I would just love to thank everyone who sent me kind birthday wishes, cards and gifts for my 50th birthday yesterday – I was overwhelmed and really spoiled!
I’ve put together just a few photos to show my lovely day, and have also taken pics of the stunning handmade cards I received from so many lovely bloggy (and non-bloggy) friends … of course I also received some wonderful cards from non-crafty friends and family but for the purposes of this I have concentrated on handmade ones! :-)
First … my flowers :-) …
I don’t normally get bouquets much, so was really thrilled with these (most of which came on Saturday when i was in!) – l-r are from my oldest school friend Helen and her husband; my mum & dad, and my husband 
…. then with all the cards that arrived yesterday (there are 1 or 2 missing which arrived today, but they are pictured later :-) ) 
For the first time ever I had a personalised cake from M&S so I could take it to work and share with my colleagues …yummy! 
Here’s me cutting it in the office …
I had lunch out with 15 colleagues but won’t share those pics here as I haven’t asked their permission … but we had a fab time at the local Ask :-)
in the evening I went out with my husband to see “Swan lake On Ice2 – a fabulous ice show :-)
… and here are close ups of the gorgeous handmade cards I received … I was totally blown away by these and will treasure them!
Christine
(an old school friend who I met again 2 years ago after nearly 30 years!) 
Clare
(crafty friend who I used to work with) 
Lil

Totally amazing!
Unfortunately it’s back to normality today, but I have got some wonderful cards and memories to treasure.
Don’t forget that you still have time to enter my Tatty Teddy + LotV birthday candy – it’s open until May 14th!
Hugs
