Bigshot Club - Beautiful Butterflies Bigz class.......

Hello Everyone...
I can't believe where the days are going! We have just been away for the weekend to our family in London. This morning we went to find another London Farmer's Market, this one was in the extremely nice area Marlebone. The Marlebone Farmer's Market was full of wonderful food stalls. I finally found some ENGLISH new apples, they are Worester Pearman's and they smell delish! The choices were brilliant, we will definately be going back to that one. I looked on Google Maps and there are quite a few all within driving distances but we didn't have time to do another today, so we will leave them for another month.

The buildings around that area were beautiful, all the carvings and the colours of the bricks and stone were really different. I'm suprised we didn't crash with me keep pointing bits out to my hubbie driving. We won't forget our beloved Borough Market though! There's always another reason to go to London....

Well a month has nearly gone by and the next Bigshot Club is this Thursday. It's also an important day for Exam Results!!!

I decided to use the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die for this month's class. You can cut FOUR different sizes butterflies with this wonderful die.

The class includes a couple of 3D cards.....


A Double easel card with the smaller butterflies ...



Then I made some Large Butterfly Magnets, and bagged them up in the celo bags with toppers.



On a sadder note, So Sorry to hear the news of a Red Arrow Death. I have always love seeing these amazing aeroplanes and the fantastic pilots. We are in the middle of an Air Show here in the South of England and one sadly died in an accident yesterday. Every time I was running out the door to see a small glimpse, Sid was trying to bite my ankles and tripping me up! I did see a couple of the others though. Amazing any planes took off with the rain we all had on Thursday.



Until next time.....

Been On Holiday......

Hello Everyone! Sorry for the lack of posts but we have been away on Holiday. What a relaxing week we had. We went to Shropshire for a change this year, a very beautiful place. The lodge was brilliant with its own hot tub and all around decking complete with a gate. Sid spent lots of time sun bathing! The site was in the middle of no where and yet close to the places we wanted to visit.

We went to Ironbridge near Telford. Lovely setting with the town and the Victorian Village. I found this house, which I thought was gorgeous, My hubbie knew I would say that was my house!!!! Lovely Colours and the flowers were so bright.
We were very close to LUDLOW which was so busy with all its gift shops, eateries etc. It also has a castle in the centre which was nice to wonder around. My boys were brilliant this holiday for photo's, they didn't mind me taking them at all this year and they were even posing for them. Normally they muck around and I only get one normal one, Hence this one!!!!!

Yes he does belong to us! (Not the man in the background, I mean our Son! behind us)

So I put them all in Jail!
Right then on with Washing and then I can Open up my Craft Room! I didn't take any Craft with me as it was banned, so I am really itching to get my hands inky!
