So much for my resolution to cut out unnecessary spending!! I was looking at these a while ago and I think they are a few of you who were interested too!

I had a catalogue from Lakeland delivered,,,look at this- IT'S HALF PRICE!!!!

LOOK

I ordered one last night, along with loads of other goodies, not much crafty stuff though. I can't wait to get it and try it out. I am hoping that it will ease cardmaking while I sit and watch TV with DH and a glass of wine!

Thanks champs!! yes I am feeling a bit more positive- I have got a few things sorted today, a couple of appointments booked in for Amelia. One with the nursery Special need co-ordinator and another meeting booked in with Amelia's "medical/educational professionals" This will be the first of it's kind and they will all know what the others are doing- that will be a first!

I have done 5 minutes on our new exercise machine, had 2 glasses of very nice wine and completed 2 whole pages of Amelia's Disability living Allowance claim form!!!

....and my craft space thingy has been despatched!!

If you look at the lakeland website, they do a craft section too, they have LOADS of great stuff & you can order a catologue(sp) too.

Melissasmummy - only thing with the catalogue is that the craft stuff doesn't appear in it. Very weird. It's there on their website and in store but not in the catalogue - strange

You have to order the craft catalogue. Look on the website, it should give you the option to order, or call their customer services

Who me!!!! Not guilty madam!!

Made some thank you cards for the teachers yesterday using the sizzix bodies. I was just sooo please with them and so were the teachers!
I have loads of kiddies birthday cards to make for out "baby group!!" (The babies are now all approaching 6 though, but the group still get together)I have decided to make sizzix footballers for the boys and either faries or ballerinas for the girls......

....really trying to tell myself I do not need to buy the doll body die yet...I could do a swap for some other cuts....but it would be so much easier to cut my own! ...and I have all that flesh coloured card to use up too.....

I keep looking on Ebay.....one day.......a Sizzix will be mine.......

Yes, I blame you for my £17 spend Dingle -you tempted me to look at the website with your fancy box thingy.
Up until then Lakeland was just a shop for potato mashers and tea bag holders...

LOL whizzz, their kitchen goodies are fab too!!
Ordered some great plasticy "wooden" spoons, DH wanted some of those wine glass holders that you stake into the grass, and we got some great little outdoor lights to hang in our pergola! Just right for relaxing in the evening with yet another glass of wine. I will sit civilized under the lit pergola and I will make DH sit up the garden on the wet grass so that he can make use of his fancy wine glass holders!

We drove past Hobbycraft today - noticed they had a big sign saying "SUMMER CLEARANCE".....

Despite begging DH to stop, he didn't - hoping for a visit tomorrow !

Anyone want anything ?????
