5 Milestones and Beyond

'Where did the time go?' must be one of the most used phrases ever and it's something we have all said at least once. This weekend I have overdosed on it! Yesterday was my grandaughter's 5th birthday and during the day I caught myself either thinking or say those immortal words. And I don't know where the time has gone - such a lot has changed. Some good things and some not so good - all the stuff that adds up to life's rich tapestry. As we watched Annabel and her friends dancing at her birthday party I realised that, like a camera, our brain takes snapshots of our lives and replays it in the form of memories. We then replay these to comfort us, cheer us or even to shed a tear over - but it's as though we have a huge filing cabinet that we dip into according to our mood.

So, filed under 'M' I would like to share some memories to celebrate my grandaughter's birthday.
What's in your filing cabinet?

P.S. I'll be back later with some photos of the birthday card I made for her, plus a sneeky peek of something coming soon.

A little bit excited

Well, here we are mid-summer and it is absolutely pouring down! I suppose we should expect it from the British climate, but really.

Anyway, once again I've been absent but there is a good reason.. I have been hard at the designing thing. I have put together a few digital and printable kits and guess what?... the first one was released today over on the Chocolate Baroque website. And yes I'm just a little bit excited - as I am rather pleased with how they have turned out, I hope you all are too. I'm putting a little sneaky peek on here, but if you have time please pop over and see what you think (you'll find all four sets in the printable downloads category). It's one thing to design a product, but I need to know if I'm on the right track. There are also lots of other lovely products on there including some fab stamp promotions and it's free p+p on UK (mainland) deliveries all this weekend, well worth it.
I am hoping to be able to show some things I have made with the kit very soon, in the meantime I hope you are crafting to your heart's content and that life is being kind to you all.

Until next time

Lesley
