Friday ramble

Hiya all,

Hope your all enjoying your Friday's what ever it be that your doing, personally I've been waiting in for the Asda food delivery (which we booked for between 12pm and 8pm and it came at 1pm so it was a bonus)
Writing a letter to try and get a copy of my hospital medical records from when i gave birth, i want to use it as part of my 'pregnancy and birth memory box', and i think it should be interesting reading what they wrote about everything that happened, i didn't no i was entitled to a copy and when i found out how to get hold of a copy i was right on the case.

But finally and most importantly, sourcing all things arty for my little dudes cbeebies birthday card!
Its something that Ive been waiting to do for ages, i did one last year for his 1st birthday and i was like a big kid with the PVA glue and glitter making my 'work of art' and then i got a bit teary having to send it away knowing i wouldn't get it back (i get attached to things way to easily).


Here's a video of last years card if you are interested.
(you may here some squeal's in the background, and talking that me telling my dad to shut up because i was videoing)



Well this year I'm going bigger and better because now Harry loves the birthday time, he points at the children's pictures and we have to go 'aww that's a nice little boy/girl' so I'm hoping if I'm lucky enough to get it shown this year again he will be doubly excited to see his own picture and name read out.
This year I'm going with a In the night garden theme, as that's my little mans favourite, last year his favourite was Waybuloo.

I like to be organised because you have to send your cards in 6weeks in advance if you can for a better chance of it being shown.
I will post a piccy of it when its complete but so far i have found most of my supplies, still need to locate my pens, stickers and loose glitter, so tonight when my dudes in bed it will be 'mister maker' time (or Art Attack time if you were a 90's Child like me).

Hope you all have a lovely weekend what ever you get up to

Love Lucy x

  2. awh I want to do Jared a card on Cbeebies too but not until he's a bit older because he hates TV at the moment- it bores him!
    and oh my gosh I didn't know I was entitled to my hospital record! I'm going to look that up now, as I want a birth story too!
