Toby's first day

Thought I would share some piccies from yesterday of Toby's forst day at school.


It was also my eldest's 8th birthday too so I made him this cake - it was a James Martin Chocolate Cola cake and tasted amazing - really moist.


Thanks for stopping by.

Funky Friday

Well - i have to apologise but I have not done a project for this week's challenge.


I will explain - this week has been manic with Theo starting back to school on Wednesday and today Toby starts school and it is also Theo's birthday. We were sent the next few week's challenges by Abi and I didn't read it properly and used a different sketch to make Theo his card!!!!

I will try and get a card made over the weekend for this challenge.

I will be back a bit later with some photos of Toby and his first day at school.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Stamping
