Mixed Up Saturday

 

Good Saturday Morning Ladies,  

We had another chilly day yesterday,  the sun was beautiful though, part of the garden in the shade stayed frost covered all day.   We are forecast a wet and cold weekend,   Soph is off today and wants to go to Costco (Experience has shown that Saturday is not the best idea)!  The things we do for our children!  🤣

I picked up two Poinsettias the last time Lucy and I popped to garden centre,  these ones were reduced to £4, I couldn't resist them because of their colour,  I haven’t seen a Pink Poinsettia before and the variegated leaves really appealed to me, I don't think I've ever had a Poinsettia,  it does sound like they are tricky keep though. 

My Bargain

I love the sentiments and that string of lights, 

All with matching dies!

These lovely Tree stamps & sentiments plus 

Matching dies

The sentiments are really useful too.

The String lights have a matching stencil

Mistletoe sprig stencil with matching die.

Some body was selling the whole collection for £33 posted on a Facebook Destash group,  I really like Gina K stamps as they are great quality,  it's harder to find them here, so I wanted to snap it up!  I'm pretty sure one stamp and die set would be more than that price,  even if I used only the sentiments I'd be happy!  

Karen

Karen has shared her crafty Birthday gifts with us,  WOW Karen that lovely set of Pencils is an amazing gift,  its lovely to know you have every colour you'll ever need !  I have read really good reviews on these pencils too,  I can't wait to see how you get on with them and see what you create.  

That Crackle stencil is great,  a good size too,  I totally recommend that Winsor & Newton Calligraphy ink, its perfect for splatters, less messy the flicking those posca pens.  

Thank you for sharing your birthday gifts with us XXX

Sonia 

Sonia ordered these lovely stamps from Inkylicious,   I really love how the sentiments are worded in all of them.  These are perfect for journal pages too. 

Thank you so much for sharing your lovely stamps with us. XXX

I hope that you all have a great Saturday,  

Love & hugs to all of you,
