MY ALICE SWAP IS PACKED AND ON IT'S WAY




Here are some pics I would like to share with you of my take on the *MARCH HARE* from Alice in Wonderland...I used mohair for his body and for his shirt some muslin..his jacket is a vintage dogtooth check wool...for the charm I used some vintage style graphics with chain and rusty bell and pin..I also made a simple tag to go along with him and then grubbied everything up to give it that prim touch..he is on his way to the States now gift wrapped in an old tissue paper pattern piece..





I was really lucky to get Sue from RABBIT HOLLOW PRIMS as my swap partner...I have had so much fun doing this I am already looking out for my next swap LOL...










I hope you have enjoyed the pics and look forward to posting my swap item when it arrives...I hope you all have a great week...*~*Blessings*~*

MY BABY IS 7 YEARS OLD NOW !!!! WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE..



*~*HAPPY BIRTHDAY FINLEY *~*
I can't believe this week my baby is 7 years old..He is the youngest of my 6 children and for his birthday he was desperate for a pet of his own...We thought him now old enough for such a privilage..he chose to have a guinea pig and we went to the pet shop to make that special selection..As they thrive better in pairs he decided to let his older brother Elliot choose a guinea pig for himself so they could have one each....







Here he is with his special pal..*ROCKY*..











Elliot with his special pal *CARLY*..










WHAT ARE BOYS MADE OF ?????

Boys are made of chuckles and grins,
Tousled hair and banged shins,
Things with wheels and frogs in pockets,
Questions, baseball caps and rockets,
There joy and mischief, fun and noise-
that's how it is - Boys will be boys !!!
Hope you all have a great weekend...*~*Blessings*~*..Angi XX
