SPRING HAS SPRUNG!!!

Hi Everyone

What a beautiful day it has been today .. .. Spring really seems to have sprung!!

Such lovely sunshine .. .. and mad people walking around dressed like it is the height of summer LOL!!!

Tomorrow is supposed to be even better.  Woo hoo!!!

Just a quick share tonight as I am hoping to get a bit of blog hopping in too.  So many people I need to come and visit I feel it is going to take me for ever to catch up.

Tonight's share uses a lovely image that reminds me of when I learned to type .. .. on an old manual typewriter that was the size of about 8 loaves of bread all stacked into a cube.  Boy was it hard getting those little fingers to press the keys down .. .. and to make all the letters have equal pressure .. .. gosh!!  I remember it well.  Typewriting lessons used to be my second favourite lesson after dressmaking.

Anyways..... here is my share for today





This used:

Image and sentiment:  was Pink Petticoat but no longer for sale (sorry)
Backing Papers:  Funky Hand Download "Rainbow Polkadots"
A bit of paper ripped out of a notebook
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
Staples
Diamond Stickles
Ribbon from the Stash Box

and that is me.

My makes seemed to take ages today as I am really struggling to get out of wedding mode at the moment.  In fact part of me really wants to stay there and get some of the ideas I have put together.

We have booked our next Wedding Fayre for the 20th November and are already discussing our colours for that one  .. .. but I promise not to mention it every day until then LOL!!!!

Have a great evening everyone.

Hope I get as far as your blog tonight .. .. but if not I will be there eventually.

Love

    This is so cute Jules, what a shame the image isn't available anymore. Fabulous spotty papers too :o) It's been really warm here today... wouldn't say we dressed for summer but we did at least go out without coats! Lisa x

    Hi Jules, love this soooo much - can feel another spend coming on!! I was never allowed to do typewriting and dressmaking at school; my teachers pushed me down the science route(!) and I've never forgiven them!! I thought you were only about 35 but I remember those typewriters and I'm a lot older, lol!! xxx

    I used to look forward to my manual typewriting lessons too! Dressmaking? Nah! Me and sewing machines just DON'T get along.
    Hugs, Sandra

    Hi Jules yes I remember those typewriters, the problem I have now is I rub the letters of my keyboard where Im typing so quickly, I even put feel offs on them to make the keyboard last longer but even those are gradually dissappearing. Love your card it brings so many memories back. With love and hugs Shirleyxxxxx
