Well ... the day is here ... it's my birthday and I am now 45 years old ... Oh my ... where has the time gone? And cor blimey ... that sounds really old!!!
Well I may be old but I am also very lucky ... as is customary around these here parts I get to do what I want all day ... so I am crafting! Now you know ... and I know ... that I craft most days ... see lucky ... that's me!
Thank you to everyone for all your lovely birthday wishes and emails and cards and phone calls ... and for yesterday's jokes ... you all sure know how to make a girl feel special.
Now for the tag ... a real mix on this one ... Distress Inks used were Tumbled Glass, Stormy Sky, Forest Moss and Chipped Sapphire. All the background stamps are by Tim ... the man that can fly an Apache helicopter while rescuing small kittens from precarious positions in tree tops and hand craft a birthday card all at the same time with just a pokey tool and a Mini Mister Stadium!
Talking of which ... I got the Mini Mister stadium for my birthday ... totally cool and not forgetting the new set of Wendy Vecchi stamps ... you know Wendy ... the lovely and very talented and very busy lady that took the time to visit my blog earlier today and wish me a Happy Birthday ... Bless her!
Right I must away ... I have more Birthday fun to come ... tomorrow I am getting a makeover paid for by my daughter and her chappie ... John said "Just let me know how many days they will need and I will come and get you!" Charming!
Bye peeps and Thank you again *MWAH*
EDIT: OH MY GOD! ... YES I AM SHOUTING AND DANCING AND SQUEALING AND NEARLY WETTING MYSELF ... READ MY COMMENTS TO FIND OUT WHY ... DO YOU KNOW ... MY BIRTHDAY JUST TURNED INTO ONE REALLY REALLY SPECIAL DAY!
