Happy 3rd Birthday

Hi everyone!
Definitely an Autumnal feel this morning and it's very foggy at the moment.  After the last couple of days being so lovely I thought it was here to stay for a while but hey ho, it is the end of September!

My friend and I enjoyed our day in Dundee although the only thing I bought was something for our tea last night!  Last of the big spenders eh!

This card is for my neighbours' granddaughter who will be 3 on Christmas Eve!  I know, I'm a bit early but I saw a challenge for numbers on a card so I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone!

Meeting up with one of my other friends today but we've still to decide what we're doing.  I'll keep you posted.
Hugs

Mum to Be

Hello!

I'm running a bit late tonight as I was watching TV!  I was out with a school chum today and we ventured north to Grandtully to The Highland Chocolatier.  I can't believe I'd never heard of it before, let alone been there.  Awesome is the only word I can use to describe it.  You see the choccies being made and readied to be despatched to the likes of Gordon Ramsay, Claridges and Harvey Nics to name but a few so we are talking seriously wonderful stuff.  My dear friend bought me a cone of white chocolate buttons which I'm going to savour.  You will know by now that there would be an eaterie attached which was as delicious as the chocolates.  All in all it was a lovely day out, the sun was shining, it was warm (inside the car) and the scenery beautiful.  I can't believe how late everything is this year, only one more day until May and the trees are just beginning to spring to life.

Anyway, enough waffle for now and onto my card for today.  My daughter asked me to make this card for her department to give to one of their colleagues who is leaving to have a baby.  She knows it's going to be a boy which is why I've made it on the blue tones.  Hope you like!

Off to bed when I've finished this.  Sleep well!

Hugs
