Search for the Lippy Chicks


Today I uploaded a brand new product to the marketplace onto my site, it is a fab Flip book from Lippy Chick. It is approx 5" x 5" inches and contains 10 pages for scrappers to decorate to their hearts content!
And they are flying out the door.
The creator has also opened a challenge for scrappers to submit their finished Flip book and her faves will be included in marketing material, how fab is that? Full details can be seen here http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/boards/showthread.php?t=128003

Robbie, Ribs and Barbies!!!


What a weekend I have had!

On Friday, Roz, Heather and I went to see the fantastic Robbie, OMG it was fab!!!! The stage was fantastic and he sure can entertain!
Trying to get out of the stadium was a nightmare, so it was another v late night.
On Saturday I had my crop in our local church and lots of the girls from UKS were there. Thank you guys for making me laugh so much, I totally forgot how tired I was!
Heather came out with a saying I had never heard " Ribs: Run up them" and Linda came out with a saying that Heather (cut'n'paste) used, her blog is here, so you can have a wee look http://designrecollections.squarespace.com/
Today I have spent the day gurring my DD's room, she is 6 going on 16, so the barbies do not get played with any more, and she had about 30. So they are in a box to be sold on Ebay and any money she gets she can buy a Bratz doll.

Also yesterday my order of Angel Kisses arrived so I will need to get them loaded on the site so you can all drool over them
Will leave you with a piccy of them, yummy!!!!!

My kids were at my parents this weekend so DH and I spent time re-doing my site, have a look and tell me what you think.
We also went out for a meal to Nams in East Kilbride, very yummy!
On Sunday morning I went to see Roz and sort out some paperwork for Luxurious Angels, guys you should see what we have for you!!!
One of my spare rooms looks like a stash shop, as it is covered in prizes and goody bags, I swear they are breeding! And there is more to come!!!!!!!!!

Mad Cows!


We are just back from holiday.
We spent a week in a log cabin in Loch Monzevaird in Creiff, we have been there before and just love it. The weather was lovely, the dogs were off the leads and the kids had a ball!
On the Wednesday my parents and grampa came to spend the day with us and after lunch we decided to leave grampa with the dogs and the rest of us would walk round the loch.
It is about 1 1/2 miles right round and we were abour 100 yards from the cabin when we came accross a large group of menacing looking cows and a bull.
We debated walking through the field, but the cows did not look happy and my hubby was wearing a red top!
So back we walked.....................................
And came accross ANOTHER LOAD OF COWS!
At this point my daughter was hyterical, so we decided to walk up through the field to the main road and get back to the cabin that way.
It was also roasting hot, but eventually we reached the main road, and.................................
NO verges to walk on, and a very fast road!
So mum, myslef and the 2 kids sat and waited while my hubby and dad went back to get the Land rover so we could all pile in that.
So after saying to my grampa that we would only be an hour, we were away for about 3!!

So that night my parents stayed for dinner and they went out and bought us all..........................
..............................................STEAKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Girly night in


Blogger is letting me upload my pictures, so here are a couple of my kids, taken the other day


Last night I had 2 of my good friends Heather and Roz over, my lovely Dh made us dinner and heather brought enough treats to feed an army!
My kids were packed off to bed and we sat and watched Bridget Jone's Diary, have watched this loads, but it is still a favourite! We also sat and blethered and ate lots of chocolate!
A late night, but at least with the schools being off, i did not have to get up early.
It is raining here today, which I think is not a bad thing, but my kids are still out playing!
Right must go as have hundreds to do.

Another hot day!

Roasting hot here today!

My kids spent the day eating ice lollies and playing in water, they have got fab wee tans already.
I spent the day doing admin for the Luxurious Angels retreat, details of which can be found at www.angelcrafts.biz and packing orders, so not much sun for me!
We go away for a week on Saturday and am hoping it won't be too hot, we are also taking our 2 little dogs with us, one of whom does not travel well.
Am away now, but will leave you with a couple of pics I took of my kids out playing........ OK it is not playing will try again tomorrow

Cute or Cuter??


In case you have been asleep all day today, you will have noticed that we posted on UKS today about the Luxurious Angels Retreat! Don't worry there are still some places, so contact me for a booking form.
A pre- retreat challenge that I have given to our talented teachers is to "scrap the Angel", and here is the first one from Maggie

It is very clever and lifts to reveal the "real" Angel!

So cute or Cuter, which one do you prefer?

Am so tired!!!!!!
Last night i was up to the wee small hours chatting to 2 friends on MSN, first time I have used it, and quite liked it, my DH says I am a sad muppet!!!
Anyway got to bed around 2 and was woken at 4 as my DD had a sore tummy, she came into bed with me, but wriggled so much she was sent back to her own bed, at 5.30 was woken by DS crying as he had wet the bed, so bed changed and he wnet back to sleep, so far so good! Back to bed and woken at 7.00 by DD with sore tummy again, so just got up!!!!
Tonight I am going to bed early!!!!!
