Officially old!

According to my darling husband that is, lol. It is my birthday today, my 60th birthday, and he gleefully told me that now I am officially old. I did try to tell him that 60 is the new 40, and that I am only middle aged, but he wouldn't have it, I am now an official member of the Old Fogey Club :-). Thats quite enough of that, though, I'd much rather show you something pretty than talk about age.

Just before we left for France, I received a little package, which had travelled all the way from Australia. Judy from Judy's Fabrications had a giveaway a little while ago and I was one of the lucky winners. I love her rich and exuberant, colourful style, and I was thrilled to receive one of her amazing hearts -

Isn't the beadwork just amazing? 

She also gifted me with this pretty French themed tag, perfect for my French craftavan -

And talking of gifts..... I received some beautiful birthday gifts from very dear bloggy friends, which I'll show you over the next few days. They are a real feast for the eyes, so check back soon :-).

I am off now to do a little bit of birthday shopping with my DH. He wants to buy me a plum tree for my birthday, isn't that just the bestest present?
