Today I'm a long way away from my desk and for the next who knows how many days, I'll be here in Bath in my own little room at my daughter's, ready to look after my granddaughter Daisy when my daughter goes to hospital to have her second child.
I hope she doesn't go too far beyond her due date, (which is this coming Saturday,) as I don't really want to stay away from home (and my craft desk) for too long. However, I didn't want to stay at home and then have to make a mad dash here should the occasion arise. It takes about and hour and three quarters to drive!
I can however show you the card I made for Daisy for when her little sibling arrives. Sadly it seems that I may have left it at home, what a good job I thought to take a picture of it!!
DO join Julia over at her Stamping Ground and see people's workspaces from around the world... the link is on my sidebar... and have a great WOYWW!
Oh what a lovely card you have made for Daisy! So you are on stand by now? I hope all goes well and we will soon hear the good news! Have a lovely time in Bath!

AS I am up and running I better get straight back to you! I was looking for the MS scoring board in England or somewhere in Europe but I couldn't find it anywhere so I decided to order it from the States - the thing is if you order from there the postage is and extra 25 $ but because I ordered more other things too I guess it was worth it! I ordered at Simon Says Stamp as the price is the same as if you order directly from Martha Stewart! I haven't done anything with it yet but I will report as soon as I do!
ReplyDeleteI hope this was helpful!

Glad to read I haven't missed out on the blessed event. Obviously, I didn't come by last week, and for that I apologize. I will try to check back on Saturday to see if there is any "news."
ReplyDeleteAnd that card for Daisy is adorable. I know she will love it as soon as she gets it. Hope you are enjoying the privacy of your own room. Sounds like a fun vacation to me. I'd gladly trade places with you this week (grin). Happy WOYWW from #10.

ReplyDeleteOh Chrissie you made me laugh - leaving the card at home - you have adopted post partum brain= swiss cheese status...hope it all goes smoothly.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting for you. Hope baby arrives soon! Lovely card. Thanks for the peep. Kathleen x
ReplyDeleteOoooo... - thinking of you...know that story - my mum was on duty for a whole week and I spent 3 days in the labour ward awaiting my nephew. I do hope it all goes well and that you survive it all too. Perfectly natural to miss that craft table - I did big time! Just enjoy the chance to have a good nose around all the blogs...!
ReplyDeleteSarah
Love the card.
ReplyDeletewill you be able to tear yourself away when the sibling has arrived?! lol
I love that card you made for Daisy, and what a lovely idea to make her feel special. Hope all goes well with her brother/sister, and look forward to seeing pictures of them both. We have about a month to wait for our next grandchild.
ReplyDeleteHi Chrissie, Love the card you have made for Daisy and the thought behind it. Hopefully she won't feel left out when the new baby arrives. Elizabeth #60
ReplyDeleteLovely perfect crd for a big sister, i'm sure cuddles with the new baby will help ease the withdrawal from craft.

Enjoy the time with your growing family!! I bet that Daisy will love to open her card from the mail later!
ReplyDeleteGreat card. Enjoy your stay and hope all goes well!
ReplyDeleteHope you don't have too long to wait and that everything goes well for your daughter. I am almost in the same boat as you as my new Grandson is due in 3 weeks but we are hoping she goes early again as she is now struggling to get around as the baby is so big
ReplyDeletexx
Oh that is a lovely card .. and THANK YOU! You have just given me the inspiration I needed to finish a Sweet 16 card I'm struggling with.
ReplyDeleteI hope your wait is of short duration and your daughters delivery goes smoothly.

Love that card from Daisy... is the colour scheme an indication of the sex of the new baby - or did I miss it and you already said what she was having... OR is it that colour because its from Daisy? My mind is truly boggled.
ReplyDeletePaula x x x
oops... meant to say - no wonder your desk looked tidy when I first saw it (tee hee)!!!
