Animal Antics ...

Happy Sunday all you lovely crafters, hope you are all enjoying the bank holiday weekend, im really looking forward to having a few days chilling out, sorry i haven't been around for a litlle while but my husband sadly had a mild heart attack this week and came as a massive shock to us as he is fit and well normally and is only 34, he is now out of hospital and back at home and on the mend, thank goodness, just need to get him to take a step back and slow down a bit ...

                                          Any way.. enough of me babbling on, lol ..........
