Feel good
One thing I want to introduce here in my blog are positive affirmations, quotes that inspire, bring happiness and new understanding. I love nothing more than introducing these positive phrases into my works, as seen in my embroideries I did a few weeks ago. So here it goes the start of my new weekly 'feel good phrases'...

Embroidered characters
I've started embroidering some little people the last few days, not sure what I'm going to be doing with them yet, maybe some bookmarks or lavender bags, any ideas?

Back to crafting
So it's been a busy few weeks, waving family off on their various holidays, working on the house and minding my mums two tortoise - Silky and Shiloh (and yes there is a slight Brad Pitt obsession that resulted in one of the names). As I'm much more of a fluffy animal lover my mum has already sweetened me up with a beautiful bunch of mixed flowers (below) for me to admire as I clean out the stinky tortoise tank :s
Anyway as of today I'm back on the crafting bandwagon, got my sketch pad and pencils at the ready as I plan out my next projects - happy days :)

Wet dog
My dog really is a wimp, leaving me to go out on my own in the wet as he's scared of a little rain, he wouldn't even come down the stairs...I may ave to give him a bath later out of spite! *cue evil laugh* mwah ha ha ha har!

Future King
Seems we have a new future king here in the UK, I wonder what he's going to be called. I have to be honest I was hoping for a future Queen, but still happy - I'm a big royal lover!
