Smashing Sunday

I hope you're all having a lovely weekend so far, sadly our weather certainly hasn't been playing nicely.  Goodness, I'm freezing, I can't believe that we had the wood burner alight yesterday evening, and I think its heading the same way tonight.

Anyhow enough moaning, instead I'd like to share with your a couple of lovely things that I've won over on blogs recently.  Honestly, when I've seen my name come up, I've been so excited you may well have heard me :)

Firstly, just look at this amazing book I that I received from Jo from Curly Scrapbooker

 
I can't wait to have a good read of it, I think it's just what I need.

Then just the other day, these lovely goodies came from Becky, over at Becky's Scrapbook Burblings, for me. 


Thank you guys so much xxx

Ok, I did say that I'd share with you, my smash book playing.  I recently bought a Prima mixed media doll stamp, and together with some Promarkers, this is the outcome.  I've been busy checking out Pinterest for inspiration with tags etc., so hopefully more to follow.



And lastly .... on this rather chilly Sunday, here's to the weather improving next week.  Not just for the start of Wimbledon, but also because we have new garden furniture being delivered tomorrow - as due to the high winds of recent days, it bought down our garden parasol smashing our glass table and breaking part of our decking.


So enough is enough ... are you listening weather! ... Summer needs to start tomorrow! .. There, I'm putting my foot down.

  4. What super goodies - have fun & enjoy.

    I agree, it is about time the weather settled down and delivered some nice stuff. It was forecast to be lovely here today but so far it is overcast very breezy and chilly.

    Hope the decking can be fixed easily.

  14. How lucky are you? Two fabulous prizes. Love how your smash book is developing and I keep looking at those Prima stamps and thinking I may need to try them out. The weather is quite bizarre at the moment, on Monday we had the heating on at work in the morning and all the windows open in the afternoon.
