Sad day

Today I've been to the funeral of my Aunt. She was married to my Mums brother and was the last of that certain type of relative. She was such a character and a wonderful lady. She had brought up my two cousins on her own as my uncle died very young. She was so thrifty and a wonderful artist, painting a whole dinner service. The service was very nice.
Tomorrow is the last day of term and I'm looking forward to a sleep in on Thursday.

Wedding card and box

I made this card and the exploding boxes for a friend at work who wanted a special card for her sister and new brother in law. She had told me that the bridesmaids were wearing beige dresses. I distressed the edges with antique rose. The box is for little memories from their day ie confetti, name plates etc. I enjoy making people smile. I'll be busy making another for another friend whose son is getting married in September.
I have a busy weekend, car is going in for a rrecall this morning then shopping. Off to see Jason Manford this evening. A long dog walk tomorrow and some h*******k tomorrow.
Counting down the days to the 6 weeks hols and then part time Yeah!

What's in the box

I couldn't wait any longer I had to post these.

Me receiving my goodies

I'm a winner

Today I was the lucky recipient of what I'd say is a treasure chest of crafting goodies.
Graphicus was 10 years old and I made a shadow box with cupcakes on it. This was entered into a competition and I won. YIPEE!!!
It was an open day today and I collected my prize. I waited till I got home and was astounded at the amount of the crafty goodiness inside. I'll be playing for weeks.
I also made a few 'I need purchases'
Joanna Sheens Housework Diva stamp and Tim Holtz Vintage shabby 12x12 papers.
Here's what I've put together tonight.
