💜💛❤Happy Birthday Lynda ❤💛💜

Good Morning Ladies

Ladies I know that you all want to join me in wishing Our Very Special Friend Lynda an Extra Special Happy Birthday xxx

I hope that you have an amazing day my lovely, maybe we can have a phone chat if you aren't too busy celebrating!  I hope you get to eat some yummy cake too, I know that Terry (aka Captain Underpants) will treat you like a Queen.  I also hope that you have balloons and streamers hanging on your walking frame!!  teeeheee🤣🤣🤣

I was just messing about in my craft room yesterday as I am suffering a bit after the weekends travels, so I decided to use up some scraps from my over-flowing Bit Box to make some embellishments.
The theme of this months Swap over on our Facebook Group is making Embellishments, so I thought I would use some scraps of card to make some Rosettes and Paper Bows to use as an inspiration photograph to launch the Swap.

I used some Sue Wilson Bow dies for the bows of various sizes and the Heart Rosettes were made by cutting a template for the straight edged Hearts and a Curved Edger Die from Spellbinders was used for the fancy edged Heart Rosette.
I displayed all three sets on Spellbinders Detailed Scalloped Rectangle die cuts.  (I love this die).

I think that these would make great little sets to go on a Sale Table, as they are perfect for decorating a gift bag or box, have cost you very little yet look quite effective.

It was lovely to read that you had arrived and unpacked and are ready to relax, it will be lovely to spend some real quality time together, life can get so busy, especially having someone as kind and caring as you and Jim, you like to help people so having a good chunk of quality time to yourselves will be a real treat, particularly being somewhere you both love, although I am sure that Jim will find lots of projects to keep him busy!  Is he a man that likes to sit and read and relax, or does he prefer to keep busy, getting his relaxation from creating lovely things that improve your little paradise home?.

Lilian, I look forward to seeing your challenge card this week my lovely, I am sure it must be getting very busy around you now, with all the holiday makers pouring in, I know Paul's parents struggle to do the simple things like going Grocery Shopping and attending appointments as the roads get so clogged up with Tourists (in Brixham).
I thought of you as I saw the Tennis today, I pictured you all settled in with your bowl of Strawberries and cream ready to watch tennis all day, you enjoy it my lovely xxxx

Right I am off into my Craft Room, I must also call the hotel that a few of us are meeting up in in Watford to see if we would be able to have a table to craft on (if we clean up our mess) lol.

Have a lovely day my lovelies,

Love and hugs to all of you,

Sandra
