Hello Everyone!

My husband came home last night after being at work and having been to see his Dad and Step Mum! Paul pulled out A5 size small catalogue titled “Kaleidescope”, from his laptop bag, and placed it i front of me on the dining table and siad to me “Becky said to choose £50 worth of cardmaking materials. it’s for your birthday!” I was like, “WHAAAAAAT? She’s mad! She’s crazy! £50 worth!”. So anyway, I had a good look through it and have already chosen my bits and pieces. In the brochure was all sorts and it has one of those sets of a Baby Shoe and box template (like what Jules has on her Blog) and a Handbag and shoe template card sets, so going to go for one of them. Thinking, i may go for the Baby shoe one though to give to our new arrival.

Well, I just couldn’t get over the fact I wa askd to choose £50 worth of cardmaking supplies! But managed to choose materials totallig £48!
