Yay!!! Thanks to everyone who helped me get to 1000 blog 'followers', I am so excited, this is such an awesome number! I started my blog nearly four years ago when I moved to a whole new continent and needed to stay in touch with my friends and make new ones. There weren't many blogs around then but my pal Tanya persuaded me that I would love it and she was right. Writing my blog (and reading other people's blogs) has gone on to become an important part of my daily routine and something that I do love to do. To be honest, even if I only had 10 followers I would still write it. So thanks to anyone who regularly pops in to say hello!
And here as promised is a little giveaway for you. It is open to anyone who cares to leave a comment and it includes some of the things I like most from our shop...
A Daisy Lane Swap Card Album and two packs of Swap Cards.
Pastiglie Leone Candies.
A bobbin of Liberty bias binding.
And a selection of cute greeting cards from our shop.
So come on, please leave a comment and I will draw a winner on 1 October for this whole bag of Lark goodness.
And thank you for reading my blog!xxx

Hark! Hark! The Lark
Hark! Hark! The Lark at Blog Heaven's gate sings,
And Lovely Allison arise,
Her Thousand steeds to water at those springs of postings
On chalic'd flowers that lies;
And winking Mary-buds begin
To ope their golden eyes;
With everything that pretty is,
My lady sweet, arise:
Arise, arise!
Even Good Ol'William Shakespeare wants to congratulate you!
:D I couldn't resist - You're The Best!
Love, Kate
