"Oh Sweet Valentine", the last....

...Valentine finishes? I think so! This is another cute freebie which can be found at Primitive Bettys.(you can click on all pictures to enlarge if you want).
As you can see there's another of the "Love" scissor fob added, this one is on the way elsewhere...!
I should have posted this update with the last post but forgot to take a picture then. It is not much progress though but have to set it aside, will try to pick it up before the end of the month.
Thought to add a couple of pictures of Max from last year to show how big he is. I think he's nearly 9 years old now and still a bit active. He's been picked up by the owner already but i am sure we will go and borrow him when hubby is home. He's used to hubby everytime he comes here before, it seems he does miss him too as he ussually go at hubby's office room and everytime he hears the outside door open, you can see he is really waitng and so eager to see who is coming in.

I want to say a huge Thanks to all who has kindly offered to help me out with the DMC threads. Shari was very quick with her response, thanks so much. I did send back or answered a few emails-comments but most haven't appeared their e-mail address with their comments so i wasn't able to send personal message back. I should post here on my blog last night but i was so tired after the "Zumba" which was at 7pm. Before leaving home for the Zumba i was quite stressed, I was worried...angry...as Grace isn't home yet and she wouldn't answered my calls. It's dark and i know she is coming from town with her bike which takes about 15 minutes. She arrived 5 minutes before i left so glad all's well, hope she'll realise to send a text or call when she's coming home quite late. So, last night i wasn't in the mood for anything but had to pick up a book and read just to stir my mind of other things.

As always, i really appreciate your visits on my blog and THANKS so much for taking the time to leave me a comment.
I hope everyone is staying warm in this cold, cold winter!!

Your basket of Valentines Day finishes is just gorgeous! They looks so good on their own and as a collection.

Kids. They don't realize sometimes how a mom can get a bit crazy when they don't know where their children are. I'm glad she is safe and sound.

Jackie said...

yeah, i agreed. Kids just dont understand how worried we are if we dont see them at the promised time or at least they should have call or sms their whereabout.
