I want to see tags you would attach to a gift or a tag used to decorate a card - easy peasy, so hopefully no dodgy ones this time. The challenge runs for 2 weeks, so plenty of time to join in.

I have made 2 as they are so quick and easy to make.

Check out what my lovely teamies have to share with you here along with all the challenge details.

 How much longer can this heat go on ???? It is far too hot for me and l am keeping in the shade of a cool room in the house, with minimum clothing. On thursday out of curiosity l put a thermometer in the conservatory, all the doors and windows had been open all day and it rocketed to 46 degrees - far too hot. We should not complain as it was only a few months ago we were coming out of a very long cold winter.

I started a new job 5 weeks ago in a well known store where 'Every Little Helps',
working just 2 shifts a week 4pm-12.30am which fits in perfectly with helping out with the grandchildren. The last 2 weeks l have done full time hours to help cover holidays/sickness which has been quite tiring, one of the lovely young managers is leaving to do a less stressful job in a garden centre.......my dream job. I hope she likes this card l have made for her.

Schools are out for summer for the next six weeks and l am looking forward to having some time to myself for a change, best make the most of it with lots of gardening & crafting and maybe the odd outing too as l have not planned a summer holiday as too much to do in garden - think l will have a winter holiday when the garden is sleeping.

Thank you for stopping by and for your comments x Susan x and a new challenge over at
