Today's Makes!

I had a rather eventful start to the day......I got up at 5:45am to get ready for work, with awful ear ache & feeling a bit dodgy on my feet, well I stumbled and fell. I've not been feeling well for the past couple of day's, so now I know why. I have an Ear Infection. Ive got some tablets to stop me feeling dizzy and to be honest they have worked wonders so all set for work tomorrow. You're probably thinking I'm mad but I love my job and hate to miss time from work although to be honest it was quite nice to have a day off with James and a extra bit of time in the Craftroom
Here are my makes for this afternoon.
