Hi all,
Yesterday didn't quite go to plan. I drove Daisy round to get the bus as I was going food shopping afterwards (we usually walk as the bus stop isn't far from home). I saw her off, got in the car, and ... nothing. It was saying parking brake failure and electronic failure on the dashboard, so my heart sank, thinking it would be at least £500. I rang the AA and 2 hours later, they came (luckily, the car wasn't far from home so I went home and did the housework while I was waiting). The guy found the battery needed replacing, so although it cost money, it wasn't as much as I expected. I was a bit annoyed as I always have lots to do if I'm not working on a child free day and didn't manage to do it all, but there is always tomorrow!
Anyway, at Creative Craft, we are sponsored by Some Odd Girl. Our theme is anything but a card. I chose to make a little Easter treat box for Daisy. I got the idea and template from April's Crafts Beautiful magazine. It's quite hard to see on the photo, but I stuck cotton wool on the back for the bunny's tail. I'm not sure whether to make one for Martha or not. She won't want to be left out, but she might not leave the box as a box. She loves cutting and sticking, but when she is finished, she carefully takes it all off the paper and sticks it on her head.
Have a lovely day.

I imagine a new battery was quite a relief, we always expect the worse when cars break down.
