Last but by no means least the wedding invitations that I have completed in 5 days!!!! I hope you like my hand drawn picture of the bride, groom and pageboy...there invitations were actually sent from the little boy which I thought was a really novel idea, I made all the pockets myself as well so I am really please with the finished product....

Well that's it for me this week....tomorrow I am taking a full day off to have lunch in Maldon with my mum, down by the river....a wonder along the high road (mind there is a lovely haberdashery shop tucked away that I may just have to visit!!!!!) and a chill out...hope you all are having a good weekend...

Big hugs
