We have been asked to make a card and be a guest for Crafty Monkeys http://hannahzoecraftymonkeys.blogspot.com/ this time here are our cards....

Shaleise's Card...

I have used a Tilda image from my mum and coloured her in with pencil crayons, i cut out an oval from the x cut system, some ribbon and beads from The Range and i have used liquid pearls to make it nice, by Shaleise x x x




Samara's card...




I have used a die cut from my mum and given her lots of gems, sat her on a piece of pink card and used some glitter glue and liquid pearls, and the backing paper is a bag that i got a gift in and thought it was to nice to throw away by Samara x x x

We are so excited to be asked and wanted to say a big thank you to all at Crafty Monkeys...

Special people and very Special THANK YOU'S

Last night dad went to a governors meeting and took Auntie Vanessa home afterwards, she had some mail for us from Post pals.

The first thing was a letter for T.J with some postcards and some Halloween decorations, this has come all the way from Japan, a big thank you to Tamaki for sending these T.J loves postcards and these are perfect to add to his collection, they are very beautiful.




It is T.J birthday on Halloween so we will be putting these up with all his cards, Thank you again Tamaki.




Then T.J got another postcard with a big thumbs up on if from his post pal Karen, this one has come all the way from France thank you Karen.

T.J also got a letter from his post pal Jane and she had enclosed a little plane for him to play with so thank you to Jane also.





A little while ago a lady contacted my mum to say she has sent Sammie a special gift through the post, take a look at the postcard that came with it, isn't it very pretty lots of cats and mice in lovely bright colours.

With the postcard came a very very special gift a handmade quilt that matches the postcard, it is so lovely even mum had a little cry at the kindness that has been shown in making this for my sister Sammie.


It matches the postcard perfect.

Sammie even has a pink room so it goes in her room perfectly.


There is also a special little message on the underside of the quilt, this has taken a very long time to make and is so special.


So a big thank you to Nicolette and the north sea quilters for your very special gift it is amazing and we all love it...

My brother T.J and sister Sammie are so happy today and that makes me happy love Liddie x x x
