lucky..a winner and an elephant!




I don't think I ever showed you the little journal I made for my mum for her christmas...

She has a soft spot for my elephant sketch and a huge love of purple... 

 

I just wanted to make her a little something special even though she deserves the world :)

And lets not forget the giveaway winner!!
Going back to my mum, she makes us play spin the bottle every New Year's gathering, despite the groans and protests...thankfully the grand children are all now big enough to perform the random tasks such as "hop on one leg singing how much is that doggie in the window?!" ....I shall say no more....:)
Anyhoos..I thought how better to pick a winner....this time with no ritual humiliation required!
So here we have circle of names and one empty tonic bottle (ahem!)




Can you see? Bit blurry huh?
Yayyyyyy...Its the sweetest Em at "Mimi and Tilly". Congrats to you!
This lady is a girl after my own heart, red slippers, all that sparkles, mahoosive rings and courageous honesty.


 I'm afraid I couldn't stop though..its actually quite fun this spin the bottle milarkey (well when there's no party pieces to perform...may have to suggest this to mum!!)



 So I've got a little something for Colette and Whinging Ninja too x

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend
xx

    What a wonderful journal - your Mom and I share similar loves... I love that elephant and the color purple too :)

    That is the best way to pick a winner that I've seen! Very cool.
