November Bombshell Hump Day!
It's the last Wednesday of the month, so you know what that means!
It's time for the Bombshell Stamps Hump Day Hop! This month, I figured that since so many of us have been devoting a lot of time to cooking, due to Thanksgiving in the US, I thought we should do a recipe challenge! We didn't even need to be gourmet chefs to play along! Here's the recipe:
3 Patterned Papers
2 Bombshell Stamps
1 Piece of Ribbon
Easy, right? I bet you are ready to start hopping! Here is the full hop list. Please be sure to give everyone some love!

Now did you know that Crochet is a dangerous hobby!!!
well, I managed to tear the ligaments in my ankle whilst partaking in said craft!!
How? I hear you ask..........
Sitting in a nice comfy chair with my feet up next to me having my break at work. I got pins and needles in my leg so I stood to relieve them and I just went over, turning my ankle right over. The crack was so loud I thought at first i had dislocated my ankle but it turns out that I have torn all the ligaments on the outer ankle and cracked a bone too!! All this making a blanket for little Charlie!!!
This is my rather shapely ankle then, its varied shades of purple, yellow
and blue now but thankfully not as painful!!
