Well, Well, Well....

what a few weeks I've had.  It seems to be the same old story with me about being busy and running around after the boys and this time is no different but last week I was out EVERY night with different things and I was shattered!!!  Thankfully we have had a nice quiet weekend with no football today so I am feeling slightly more refreshed!!!!

I do also seem to have lost my mojo in amoungst all the chaos.....I really don't have much to show for all the time I have been away!
Its my great nephews (I'm not that old...honest!) 1st Birthday this week.  My nephew is a gorgeous lad in every way, I have often told my sister that if my two boys end up half as good as her son I will be happy. Anyway, Harry is one this week and he is having a little party that we have all been invited to so we'll be celebrating next weekend.

Here is the card I have made.  I have recently purchased the Owl Builder punch after seeing some really lovely creations with it so here is my first attempt.....

It has turned out differently to how I pictured it but quite happy with my first try and I'm sure Harry will love it!!!!!
I have made a teddy bear card for the boys to give him, I'll try and post that one tomorrow.

The C word is fast approaching and we are getting there although the boys lists are shocking with some really bizarre requests, Aaron has a countdown app on his ipod so I am often told how long they have yet!!!

Thanks for stopping by and for your patience,
Take care

Thank you cards...

That time again.......  After a birthday there is always quite a few thank you cards to make.  I tried to make them all different last year but gave that idea up very quickly....

We have a friend in the RAF and we were lucky enough to be invited to an employee (and guests) only family day on Elliots birthday.  We were able to walk around lots of aircraft and the boys were able to sit in some, it was great.  There was also an airshow which seemed to go on most of the day and included the magnificent Red Arrows....

The weather looks dreadful but it was pretty good really.

Anyway, back to the thank you cards.  I had a little production line going yesterday and although they are all made, the battle will be getting the little monkey to write them all!!!

Very simple but age appropriate.....

They are postcard style using the Up, Up away set and some cord I had to make the string for the balloon.  I haven't left a huge area so he won't need to write too much!!!

Thanks for stopping by,
Take care
