Summer Give-Aways

Morning folks on this wet and miserable excuse for a Summer Sunday morning but us Brits are ever optimistic about the weather...Wimbledon starts tomorrow and now they have a roof on Centre Court no worries about a little bit of rain interfering with play so I'll be having lots of sofa time over the next 2 weeks...will this be the year Andy Murray makes it into the final....ummmm....fingers crossed.

I think it could be a good time to have a little cheer-you-up
SUMMER GIVE-AWAY
thanks to the generosity of the lovely Charlotte at The Papeterie...hold on to your galluses folks...one set of Tim's brand spanking new Summer Seasonal Distress Inks is looking for a good home..
you have until Saturday 30th June at 8pm to get your name in the hat...
all you have to do is leave your name in Inlinkz...

And I'm not the only one who's fed up of this awful weather...my lovely Ribbon Girl chums Andrea and Mary are also trying to tempt the sun out from behind all those clouds with this yummy delicious...

STRAWBERRY & CREAM GIVE-AWAY
be still my beating heart...those beautiful butterfly charms have just sent me into raptures of delight...so what are you waiting for folks...dash over to The Ribbon Girls and get your names in the hat...the winner will be announced on Sunday 1st July. 
I'm having a "take-it-easy" spending time with the gorgeous grandkiddies day after a busy but great fun day yesterday at The Papeterie yesterday...can't say the same about the nightmare journey home on flooded roads and numptie drivers but I'll be back tomorrow to share some pics from the Distress Marker demo morning....stay safe everyone.

  1. ...the pictures on the news last night with all the flooding looked awful, glad you got home safe...have a fabby time with the little uns a perfect stay-in-doors day...we have had the International Tennis here this week in Eastbourne (a warm up for Wimbeldon a bit like Queens for the guys) but have had rain a lot this week here...it would be nice to have some British glory at the tennis especially being a Jubilee year...Mel :)

  19. I do enjoy a bit of Wimbledon, what's the chances of it staying dry? Probably more chance of Andy Murray winning this year! I was eyeing up the summer DI yesterday in the Papeterie, but resisted, spent too much in recent weeks! Thanks for the opportunity to own them Kath.

    Take care

  22. Hi Kath, Thanks for the chance of winning these lovely summer DI colours. Sorry to hear you're getting rain, typical Wimbledon weather, now famous for strawberries and "brollies". It's not much fun for doggy walks either. Fingers crossed for Andy this year. We've had lots of the wet stuff here in Scotland yesterday but we actually had nice sunshine for a good while today.

  23. Hi Kath...I'm hoping your weather gets nice, sunshine-y and warm for you. I'll be up at the crack of dawn my time to watch the festivities at Wimbledon, sure would be nice to have no rain delays on the outer courts this year! Nice to know I'll be sharing my strawberries and cream experience with you! Gotta be rooting my guys but it would be nice for Murray to break the stranglehold of the top 3.

  24. Can't wait for Wimbledon to start. And then the Olympics! Hope that the weather starts co-operating. But at least you were smart enough to put a glorious roof on Center Court! Thanks for the chance at Sir Timmie Summer goodies.
