Halloween = my birthday!

Hi folks

Hope you all had a good Halloween! I know I had! I also had one of the best birthdays in my puff too! :o)

Family, the girls in SWOT [school fundraising group], Kirsteen and Kerryanne [you know who you are girlies!] just made it one of my most memorable birthdays! I was laden with cards and lovely gifts from the girls. My prescribed medicinal 'bottle' from Sharon had me in hoots with the 'script' instructions. We usually have our fundraising meetings on a Friday in the school and this is where I was presented with all this AND in the staff room at break time, they surprised me with a full room of staff, us and a birthday cake with lit candles! Just a terrific bunch o' girlies! Many, many thanks for that - really made my year!

We spent the afternoon for a wee whilie at Chelsea's birthday party - though regrettably we had to scoot off as the kids and myself had a cinema date with High School Musical 3! Anyone seen that yet? It's the best out of the 3! What a fabby day!

I had made these for the kids to give to a couple of chums, I also gave some to the girlies and the kids' 3 teachers for Halloween!

Halloween's coming!

Heh heh heh - would you believe Halloween's gonna be here soon? Maybe because that's my birthday I get all excited about Halloween! [yeah, sad I know!]

Well, I came across these SU stamps on that auction site again only cos we can't get them over here even in the new catalogue - honestly I've really browsed! They arrived yesterday [Saturday] but of course I had to go to work as per every weekend and had to wait until I finished my shift, got the kids off to bed and I watched a little telly. It must've been around 11 pm before I started tinkering about again LOL!

Halloween candy bags

I had a wee crafting session today and these are what I produced. One of our local supermarkets are selling a huge tin of "Roses" or "Quality Street" chocolates for £4.99 a tin instead of £9.99. Bargain! Got out some of my Sizzix Halloween sizzlets - bought them probably around a year ago but never used them until now! Also used the Quickcutz skeleton die. Some basic black cardstock, Doodlebug printed paper.
