party invitations




I used this fab digi stamp from Karens doodles (thanks Karen aka flourgirl for finding it) for Oliver's party invitations. He is having a movie party at home so this image was perfect. we have the DVD player connected to a projector which projects the film onto the wall opposite so although it is not quite the cinema it is quite impressive! I had to write the details by hand (was going to do them on the computer) but our lovely ds1 whilst using the main computer managed to obtain a major virus from somewhere so OH has been sorting it out all day. We haven't managed to connect my laptop to the printer yet so couldn't use that.




I have been baking!




Idon't bake very often and I'm not the best but a friend of mine makes fantastic muffins which she reckons is all down to a book she has. So I borrowed the book and decided to have a go. they won't win any prizes for presentation but they do taste good! our oven is quite fierce though so must remember to turn it down next time! I made double choc chip and lemon - yummy!

a card at last!


the last few days have been spent making my scrapbook with not much time for anything else. now that is finished I had time to make a card today. this is for Oliver's best friend's birthday.


Beamish museum
















when my parents and brother were here we had a trip to Beamish museum. it is a fab place and recreates life, shops, houses from 1913. they have a bus and tram to travel from one part to another. it was very cold but we all had a great time. the boys loved it - especially the sweet shop! we bought a season ticket so will definately be going back.










valentine box




when I was at Tams' last week I coloured in the image which I mounted on to the little box and filled it with love chocolates. I have to admit that the box was made by Tams had so all credit goes to her!
