and pieces and then to the hairdresser in the afternoon so that I don't have any grey hairs showing when I'm on my holibobs.  After all that I can't see any crafting getting done today but hopefully tomorrow.

Hugs

One for the Boys

I really don't enjoy making male orientated cards but this one actually fell into place quite easily for a change.  Not all men like fancy, flowery valentines so I thought this one fell into the macho category!  Have a good day.

Father's Day

I've had a lovely day today.  My friends and I went to the Corn Exchange in Edinburgh to the Artstamps Scotland Fair.  Needless to say there was much talking, laughing and spending!  Since getting home I've been making Father's Day cards as I've got a stall at Kinross Primary School fete on Saturday.  I'm looking forward to that as we lived in Kinross (many moons ago!) and our son and daughter went to school there.  Here are some of the cards I've made.
