More quickies!

Here's another round-up of quick pics I've not shown yet! Some little cards for my important dates tin and another cover for a tin.



Really quick and easy - squares of the Celebrations DSP and stamps from Party This Way.



Good for blokes using Trendy Trees and Nursery Suite DSP.



A kids card with the Fox and Friends animals and Play Date DSP.



Another bloke one using Cheers To You and some In Color ribbon.



Finally, another of the cover labels for the tins.

I am feeling very summery today and enjoyed my lunch outside. I am solar powered so I always get a boost when spring arrives. Only problem is I couldn't sit and do my work out there because of the glare on my laptop screen. Ah well!

The WI and vintage finds

Mondays aren't all bad! Today has been pretty good fun so far and a lovely start to the week.

I was up at the West Yorkshire Federation of Women's Institutes this morning for the membership committee meeting. I am all for getting involved and it's great to be able to help the WI grow. As usual, I came away with several tasks, so I will be busy doing my bit!

And on the way back I called into the antique shop on Armley Town Street. I keep meaning to go in and I'm glad I finally managed to visit today.

I bought a few books ...



The two little ones are for me. I will hopefully alter them and use them in scrapping and card making projects. The motorbike one is for my good friends Hayley and Flower as a bribe to get them to help me restore this ...



Mini sewing machine! I just had to have it! It does work but needs a bit of cleaning up and some oil. I keep meaning to use real stitching on my cards and scrapbook pages but it is such a faff getting out my big proper sewing machine. So once this is up and running I have no excuse!

And to top it all off, the sun is shining! Lovely!
