Before I show my desk this week, I have to show you these photos of our Royal visit. The Queen and Prince Philip came to open our new hospital this afternoon and our school had prime position at the door. Unfortunately the camermen from the press stepped in front of us when we were taking some of our photos, but nevertheless we had a great view. On the way in she gave us a big smile and a wave - one of the other teachers got a brilliant photo (she's taller than me!!) - so I'll have to get a copy.

At least she didn't need to use the umbrella in the back of the car! We only found out yesterday that we were invited, so the children spent the morning making flags! They were very excited but the little ones got pretty tired standing, as we had a very long wait.
On to my desk this week - not a lot happening at the moment - too busy with end of term stuff to make many cards. I had made some cards last week for the shop where we sell them, so they are still on my desk - I must drop them in tomorrow. There are also lots of bits and pieces as I haven't got round to clearing up after making them! To see lots more workdesks go to

My favorite is the card with the key! I don't know why but I'm terribly attracted to keys! Old and new! How exciting that you were able to meet the Queen. I was just watching a TV show earlier when Reese Witherspoon was gushing about meeting the Duchess of cambridge. Even celebrities get excited to meet royalty! patsy #22

ReplyDeleteBernice our very own Royal Correspondent no less! Don't you just love the colour choices the queen makes. She always looks lovely. Is that a blue and brown bakers twine I see almost falling off your desk? WOYWW Hugs from Helen 89

I always think it's the bits on people's desks that are the most interesting. And the house card is lovely.

ReplyDeleteI think you got a fantastic shot of the Queen and Prince Phillips! waving the #49 from the hills of North Carolina :)
ReplyDeleteI remember being about 10 and being in one of the schools chosen to wave at the Queen when she arrived in my old home town! Busy desk, pretty cards, hope you get done with the other stuff soon and can get back to crafting.

well you have been busy, the queen visit and so many lovely cards!! I love them all, and the one with the key, that's a good idea for a new home card! Bit late, as no internet much yesterday! HaPpY WoYwW ((Lyn)) #32
ReplyDeleteHow fun to have the Queen visit! You say you didn't have much time, but what you had you used wisely. You got a nice batch of great cards done. They all look very sweet.
ReplyDeleteI think it is wonderful how much our Queen is getting around this year. Such a busy lady for 86yrs! Great photo, how exciting. BJ#4
ReplyDeleteI liked the Queen's outfit - thought it looked like Wedgwood china!
ReplyDeleteNice cards there - you've been busy!! Unfortunately, having one of my bling bins doesn't stop you from trailing bits around everywhere - I do it with threads and pins all the time! LOL
Hugs, lLJ #3 xx
How nice of her to visit you for a cuppa, love your cards
