The Eggs!!

Double Yolks.

3 eggs =... 3yolks, No!, not in this case... 3 eggs = 6 yolks. a new box of 10 eggs, the I bought yesterday, opened the box & used 3 today & all of them were doubles. I don't think I have ever even had 1 egg with a double before. I wonder if there is any more like that in the box :lol: as you can see the rest of the box looks the same & perfectly normal.

UKS photo comp.

This months competition is above/below. it is for photo's take from above or below, not the usual eye-level pics. I took this lying down on the floor in front of the swing as my middle lad swung high.

Made a card this evening...

I made this this evening. The bottom half is from the DCWV Glitter stack that I bought this evening. I nearly bought it yesterday, but bought a load of other things then, so decided not to. I had to call back into the range this evening for another padlock, so decided I just had to have it. I am so glad I did, it's gorgeous :). The butterfly is a unmounted stamp I bought ages ago. It says the serenity prayer on it. The top pink card I embossed using a Cuttlebug embossing folder ( that came in the post today ). The ribbon is form the little silver hat ribbon kit I buy every month & the greeting trimmed down from a large set I bought from QVC. The card is square, I know it looks slightly squint in the photo it's because I had to just catch the bottom corner under the blind to keep it closed. As well as the Cuttlebug embossing folders ( I got 2, D'vine swirls which I used for the card & a script one ), I also got my melt pot & spare pan delivered today.

Been Spending......

Well It was time for another Spend.... My Mouse wandered over Here.
Last night I ordered myself a Melt-Pot, a spare pan to go inside & couple of Cuttlebug embossing folders. Well the Melt Pot was in the sale & I had some points that needed using up as I had bought my Silhouette from them a while ago. Fancied a Melt-pot for ages, also needed to get the free P & P.
Then this evening after dropping my youngest off at Scout I decided to nip to The Range, well the car was already warm, so was a shame not to go anywhere :lol:
I bought a few items :lol:
namely Several stamp sets, a set of shimmer chalks, a pack of 180 DCWV 12 x 12 papers & a couple of sets of 6 x 6 papers, one was Dovecraft Kids designer set & the other was MM Boho Chic set.
I also made a card this morning, sorry didn't scan it, for my dad as hadn't seen them for a while as they had been on holiday. I also gave my Mum her birthday card. They liked them. I had also bought them a few small presents & bought them a subscription to the National Trust. they were both over the moon with that, hopefully they will be able to make good use of it all year round, especially as they are now both retired & go away so much more now :)

I'm still around :)

OK Sorry I have been neglecting this Blog a little to much. I have just been busy with one thing or another, Eldest son has now left school is just doing his Gcse exams at the moment. As for what crafty stuff I have been doing, well not a lot really, but have re-tidied the craft room today :lol: I did make a card last week for my next door neighbour who has just had a baby girl. here it is :). I was honoured to be able to use a GSD. file from a lady who had made it on UKS so I used my Silhouette to cut it all out.
Me & my Youngest also went away for the weekend camping again. its the 1st time this year, bought a new tent/awning for the car On Sat. ( although it came into Barron's caravans on Friday afternoon, by the time we had managed to get over the place had been shut for about 5-10 Min's ) Still we manged to have a nice time in local country park, so all was not lost, saw some little ducklings to :) Didn't have my camera for the park, just my mobile so took a few photo's on that. Youngest took a few photo's camping, we were blessed by the weather, it was lovely & hot. Had a very enjoyable time :) I have just been on the local camping site & they have also loaded some of the Photo's we took in a separate folder so Here they are.
