T stands for ……….thrilled!

Hi everyone,
Yesterday a package came through the letter box

I could see through the plastic a mangled envelope 

I feared the worst, whatever was in the package would surely be ruined…but no, like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis this beauty had been wrapped inside another plastic layer!

A gorgeous card by my teamie and blog friend Lula! Thank you so much Lula and to our Royal Mail for dealing with this to prevent further damage!

On Sunday I went a few miles away to small craft supply show, I knew that there were some exhibitors that would have just what I wanted! Hubby came along too to keep an eye on me…though not my spending, in fact he treated me to some stamps(having chosen one set for me to make a card for him!) I will show you these tomorrow though.
After we had eaten a picnic lunch we decided not to go straight home but to have a walk in the fresh air so we set off via the scenic route to Dunham Park.
I wasn't up for a long walk so we didn't go into the Winter Garden as we did a few weeks ago, but enjoyed a circuit that took us past the lake and the clock.

 The moat was not asccabm as last time and as you can see there were lots of visitors as it was the weekend!

I don't think I showed you this last time

The field by the car park is still waterlogged, though it is drying out a little!

Today I am joining Bluebeard and Elizabeth for a weekly meet up with the Tea gang!!

I have started to make some cards with the goodies I won!

 If I did drink tea this would definitely be THE cup!

 Neither of these cards have a sentiment at the moment and I may add  something else to the bottom one, which is using up some paper that I normally wouldn't use, as I am not a great fan of orange. I am quite pleased with this so far though. 

These are some bits and pieces ready for the next one!

We are off to the cinema this morning - a Silver Screen one, so we get in for £3 each, with a cup of coffee too!
The film is Brooklyn, one we missed first time around and has won some awards!

I will be visiting later, so for now Thanks for looking, Chris
