Sophie's pillow


I finally finished this cross stitch pillow for my best friends birthday 💝 It took forever but I'm so happy it's done and I hope she likes it. 

It's not perfect but I tried my best and it's the thought that counts hopefully. We are both turning 40 this month and so I wanted to make something special for her. Happy birthday to my dear friend 💝

Stars and hearts

 

We finished my dad's birthday card 🌛


And finished my best mates birthday card 🦋

Complete with sunshine and a rainbow 🌞

You can never have too many star stickers and patterns in my opinion ⭐

Rainbows

More butterfly cards 🦋



We have started making a paper mache basket for Easter 💛 



We're still ill and staying at home as the weather is very wet in the UK. 


I was walking home from work today and saw this beautiful rainbow 🌈 and then I wrote a few lines about it:

When your feeling really blue,
Sometimes a rainbow will show for you.
Red, orange, yellow, blue,
Then purple showing through.
The colours comfort you,
A spectrum of perfection,
In a moment, gone too soon.


Sometimes wherever you are in your life, nature can work wonders and bring the sunshine back 🌞 I'm going to draw more rainbows soon 🌈 hope you have a good weekend

Daffodils


Cards me and E made together recently for family 🦋 more butterflies and the sunshine 🌞


We're both a bit ill but poor E has been very poorly this week and ended up in hospital. Thank goodness for the NHS staff who so kindly sorted her out. She is now back home ❤️ she is recovering ❤️ she has two nasty viruses, poor little love


We are staying at home and colouring in together/watching some Disney films, perfect way to get better ❤️

We've noticed the daffodils are coming out. We spotted some on one of our walks together before.

I love daffodils. They are a celebration of spring to me. Joyful yellow bobbing heads, just beautiful 💛
