Good Morning Ladies,

We have a lovely selection of crafts and shopping again this week, so I will get straight on with the show........

Janet
Janet has shared  two fantastic craft items with us this week the first is at the top of the post today, 3 stunning paintings and the second is a beautiful Watercolour Notebook, that front cover is stunning Janet!
I will add Janet's description below....

"The notebook is a watercolour memory book. As you can see I've decorated the front cover and shown a page inside.
The three little pictures are watercolours. I used Crafter's Companion Fairy/Wishes stamps and coloured them with Spectrum Noir Aqua colour and Sparkle pens."

Thank you so much for sharing your crafts Janet.

    Morning Ladies

    What a fantastic selection of crafts & goodies today.
    I’m looking forward to using both my gifts-just need a little spare time which I don’t have right now. I’m meant to be going to give blood this afternoon but my Sciatica has flared up again so I’ve taken a few painkillers so I’ll need to rearrange the appointment. Hubby wants to go to the hospital this afternoon so we can relax at home this evening and we’ll have all day tomorrow to catch up with some chores.

      Hi Michele
      Love the record sleeve card and your presents.
      I tried silk painting at the NEC awhile ago. Decided I wasn’t much good at it.
      Hope your visit to see your FIL went well this afternoon.

    Morning Everyone
    What a lovely mix of crafting we have this morning. Some of that shopping looks really interesting and I cannot wait to see some results.

    We have a sunny start here which is good as we're off on our usual Saturday shopping trawl.

    The CAFE is up and running already this morning for anyone who wishes to pop in and have a look.
    HUGS should have arrived with you all by now.

    Have a good Saturday xxxx

    Good morning Sandra & ladies
    Lovely selection or craftiness this morning. I love my new stamp set looking forward to using it. The glue gun is great it has 150 foot of tape on it I was fed up with the small tape runners just run out so quickly. I saw one they was selling on Hochanda in the week. So I looked on eBay & found this one I bought the refill as well so think 300ft of tape will last me ages.
    MICHELE love your birthday gift look forward to seeing what you create. Have you done any silk painting before? Sorry your sciatica has visited you again.
    JANET your water colour note book is lovely & the stamps you have coloured are beautiful.
    DANNIE I love the little dress you have made for your daughter she is adorable.
    WOW LILIAN your bag is gorgeous your very talented beautiful fabric colour's.
    KAREN love your cards especially Oscar's birthday card.
    MARGARET you have some lovely Stamping Up shopping love all the stamp sets. You will have lots of fun playing with them all. Your cross stitch card for Penny is beautiful.
    Not sure what the weather is doing at the moment it's quit dark & still windy.
    Not up to much today I have some ironing & CU is going to cut the grass front & back. I have still got to put some bits on EBay. Then send Sandra the pictures of my recycle challenges.& maybe some crafting.
    Just had a call from Darren to see if we wanted to meet up with them in Hastings. So better get in shower.
    Love Lynda xx

      Enjoy your stamps Lynda. I’ve just read your comment down below so I wonder what happened to your AA membership. Glad that CU managed to get home. Good job you weren’t on your way or in Hastings. We visited Hastings when we stayed in Eastbourne 1 year. Unless it’s changed drastically it wouldn’t be at the top of my list to visit again. It was very run down and that was just the seafront. Mind you that was on a 2nd of January.

    Hi all,
    A gorgeous lot of Saturday goodies. Everyone's been really busy making and buying. All of it is lovely.
    Lynn's coming home early so we can watch THE wedding together which will be lovely.
    Helens op went OK but sadly the surgeon found something else to worry about which means another operation and then radio therapy. It never seems to end.
    Hope you all have a lovely day whatever you're up to.Hugs to poorly friends.
    Love Valx

    Well we didn't get to go to Hastings.Terry went to pets at home first as Bailey has been scratching himself rather a lot. He rang me as he couldn't get the car started & asked me to ring the AA As He didn't have his mobile on him ( never blooming got it ) so I rang them they couldn't find him on their screen his membership didn't run out till 27th so after giving them our last three post Code they said the membership no isn't registraing so I had to rejoin & had to pay £133 now for them sending roadside out to him.
    Then it's £7.99 a month anyway they had to tow him home as the starter motor has gone. In a way God job we weren't on our way to Hastings.!!!
    Now he's cutting the front & back garden.
    Love Lynda xx

      Oh Lynda what an annoying and expensive day you've had. Hope its not too expensive to get the car fixed. Sending hugs for a better day tomorrow.xx

      Hi Lynda
      I hope you manage to get your car fixed soon and it’s nit to expensive.
      Petes very up and down at the moment thank you very much for the hugs. He even nodded off 3 times that I know of when we went to see the Illegal Eagles 🦅 on Thursday. Not to sure if we’re going to get answers either at the hospital on Tuesday.

    Hi Sandra andladies
    Not to sure what happened to my post this morning.
    What a fabulous array we have today. Love them all.
    Rich came to finish our doors off today. Putting handles on etc. What a fantastic job he’s done on them as well. Quite expensive but well worth the money.
    Well as usual my SIL in Bournemouth emailed my SIL in Australia and gave her all the details of the wedding arrangements. Gill emailed her back and said that Australia and probably most of the world had had blanket coverage over the last few weeks.
    Bryan Pete’s brother in Australia has MSA which apparently if I have the initials correct is a rare form of Parkinson’s. So she’s also emailing Gill to tell her what the Drs ought to be treating him. I think Gill is getting a bit peeved off with her to tell the truth. When my SIL tells me what our weather is like I usually tell her yes I know I can look out of our window and see what it’s like. She still does it though.
    Enough of my soapbox rankings I’ll put it back in the corner and shut up.
    Gentle hugs for all who need one today.
