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 the down!!!

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!!
