belated birthday gift

so remember a few weeks back i said wait till you see what my David had bought me for my birthday..well it finally arrived today..with a big fat customs charge as an added treat for me...never mind...because as i slowly unwrapped it i knew i was slowly falling in love...

i saw this a few weeks ago in one of my favorite etsy shops..that belongs to marmee craft...i love her blog and have wanted to get something for a while..but I'm not a fan of prints of originals as it just seems like a photocopy to me...i wanted originals...and when i saw this i quickly called my David and asked if he would buy it for me for my birthday..and he said yes...hurrah for husbands..the packaging was lovely and she sent me some nice little cards as added extras..but the main thing itself was what i wanted...

just look at it..its called best friends and its now my best friend...and its gonna be with me forever..and even the back of the canvas panel looks lovely..

and look at my cat cheese..i think she now knows when the camera is out that if shes lucky she can be part of the scene too...but as long as i have a bunny and a cat linking arms in my life i know all will be well...

please shop for me ...

so there i was browsing some of my fave blogs when i came across these recycled letters from urban outfitters...and now i will let them say how i feel...





I'm sad because i live in crappy London, and our urban outfitters does not have such fab things...so I'm sending out an s o s...will someone please go shopping for me and ship a few over for me from the grand old U S of A ?...ill pay of course,...you don't get unless you ask do ya ?....the even sadder thing is that i was meant to be having a trip to new york in September but i think that's on hold now...i am going to Florida in December so maybe ill be patient and get them then..oh i love them so much...

poodle power

so its been ages since my last blog post..id like to tell you its because i have been hard at work crafting up a storm...but the truth is i have been simply sat on my fat ass staring at my new etsy purchase...these poodle cards...look at them...do they not make a small tear of joy run down your cheek...do they make your heart beat faster than it should...no ?...just me then...they had me at hello...i got them from here, a fab etsy shop full of lovely stuff....oh and just wait to you see what my David has bought me for my birthday..ill do a blog about that soon..

my etsy purchase..

so the package i have been waiting for from etsy arrived..and it was even better than i could have hoped for..so did you guess what i had bought from my etsy fave list ?...no...well look at this...its the best est thing in the world ever..and its from karaku fabric

it came beautifully wrapped and karaku had included a few freebie extras..some more fab fabric and some hello Kittie tissues..so cute it made my heart go boom boom boom, and look at the card she included...she wished i like it...and i like it very much...but now the dilemma of what to do with it...cushion ?..or should i frame it...or just walk around with it like a comfort blanket...but seen as I'm a massive 32 yr old bear of a man that might look strange.

my favorite part is the hula hooping bunny...if only etsy sold them..
