Miss You, Dad.

Morning all, 
Thanks so much for popping in. 
Today is a difficult day for me and my family as we say 
Goodbye to my beloved Dad. 

I am sat here having a brew before we set off.
I know so many of you have been through this and I am so thankful for all your good wishes, 
love and support. 






I just wanted to share one photograph with you. 
This is the last one that we had taken together. 
Six months ago we had no idea what we had in store, but at least we nurse him to the end .
He had his wish and passed on in his own home. 





We have Little Robin broach pins to wear today. 


Take care everyone.

Much love and hugs

Lavinia class in Plymouth

Hi everyone, thanks so much for popping in today.
I hope you had a lovely weekend.

We travelled to Plymouth, where on Saturday I had a Lavinia workshop. 
It was an emotional day for me, but the fabulous crafters really looked after me and we had an amazing time. 




Thanks so much Nikki for inviting me and organising the day.

We have traveled in our little van..or Mega Van as Elliot and Jenson call it. 
So we are now staying at a campsite in Bude for a couple of days…
I must admit it is very cloudy and windy,,,but I’m not complaining 
It is lovely to have some time to relax and Eric is enjoying lots of walks and fresh air.





Take care all.
Much love and hugs

June Challenge - Celebration

Welcome to June and to a new Lavinia Challenge. 
Our new theme is 
Celebration 

Here is my inspiration for you, I do hope 
that you like it. 







I started by using some of my new ink sprays. 




When dry I added some stamping 



Followed by more stamping.



I used my chalk pastel pencils to enhance the colours in the sky.




The usual finishing touches added the extra detail. 




I love the way the mice are celebrating with fireworks. 
Here is a closer look 





Remember that you can win £40 to spend at Lavinia and the winner is drawn at random. 

Thanks everyone for your lovely wishes, 
Cards, flowers, and hugs. 

You really are the most wonderful friends.

Love and hugs

One Star and Four Mice At Christmas

Morning everyone, 
Thank you for popping in today. 
Thanks so much for your lovely messages, they really have helped. 
I spent yesterday with my Mum and she is doing so well 
I am really proud of her.

Yesterday it was my Tuesday YouTube catch up day and I sat in my dads chair whilst I watched it. 
He used to love watching them and then reading the comments. 
Bless him, we all miss him so much. 

This is a design to make you smile, 
and we are going festive, 
an early Christmas card. 




I do hope you like it.

Take care everyone. 
Much love and hugs
