{Dank u well}


Sorry for the delay girls. the past week's been very busy indeed i havent had the chance to even sit down and even stretch my legs. we have some guests staying over for a week and hardy's away since monday. monday was also Aidan's birthday, he is now 3! we had such a wonderful time and ended the day with a story of what happened exactly 3 years ago. and guess who ended up crying!?

Will share the gifts i've made for him and his friends as well as teachers soon. (p.s: Dank u well is thank you in dutch)


In the meantime, i'd like to thank each and every single one of you for being so incredibly patient. thank you! i know you've been eagerly waiting for the draw but i had to lend my computer to a friend. we did drew up a name last monday, as promised but didnt get the chance to let everyone know who the winner is... to those who joined slightly later, i'm sorry you guys are a tad bit late as we already drew up a winner, but look forward to the next one! i promise there'll still be tonnes of pretty yummy stuff!



I asked Aidan to pick a star and he picked one.... (should have focused on his hand and the star instead!)



... the winner is ...

Ms Daisy!!!!!!


Looks like your lucky star is shinning upon you this time my dear! will email you soon to get your address! hope you'll enjoy all those sweet baby stuff!

.. and the LUCKY winner is..


Good morning girls! i woke up today and cant wait for Aidan to pick a winner for our giveaway! he finished his glass of milk and cornflakes and later had a slice of bread and right after he was done with breakfast, i asked him to pick one circle as our winner!Thanks ever so much for participating! i'm now compiling stuff for the second giveaway soon! thanks for letting me know a little bit more about you girls.. it has made me smile indeed!



Almost everything inspire me- from fabrics to music, fresh flowers to gardens... i buy magazines and admire all the home furnishings and interiors. shop windows and displays... and the internet too is my source of inspiration but if you really must know, currently its music! i sometimes sit down with everything around me not knowing how to start, what to do, but once i have my music on, then everything will then flow! the range is from country to rock! french to jazz- (dixie chics to kings of leon, carla bruni to billy taylor) i know!! what a range! all depends on my mood (and the season too! i'd normally put a fast song during winter and a jazzy one in the spring!) i just have to have a background music when i craft.

What about you? what kind of music do you like? do you craft with the music on too?




Anyway... thought i'd share another today. here's a card i made for a friend who welcomed us to her home in Dubai last summer. she bakes cute cupcakes! we had a wonderful time in Dubai even with the temp. of 47c!!

Thanking you for stopping by today! do hop by again for my 2nd and 3rd giveaway! you might be the lucky one!













And the lucky one for September's giveaway #1 is...

NURAIN

Congratulations Nurain!! will be in touch to get your address! enjoy them!


Many thanks girls, and much love,

[Treasure]


My son and i have enjoyed our thursday outing yesterday.. we went to a pet shop and saw some gorgeous rabbits and hamsters. we then did our groceries and return a few plastic bottles, we bought some books, cars and a tractor at the toy shop. we took our time to stroll... i'm just loving my time with him! i love ending our days with the 3 of us on the bed reading stories, recalling what happened during the day and plan what we're
going to do the next morning! pure bliss!


He is at playschool now, and i have a little bit of time to myself till lunch time. i'm busy helping a friend who just recently opened a shop. she's giving away gifts and gift vouchers for her shop and i need to help her decorate the gifts! a hundred boxes of them!

It was the launching of her new shop last week and i brought flowers and made her this card. a true friend is my most priceless treasure indeed. i'm glad a have a few good 'treasures'!



I love reading the comments for the the giveaway. you girls are the sweetest! i will let you know what and/or who inspires me when i announce the winner. i've got a whole bunch of them!! its still not too late to enter the giveaway, just hop by here. (you know what, i wish i can give all of you a little something!!)

Its almost the weekend, any plans yet girls? i'm off to the market with my boys tomorrow to get some fresh flowers for our home and hopefully will craft some baby stuff this weekend. whatever it is that you plan to do, smile and have a lovely time (yes, even when you do your chores! smile! you'll enjoy them more!)

Love always,
