Happy Mothers Day

I would just like to wish all my fellow mums a very Happy Mothers Day.

Today has been lovely, I whipped up a quick card for my nephew, which I am entering in the "Abstract" #290 CASology challenge:


A nice simple card, I had the sunset backing paper in my stash and thought my little skate-boy stamp and a die-cut sentiment.

I got taken out for a lovely meal at Moonsha, a Japanese restaurant I like.



My lovely girls trying to decide what to have.

We started with Sushi and Gyoza (fried dumplings). Unfortunately I forgot to get a piccie.



 
 Main course was excellent, I had the Tempura bento box, it was like being back in Japan
Needless to say the girls were happy too, eldest had the Beef Teriyaki bento, youngest had the Katsu don and hubby had the Tempura, same as me.




Of course Mawgan had to share her dinner with her friends on snapchat.







 But no meal is complete without dessert




                Mochi                                                                       Coconut Ice cream

I hope your Mothers Day was a wonderful one too

Well, it's been a long and exciting day           
Hugs & Happy thoughts

Advent catch up.....

The last few days have been a little crazy, the forensics have come back from the lab so our case officer came round to take statements (they took statements on the night but they have to do it again just in case you're overly emotional at the time). An hour after the officer had left the Asda delivery showed up, once we had packed all that away we finally grabbed some dinner. Friday wasn't much better and then yesterday my husband decided to do the back-up which took the entire day!!! MENTAL!!!!
I promised to share my creation for advent window 13 but what I should have said was a peek.
It's a birthday card for a football mad friend and I don't want to give the Game away.

Just before we get on with the advent calendar.....I will be offer 2 crafty candies in January, one for UK followers and one for Worldwide followers.....so if you want to start following now so you don't miss the event...

But let's get on with a few more days shall we......
"In the 14th Advent window 
my calendar gave to me
a creepy little spider web"
"In the 15th Advent window 
my calendar gave to me
a beautiful diamond ring"
I decided to combine the last two into a homage to my wonderful sister-in-law. She has refused to marry her other half for the best part of 2 decades so I created an ATC to express the long wait..
I used a dark grey backing, die-cut the web from light grey and added a little black ink. I ruffed the edges. I added a little blue gem to give it a bit more dimension. I die-cut the bow in mirri-card wihich I then scrunched up. The red fabric is a tiny scrap thet was left over from the waistcoats I made earlier in the year.
She has said she'll marry him when england win the world cup......She never specified if it had to be the mens team 😁 !!!!!!Go ladies!!!!!
I'm entering this into:
 The 16th and 17th will follow very shortly, as well as I peek at my happy holidays collection.

See you tomorrow
Hugs and happy thoughts

Men!!!

They can be the hardest people to make a card for............
I almost forgot one of my work colleague's birthday........sinful!
But I put my nose to the grindstone and came up with the perfect card for him, so I'm entering it into 2 challenges;





The Male Room










CASology







So for his birthday card, I used a decorating theme as he bought his first house not long ago
I've gone for a very simple cleanish look. This stamp is one of my more recent acquisitions and I think he's quite sweet.
Stamps - LOTV Lick of Paint and WMS Compact Sentiments
Colour - Various Promarkers and SU inkpad Not Quite Navy
Some wood effect backing paper from my stash

I am actually quite pleased with how it turned out.
Well, I better finish typing up this recipe before my eldest starts calling for my blood...lol

Oh yes, I have a secret and I promise to share it soon
Hugs
