Honest scrap award from two lovely ladies

I'd like to thank Kate and Hayley for nominating me for this award.



According to Hayley:

"This award is bestowed upon a fellow blogger whose blog content or design is, in the giver's opinion, brilliant."

So thank you ladies, I'm very grateful.

The conditions of the award are:
  • To thank the person who gave me the award, list their blog and link to it


  • I must list 10 honest things about myself


  • I must put a copy of The Honest Scrap Logo on my blog


  • I must select at least 7 other worthy bloggers & list their links


  • I must notify the bloggers of the award

So here is my list of honest things about myself.......

  1. Always putting my family first, (then get upset, because I feel they put upon me)


  2. Love watching Neighbours and QVC


  3. I become a different person, when I get behind the steering wheel of my car!


  4. I love Kipling handbags. (There about the only colourful things I have in my wardrobe)

  7. Cannot walk past a craft shop without going in and buying something


  8. Need to loose at least 6 stone in weight !!


  9. I have to be early, never late…it drives my husband mad!


  10. I look for clothes that don’t need ironing, because I loath Ironing

Hello :0)

Thought it was about time I started to blog again. Sorry for being missing for so long...

I have been busy with family life and a new job. However the little job I had working at the school, has finished due to loss of funding, so I am now unemployed again...still gives me more time to craft LOL.

It's half term holiday and DH & DS have been fishing all day, which means I have been crafting. I decided to make a Thank You card to send to all the fab people I have been working with at the school. So many of them made me feel so welcome when I first started. Circumstances on my last day, ment I couldn't say goodbye to them all, so I wanted to send them a card to let them know, how grateful I was for all their kind words.

Now I can't take the credit for designing this card. I saw it somewhere some time ago, but I cannot remember where, so I cannot give credit to the person who designed it. Sorry...



Supplies:
Certainly Celery DP
Pale Plum Card stock
Pocket Silhouettes, Thank You Kindly stamp sets
Chocolate Chip 5/8" Grosgrain ribbon
Chocolate Chip ink

Now, I need to thank Kate and Hayley for leaving me an award. I will be back to post about that later....
