As you can see I did succumb and bought a few bits and bobs at the NEC but lots of this is birthday pressies from my lovely crafty buddies too :-) Did you spot the HM mug !! that was a gift from a fellow HM&F +SSS challenge teamie, Heather :-) Thanks Heather I know it will get lots of use :-) there are stamps from Domi, and ribbons and embellies and papers from Jo, Chris, Natascha, Joey, Sue, Carissa, Jane, I also received a beautiful frame from Debby which I will show later with a photo of us in it ,,, just need to get that printed !! oh my goodness ,, I hope I didn't miss anyone ,, I have been in the UK for a few weeks and my brain is muddled as things arrived there and here ,,and I didn't write things down !!! If I have forrgot you I am sincerely sorry and please give me a nudge so I can add you xx
