Crafty Creations...Thank you!

It's that time of year in Scotland -

We break for summer tomorrow, so all sun

dances or rituals most welcome!

Crafty Creations has a handy

Thank You challenge this week.

Between our 3 kids we had 8 teachers presents

to come up with. So they had to be fast and inexpensive.

The glass candle holders were 50p each in Morrisons....

Mrs Lamont was Calebs teacher this year

she has been wonderful for him -

school is a bit of an inconvenience for Caleb!!!

Gets in the way of bug hunting....

The tags were made using my

Teacher Thank you set.

Hope was there on hand to

"help out"

Lots of fab thank you creations

to inspire from the team this week

pop by for a look and we'd love you to join us!
