Happy birthday to me!!! - and two lovely awards

This smashing award has been passed on to me by two lovely bloggers Beryl (Bik's Home) and Kym. If any new visitors have not visited their blogs, now is a good time! - it is a pleasure to see their work.



I am supposed to nominate 10 other bloggers to pass this award onto but that is so very difficult when I think your blogs are all so wonderful and inspirational and I have more than 10 fave blogs. Any of my followers are more than deserving and welcome to put this award on their blog.

Kym also presented me with this lovely award.
Thank so much Kym

A lovely award

I was thrilled yesterday to receive this lovely award from Coldwaters2. Thank you very much Lorraine. It is so kind of you to think of me.


I now have to confess to things I am addicted to - eek!

My family - can't do without them
Cardmaking
Pretty ribbon, paper and flowers
Licorice comfits
Home grown veggies
Walkers crisps

Seems a lot of food so my last one is

Blossom Hill white Zinfadel, hee hee.

Now here is the hard bit!!

I would like to pass this on to
Ali, Jane, Sheena, Lorraine, Kirsten, Beryl, Kym.

This has taken me so long everyone will have got it in the meantime.

Take care all and thanks for looking in today

Award

I have felt a bit out of sorts lately and this award from Sheena certainly cheered me up.
Thank you so very much Sheena :-)

The rules are:
Link to whoever gave you the award and pass it on and link to 5 others.
You also have to write down 5 things you are addicted to!

1. Cardmaking!!
2. Crafty blog trawling
3. Wine gums
4. Buying craft stash
5. My family who always come first, yes, even before crafting

And now I have to pass the award on to 5 others. As Sheena said, this is a difficult task. Every one my blogging buddies deserve it. All fabulous blogs.


My five are
Ann, Beryl, Sandie, , Cynthia & Suzanne

Thank you all for all your encouragement, inspiration and giving me the chance to see your wonderful work.

Honoured again!

I have to thank two crafters I hold in the highest regard, Suzanne and Ann for passing this award on to me.
It is a joy to see the work they share with us on their blogs, and Suzanne's workshops are eagerly followed by so many of us.


The award has such a great sentiment behind it and here is what it says:
This blog invests and believes the PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind blogger’s aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight blogger’s who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.

I have a dilemma as to who to pass this on to. So many of the crafters I admire have already received this, and don't know if it is acceptable to name them again.
For the past couple of days my time has been taken up with family matters, the happiest one today being my youngest grandsons 6th birthday.
I will add the names of who I nominate later. Apologies and I hope no one minds about this.

Thank you ladies, I am honoured to receive this from you.

Thanks to Suzanne for the Wylde Women Award.

I have been given this award by the extremely talented and greatly admired Suzanne, who is an inspiration to us all.


Thank you for this Suzanne. I am truly honoured.

Rules:
1. You can give it to one or one hundred or any number in between - it's up to you. Make sure you link to their site in your post.
2. Link back to this blogsite (http://http://www.tammyvitale.com//) so Tammy can go visit all these wonderful women.

And, remember the Purpose of the Award:
To send love and acknowledgment to women who brighten your day, teach you new things and live their lives fully with generosity and joy.

I could be here all day as there are so many wonderful people I could give this award to. Everyone of my favourite blogs deserve this, but most of you have already had it awarded so I would like to pass it on to
Beryl
and
Chrissie
