What has Lou Been Up To This Month?


May has been, and will continue to be, utterly crazy for me! In a good way, I think. Here are the highlights:

Mothers' Day, 2012

Mother's Day - being the mother of four children under twelve, this involves handmade cards (the best kind), squishy hugs, a cup of tea and breakfast in bed ....and then it's over for another year. Laundry, cooking, etc still need to get done.

Mother's Day also means I was making cards and gift tags to sell at some local businesses in the lead up to the big day.

Also, our house is currently a construction site. Well, new paint inside and out, and new carpets. The end is in sight! Our painters have been considerate, professional and friendly, but it is still stressful having strangers in your house from 7:00am, everything packed away in the garage, drop sheets, internal doors removed....you get the idea!

The kids still have birthday parties, school excursions, assignments, NAPLAN, etc.

There is still more to come! In the next few weeks I have a couple of workshops, Convention in Canberra, and my birthday!

 

Happy Stamping!

Hi Louise! So lovely to rediscover your blog! I wish I was as crafty as you - I have all of the motivation but none of the talent. I look forward to going through your blog and seeing what wonderful creations you have come up with :-)

I think that today is your birthday if I am remembering correctly. Happy Birthday. Have a great day. Sue

Getting closer....

It's nearly that time of year, where the retirement list comes out.  That means the in-colours we've loved the past 2 years are leav...
