Firstly, mum if you're reading this (highly unlikely!) and you want your pressie to be a surprise, TURN OFF NOW!
Secondly, I have to say thank you to all of you who have entered my
giveaway - I'm overwhelmed at the number of comments you've left: and new followers - a warm welcome to you! To anyone who hasn't entered, there is still nearly a week before the winner's name is drawn, so get to it!
So it's my mum's birthday tomorrow, and I thought I'd share some pics of what we've been making for her today...

A little seaside scene created from driftwood


I like the buoys - made from tiny polystyrene balls (a bargain at 5p each!) and painted in co-ordinating colours.

Here's the card I made, again from driftwood...

My eldest son continued the fishy theme for his card...

And finally, here is the card made by my youngest - with a little help from me! You can probably tell the basic shape for this peacock is his hand silhouette, and whilst I would love to take credit for this clever idea, it actually comes from the fantastic book
Hand Art, which I thoroughly recommend for young children.
Happy Birthday Mum, I hope you have a wonderful day!
