Now instead of sobbing into my grey hair I decided to embrace my coming of age with lots of treats & celebrations :)
I had an 80s night out with my lovely friends, a meal out with my fab family & a visit to Blenheim palace in the gorgeous sunshine with hubby & my cherubs :)
And I'm really gonna milk this ... a trip on the London eye had to be postponed, we decided visiting London the same weekend as a big footie match & the marathon was a bad idea so I still have this to look forward to. I've never been to ladies day at Ascott so that's booked up. Oh, & a girly day at a health spa is calling me later in the year. I mean, come on, what's not to like about turning 40??!! :)
Onto crafty things now, an old school friend of mine also turned 40 a few days after me so here's the card I made for her. I'm loving the lace & bakers twine that's so popular at the moment. Or butchers twine, as one of my lovely crafting friends keeps calling it :)
And just to get your taste buds watering, there's a pic of the birthday cake I made for myself. Yes, covered in maltesers & minstrels. Yummy ...
Take care & thanks for popping by x

You should have told us Tam. We'd have made a bit more of an effort the week before if I'd known it was a big one for you. Enjoy all your treats and make sure you well and truly milk it for as long as you can! K x
