Thank you...

We've been falling like flies in the gingerbread house in the last week..now poor
Jem is down and out..not much fun in your last week of school holidays :(
I'm feeling pretty good now..thanks for all you sweet get well wishes..they really
mean a lot to me.. it's always great to know people out there care and I've so
enjoyed catching up on many blogs today...I can't believe how much I missed!

I have more thank-you's to deliver...firstly to the lovely Shannon from Faith
and Chocolate for the gorgeous goodies I won in her blog give-away recently..

The little album has lots of little pockets and tags to add notes and was handmade by
this very clever lady.. The sweet little butterfly circle on the left is actually a bottle
cap with a mirror on the inside... Thanks so much Shannon! :D

I was very grateful to receive a couple of awards during the last week..
Thank you to Tara from Days Missed on a Hammock and also Suzanne from
Create Fun and Mess for this one..I love visiting your blogs too!



it was a lovely surprise to get this Tree of Happiness Award from Jackie at My World



Thank you Jackie!..here is a list of things making me happy today..

1. Having Rhiannon back home after a couple of days at my parents..I missed her!
2. The beautiful spring bulbs I can see through the window.. can't stop looking at them
3. Watching an old favourite movie with Jem on the couch The Neverending Story
I love it when my girls enjoy the same movies I did as a child
4. My new pendants which arrived in the mail today..see below :D
5. Listening to the wind and rain outside and being cosy near the fire
6. Knowing there is a big pot of pumpkin soup already cooked for tomorrow night

I am passing this on to anyone who would like to play along..I'd love to
hear what's making you happy.. :D

..and here is a card I made yesterday and entered into a competition at
Tarisota..to make a thank you card..I would have liked something a little more
flash but I wasn't feeling crash hot.. oh well..another card to add to my stash
at least..always handy to have some thank you cards put aside  :D





..and if you're still with me.. here is my first etsy purchase which arrived today from
the US...They are from Home Studio..I can see more orders on the horizon! :D



aren't they adorable? and even better when you see the reverse side..



I found it hard to stop at buying just 3 (it was a buy 2 get one free offer LOL)
Wishing everyone a happy week..back in a day or two Gx
