Hello Everyone, Happy Belated New Year and welcome to my first post of 2009, I'm afraid I've allowed my personal problems pre-occupy(SP?) my life for the past few weeks thus the lack of crafting. Ive signed up for a few swaps this month on the Crafts Beautiful Forum so had to push myself back into gear to honour the swaps.........stupidly I forgot to take pic's of the two tags and the bookmark I made.

After a 6 week wait I finally had an appointment at the hospital yesterday for a Ultrasound scan, so now just have to wait a week for the results to reach my G.P.!!

Over the past month Ive recieved this lovely bunch below.

First up is ...............

• Christmas Bookmark from Big Bunnies Uk.
• New Year Card and Cat ATC from Mittens.
• and Thank you ATC from Helly Belly

RAK of Paper's , Buttons,Blooms and Tag from Debbie D

Rak of frames, die cuts and verse's from Shellyhope.

Thank you all very much ladies!xxxxxxxxxxxxx
