Here's Livvie's home made card. Isn't it lovely?


As I said, Livvie made me a cake. Mum got me something and I'm not telling you what as it's for making presents and I don't know who I'm going to make for so it's a secret! Babs and Mo gave me some squidlies which I'm saving with my other birthday money for a trip to the NEC in March. Mo also bought me a gorgeous lighted twig sculpture thingy. You stand it in a vase and it lights up with tiny LED lights. :0)
Emily bought me an exquisite gift box with a collection of red fabrics in it. I have a project in mind for that already.
Gary bought me 20 local craft lessons. I shall be:
*Making bags & boxes from card
*Using Fimo modelling clays as card toppers and embellishments
*Using paper folding for decoration
*Creating a variety of cards using different techniques
*Working wit mulberry papers
*Scrapbooking techniques
*Decorative painting used as embellishments for paper and cards
For me the classes are as much about getting out and meeting people as learning new techniques. I am very much looking forward to the classes which start in April. :0)
I broke my strict diet for a Pizza Hut lunch and shall try and claw back some points during the rest of the week.
We didn't do much as I have had a very bad back these past few weeks and couldn't stand a day out, but I'm sure we'll make up for it another time!
