Mothers Day

Hi everyone hope you are all well today ,  i had a fab time at Harrogate on Saturday with my daughter in law and we both got some lovely goodies and a few bargains too, i got 8 gorgeous new LOTV stamps for mothers day off my lovely son's  and we also managed to get to watch quite a few demo's,

My card today is my Mums mothers day card,  she is so difficult to make cards for so i did this really simple card, she doesn't like anything fussy or cute n cuddly ,so it had to be flowers

Liebster blog award

                                     I am so thrilled and very honoured to be awarded this
                                    
                                            I was awarded this by the lovely Wendy
Thank you so much for thinking of me and nominating me for the award
       I would also like to thank Tina who also nominated me




The idea of the Liebster Blog Award is to spread the love from one small blog (under 200 followers) to other small blogs. This helps to spread knowledge and readership.



To accept the award, you must:

                                       
                            1) Link back to the person who gave it and thank them for thinking of you.

                                                                2)  Post the award on your blog .


              3) Give to five bloggers who you appreciate and value


    4) Leave a comment on the blogs of the five people you have choosen to let them know














  "Liebster" in German means "dearest", so to carry on the Liebster tradition, I am going to pass the
          award onto 5 people who's blogs have been an inspiration to me and my crafting.
 there are so many wonderful small blogs that have inspired me,
It has been very difficult to chose only 5.
But, here are 5 wonderful and inspiring blogs/ bloggers that I would love to pass the Liebster Blog award on to (in no particular order).

Sharon ~ forget me not
      Susan ~ My Little Sanctuary
 Crafty Nanny ~Nanny Jacks card blog
Debs ~ debsdoescrafts
