Glorious

I just love this weather, not a cloud in the sky - plenty of fresh air and fun. In fact this is one of the reasons why I want to move to Canberra, because they get more of this weather than we do.
Anyway, here are some pics from yesterday - I'm off for a jaunt out Royal Deeside to visit my mum and dad.
 This is Ziggy trying to find the frog - he could hear him but he couldn't see him lol


 Willow


 Faith


 I was lying on my back looking up at the trees and these colours just really appealed to me :)


 Princess Pepsi, a wee bit puggled with the heat


 Faith's so white she's almost pale blue lol


 And Scott really is pale blue! 
 This is how close we live to the sea, isn't it fab??

Leaving

no, it's not me that's leaving... but the 2 heli admin girls who work under Graham have been made redundant and are moving to new jobs so he asked me on Wednesday if I'd make a couple of leaving cards for them - nothing like a bit of notice, seeing as he went offshore on Thursday morning.
So because I was pushed for time I kept it very very simple and concentrated on the images. He also wanted large 8x8 cards so that all their colleagues can sign the cards, and I'm not a fan of making great big cards, too much white space to fill!
We spent hours looking for a suitable "leaving" image, or something that would tie in with their job, but I couldn't find anything suitable. So I treated myself to a couple of Kenny K Downloads, Madison Attitude and Miss Thang - another one accidentally landed in my basket because it reminded me of Willow with her iPod, but more of that another day.

I'd like to enter them into
ABC challenge - T is for Trouble
I ♥ ProMarkers  - no designer papers


If you haven't already entered my candy then you have just 10 more days to enter - and in case you hadn't noticed I have some extra goodies to add to the pot if I get 100 entrants. I have some brand new Me To You tatty teddy goodies from Do-Crafts, so remember to spread the word.


Anyway, am off for a shower and an early night I think...

Wow

Well, I was going to share a couple of cards with you today, but quite honestly I don't think any of you would be interested, and I'm certainly not because I have spent the whole day so far sniffling at the Royal Wedding.
And it's been so amazing to share this amazing event with friends across the globe thanks to Facebook, Twitter and Blogger.
I wish William and Kate a long, healthy and happy life together





New Baby 1
