so exciting to get a package

Don't you love it when a pizza box arrives at the door? Especially if it doesn't have pizza in it ( although I don't mind that on occasion) I have finally got my hands on some of the new Crate Paper lines and got busy with them today.

This one is called Me and Nan and George - its from 1975 sitting in Nan's front garden with our mental dog George- he was a Beagle and not very happy if he was left on his own.
And this one is for the Design Dollies Trifecta- I don't think I've ever managed it before but the combination this month was- pink with a touch of yellow- a LO about me- and use the sketch which is below- I hope they didn't mean a LO about me now because this picture is from about 1975- taken at our village summer fair - the pony rides were an essential part of the summer fair for me- I love that you can see the village church in the background of the photo

  2. Both so pretty and yes... love the arrival of the non-pizza filled pizza box. When it comes to actual pizza, we prefer to make our own lo
