LIM CASE and HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT

Hello from London! I am halfway through my amazing trip in the UK. I came over to host two Happy Little Stampers Retreats. The first one is done and dusted... we had an AWESOME time in Manchester and I want to thank all the girls that attended. I loved meeting each and everyone of you - some again and some for the first time. It makes my heart sing to be surrounded by such wonderful and creative people.

ANNOUNCEMENT: My son and daughter-in-law had been at the hospital the day before I left for DIL to be induced... I was hoping to have Nanna cuddles before I left but no..... So, when I got to Dubai, I frantically got the wifi so I could find out if anything had happened.

Let me introduce to you my Grandson - Benjamin Hayes. Born 6th November at 7.54pm by cesarean section weighing 6.6 pounds and 50cm in length. A professional photographer took amazing photos when he was only a day or two old. Be pepared for some awwww moments...








I am just bursting with love and excitement. I seriously can't wait to get home to meet this adorable little man :)

I also have a card to share with you :) I was lucky enough to stay with Sarah P and Anita in Cumbria after the HLS Retreat. Best thing about visiting with crafty friends is that you get to raid their stash!

Here is my card:



This is for a CASE challenge over at Less is More. It is Susan's Birthday and she has made a gorgeous card for us to be inspired by.. Please click on the link to see the card. I am creating this post on my phone and I'm finding it a challenge in itself lol.

I will say ta ta for now because this one finger typing is giving me a cramp!!

    I congratulate you, Kylie and Benjamin's parents. These pictures are amazing and will be the most beautiful reminder of those extraordinary moments when the little man has already appeared among their loved ones. When he will be an adult, there will be photos that document something extraordinary ...
    And the card is beautiful, elegant CAS, just as I love the most.
    hugs,
    BozenA

    Lucky folks to enjoy crafting retreats with you! Congratulations on being Nana to your adorable, handsome Benjamin! I think the 'happy dancing' Santa is a reflection of what you're feeling inside - and what you'll be doing once you see that little darling in real life! Travel safely! We'd like photos of you AND Benjamin when you return, please!
    Hugs~c
