Madcap Manor

Good afternoon, all! I hope you're having a good weekend. Our daughter and the Gorgeous Grandson are here - Oscar is very fast on his feet now, and quite tall, so I've been madly moving various ornaments to much higher shelves than I thought necessary this morning! How quickly we forget what small children can get up to! And how one cheeky grin can melt a doting grandma's heart! That's why I'm a few hours late with my DT post for My Time to Craft .

I have had several occasions recently for which I've been making cards, so there may be posts from me this week that are not DT cards!!

The tear-shaped purple gems are from my stash. I hope your weekend is going well. For all my Welsh friends - CONGRATULATIONS to Wales for winning their first match at Euro 16! It wouldn't surprise me if they got at least a draw against England on Thursday! :) Thanks for looking! love Mags B x
