Birthday bits....

Thought I would share a slide show of mine and Steven's home made birthday cards, also a my crafty bits I was lucky to have been made/bought for me, oh and my proper 'E' book, lol...

I wish to thank all the people who sent us cards, pressies and birthday wishes, sorry it's a belated thank you, but I've not been too good since....

but am so pleased you can schedule posts on your blog, as I set a load up when I have the time, as it keeps my blog alive when I'm busy, so has come in handy this last month or so... saying that the last 'saying of the week' went out last Saturday, so need to dig out some more, yikes, lets hope I don't repeat myself with them, lol....

Saying of the week...

Life may not be all we want, but it's all we have.

Saying of the week...

Life may be a dull as a cold dinner
but a little laughter makes a tasty sauce

Big KidZ

These were taken at the Mary Rose BBQ in 2009, where not only you have a lovely feast (supplied by the Marriot Hotel), but you can use all the bikes and trike's...

This one is for Sam's album, as her, Matt and Clive were racing round the wet play area on bikes and scooters.

In fact, I'm not sure who enjoyed it the most, but have a pretty good guess, looking at Sam's face, lol...

The paper is wubie prints, 'New Grass', arrows are sizzix 'arrow #2' and cuttlebug, the writing is from sizzix dies 'boys will be boys' and using the DYMO 3D label maker

As usual Steven page makes me smile as Clive and Matt tried to get Steven to ride his own bike, by putting his feet in the pedal holders...

but he was not having any of it, he preferred being rode around on the front and me doing all the hard work, lol...

Again the paper is wubie prints 'New Grass', arrow's from sizzix 'arrow #2' and cuttlebug and the writing is using DYMO 3D label maker and a sizzix decorative strip 'Slobbery Kiss'....

Saying of the week...

Plan your work, then work your plan.

I want cake

These photos still make me smile when I look at them, as it reminds me how good Steven can be with his PECS, when he wants to be.

They were taken on Clive Birthday a couple of years back and as no sooner than Clive had blown out the candle of his Birthday cake, Steven was heading over to his PECS folder, and finding the symbols 'I want cake' and was handing the strip to me before you could say 'Who wants cake?'...

The paper is from Carolees creation's 'Happy Birthday to you', the writing is from the 'slobbery kiss' decorative strip, the rosettes are using papermania 'colossal' paper and the Tim Holtz ' mini paper Rosettes' decorative strip...

The arrows are from the sizzix 'arrow #2' and cuttlebug arrows and lastly the journalling was done using the papermania 'colossal' paper that was used for the rosettes and using the 'journal, circle' decorative strip

Which had the date stamped on the front and the journalling inside.

Saying of the week...

No-one ever ruined their eyesight by looking on the bright side of life.
