Happy 5th birthday Dexter. I know me, your mum and dad and the rest of the family miss you loads. Today is your 5th birthday. You should be running round like a headless chicken hyper on sugar and E numbers.
You might not be here physically but I know you’re always with us. I know you’re celebrating in your own way. I also know that you’re winding your great grandparents up something chronic and playing tricks on them and running rings round them. With that I’d say be careful because you don’t want to get told of on your birthday.
We love you and miss you……..have fun at your party.
Just as a bit of background Dexter is my nephew that didn’t wake up.
I made him a birthday card
I added an insert with some lovely words that mum found:
You might have noticed that there is a new picture on the home page,
This is something I did using some of the new Sanntangle stencils. It took me a few days but I hope you like it.
I’ve spent some time over the past couple of weeks thinking about different things. One thing that has popped into my head more often is “why does a damp cloth soak up water and spills better than a dry one”?
I know there will be some scientific explanation behind it and I’ve even considered googling it, but I couldn’t be bothered and decided I didn’t want to spoil the mystery.
So while you’re pondering that take a look at the tiles I’ve done over the past few weeks:
I’m not a fan of the stripy one. I don’t think I did a very good job but I’m impressed with myself for the one with the gem.
I already showed you the card I made for Dexter but I’ve made a few others. Still birthday card but this time they’re for Harvey. One card from me, one from mum and another from auntie Jean. I haven’t claimed one yet, but jit’s said to that she can fight it out with Jean for which card she wants and I’ll just have what’s left,
The one with the chest is a shaker card but I can’t really show that in a picture so you’ll have to take my word for it,
Anyway I think I have to go and make some more Christmas cards now. Pounder other things and read more about Charlie Wade.
Love and light.
