WOYWW

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!

    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!
    I hope this was helpful!
    Hugs,
    Cardarian

    How sweet to have your Daisy card all ready for the big sis. You had a lot on your mind to pack it, but she'll love it all the same. Congrats on your new little one. We'll here more joyful news next week I'm sure!

    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."

    And 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.

    Ooooo... - 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...!

    Hope 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

    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.

    I 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.
