Mayhem, Paper flowers and snowdrops...

Thought I'd better do a bit of catching up with my blog. Sunday we went for a walk to look at what is causing the chaos on our road. Our village is having major works done to it's bridge that will take about 15 weeks to complete! As we only live about 50 yards from the bridge you can imagine the traffic problems caused. Between us and the bridge is the post office, the chip shop and the butchers and as you will have seen from previous blogs we live opposite the church. You can imagine the traffic that therefore need to use this piece of road. I have told all my customers to use our drive but getting there isn't easy when they have to fight their way through queues of traffic waiting at the traffic lights. Mayhem!

This is a couple of photos of the temporary bridge they dropped
into place on Sunday with all the mud and mess involved.







Fun day Monday was spent making some of Paula's gorgeous paper flowers. These are the onse she made me the gorgeous little kit to make so I made templates for Twiglet and our other friend who joins us for fun.



We found some pretty papers and set to.










Drawing round templates and cutting them out.









Getting all inked up!

Hey presto....not bad eh?

These are mine [blue is the colour] and......






....these are Twiglet's. Not bad for a first attempt are they?






I thought I would also add this lovely picture taken of the snowdrops in the churchyard opposite our house. Aren't they just gorgeous? Enjoy.
