Hey, Gullfriend

 

Hi there friends, how is your weekend going so far?
I am enjoying just relaxing today and making cards

of course. We are having two of our grandchildren 

to stay next week so I am making the most of the
peace and quiet lol. Oh and I had such a shock on 

Tuesday!!!...more of that later though ;)....and sorry

long post warning too!

 

See my previous post if you are nosey about my craft

 room organizing. Before and after pics there now ;)

Not that it's finished but I am slowly getting there.

Right back to my card, over at 'Less is More' this week

they want us to do some piercing on our cards. This is

what I came up with, a pierced edging, hope that's ok.

I used my new gull stamps, just had to buy them as

they looked so quirky and they made me smile too ;)

Also using my new cloud stencil and Nuvo drops.

Not great at using either of those yet so make

allowances please!

P.S. About my shock, I was shopping in Waitrose and

 saw a little boy who was the spitting image of Prince

 George. My first thought was what a good look alike

 he would be. (I admit  we did stare at each other a

 bit lol.Then I spotted him mum, ....and she looked just

 like Kate too! Now my confusion was growing.

 

 Then another woman with a girl, in a trolley mentioned

 the name Charlotte. To say my mouth fell open was an

 understatement! I stared at them briefly, well I suppose

 they are well used to that reaction by now lol. Then I

turned my back and looked at the bread to give them 

some peace.Never scrutinized bread as much as I did 

that day lol.No one else around either so it made it even

 more surreal.

 

I listened to the childrens chatter (asking for treats)

 for a while then made my way to the checkout.

 Kate was there soon after too, just casually putting

stuff on the conveyor belt. She bought a lot of shopping

 (didn't see what though).

When I got back to the car my OH was waiting there

 and I told him about seeing Kate.We waited a bit just 

drinking our free coffee to see if she came out. She 

stopped for a coffee inside first ( ahem yes we did 

wait around) but then came skipping out holding

 hands with Charlotte.

 

 What a happy sight that was! To think she can just take

 the children out and about like that is so lovely I think.

 Oh and then she proceded to unpack all her shopping

 into the car herself.

So sorry about the long post, (I know I hate having to 

read long posts myself). I just had to tell you 'stuff' 

anyway here is my card. Of course enjoy your weekend

 whatever you have planned ;)
