Hello! Morning, afternoon! Sorry I haven't been around! Not enough hours in the day!! Happy WOYWW!? As for the coming up ATCs swap for the Anniversary, I'm definitely joining in with that!! I'm house/dog sitting for at least another week and a bit. So>>>not a lot of Crafty stuff done...although I have been stamping with a new stamp and die bug set by AALL &CREATE< which arrived in the week with other crafty stuff...and made a 'no cutting' box, hmmm yes...I nipped home on Monday and took dogs with me, to fill my garden waste bin...only to find out later, that I hadn't paid for this year...so they didn't take it....how mean!? It's still April after all....never mind, it's all 'bin' sorted out now.
I really like the stamp and die set. The bugs are quite big. The only thing is, when you die cut them, the Fig number is a little too close, so on some of them and bits get cut off....
I'm joining in with Altered Book Lover's T For Tuesday with my cup of Ginger and Turmeric Oraganic Infusion...quite tasty. I've actually saved some of this tea in a jar...was going to show you that last week, and some T dying, but with the Kitchen still an on going and the dogs I ran out of time...

WELL, it's very hot in the sun room...so it's time to go do something else. And seeing I'm dog sitting, I'm taking them all (Lola's here too) back to mine, to do my other bins, ready for tomorrows rubbish collection. It's all go here!...Thank you for stopping by.
Super bug stamps and dies. Hugs Bj#6
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you were OK having been missing in action, lol . Good to see you today. Helen #3
ReplyDeleteCute bugs Lyn. That tea looks delicious too. Glad you managed to get the bins sorted. I had to pay again this year too. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah
ReplyDeleteOh I love your bug stamps and dies! Very nice!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun that you are dog/house sitting, especially since your house is a mess with the builders. I hope it all gets done soon for you to enjoy.
Happy T-Day,
Lisca
They have wine tasting and whiskey tasting, why can’t they have tea tasting. I would to sample different teas. I saw a lady pushing two westie types in a pram yesterday. They wore harnesses and looking as if they couldn’t wait to get to their destination. Happy WOYWW. Angela #11
ReplyDeleteGood to see you, love the bug stamps but then anything by AALL and Create seems to be just my thing at the moment. Love your little friend too. Sending woyww hugs Angela x10x
ReplyDeleteNice to see you back, it sounds like you’ve been crazy busy! The bug stamps are fab and Lola in the pram made me smile xx
ReplyDeleteHugs LLJ 5 xx
Dear Lyn, I'm not surprised you haven't gotten around to blogging; your life sounds very full and busy these days. But spending time with dogs is always a good thing – dealing with rubbish not necessarily (but what has to be done, has to be done 😉)...
ReplyDeleteI wish you and everyone important to you a happy Easter!

All the best from Austria, Traude

I like that stamp set too. It looks fun. And better to be busy than bored. Have fun playing when you get a chance and have fun with the dogs. Hope you had a super T day. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteYep, I have those stamps and same issue. Honestly? I found the FIG numbers useful on their own, so I snipped the stamps and cut those loose. Still very fiddly to position, but I've used the FIGs more than the bugs LOL! Life does sound a bit busy, not sure who started the idea that retirement was a slow down. The older I get it seems the busier I am. DOH!
ReplyDeleteCatching up after my knitting-day WOYWW!

Well, how cute is Lola!! I love the bugs, I think I have something similar. That ginger turmeric tea looks yummy, and good for you! Have a lovely Easter🐰🐣❤️Lindart #15
ReplyDeleteLooks like you're having fun 😊. Glad you're keeping busy and Lola looks a cutie in her pram. Take care and sending happy T Day wishes! Have fun this Easter too ❤️. Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post. Sorry I'm even later than you. I saw Sarah suggested a virtual ATC swap. Local postage is obscene, but international postage is even worse. What cute bug stamps and dies. Nice they are both in one package.
ReplyDeleteLola is adorable in her pram. Such a cutie. I was glad to see that in
nearly every photo you included your drink. Thanks for joining in for T this week, dear Lyn.
BTW, Happy Easter.
ooh T dying...interesting. I must admit I blend fresh ginger, tumeric, black pepper and lemon juice and freeze them in ice cube trays and then add a cube to hot water for my first drink of the day.....it has dyed the cup yellow so perhaps I should have thought of it as a dye. lol :-)
ReplyDeletehappy woyww

I like the bug stamps, and that tea sounds good. Thanks for visiting, about my blog background, I just used a photo of one of my journal pages. Maybe you could use some of your artwork in the same way? Happy T Day!
ReplyDeleteLola looks precious.
ReplyDeleteFun bugs and great cup too.
Happy Easter!
