Baby love



This card should hopefully be winging it's way to Bondi beach (honestly they live about 2 minutes away from the beach) remind me to go and get myself invited over there as soon as possible, maybe for babysitting duties;D As mentioned a few days ago this is for sweet baby Isla who was born last week to Sarah and my cousin Paul.

To my husbands dismay and repeated eye rolling antics I have picked up a little bargain at my local haberdashers where I spotted some old cloth in a box which turned out to be DMC evenweave linen (which can be really expensive) for 10p per little square - well I couldn't leave it there for that - could I? for a new venture that I'm hoping will combine with my love of paper crafts. It will all be revealed next week (if I haven't chucked it all in the bin from sheer frustration lol).

Have a great weekend & see you Monday xx

Oh so sweet, can't wait to see what you've got tucked up your sleeve, so to speak, with the linen!

I think you should hand-deliver this card, just to make sure it gets there!

Thanks for all your really lovely messages on my blog too!
