every girl needs a new bucket at some time...

Good morning everyone I hope your all well and happy...now I know the post header is a weird one but every girls needs a new mop and bucket at some time don't they and I needed a new one, not exciting but one of life's must haves so of I popped to our local retail park to scout one out...well we have three stores in a row so I tried Argos £23.99 then Sainsburys £14.98 and B&M Bargains an amazing £6.95 with a spare mop head too, now how on earth can there be such a vast difference in price and they were all the same sort of good brand...it made me shake my head which is a sure sign I'm shocked lol, so I text a friend last night to tell her the shocking truth about the price of buckets and mops and she replied with 'its only a bucket and mop, get a grip woman', I came crashing down and realised I was ranting and raving about the price of a mop and bucket how sad am I, I so need to get out more lol...my lovely Dad is home for the weekend and it is lovely to see him again, still no sign of his eye surgery appointment yet though despite many phone calls, oh well fingers crossed t will happen really soon...my card for today you will be pleased to hear has no mop or bucket on it...I used this stunning image from Make it Crafty called Elizabeth J, I coloured her with distress inks and added a little bit of glitz to her shoes and dress...the stunning papers are from Graphic45's Le Romantique Collection and is called Daydreams, lush lush paper, I finished with a stamped sentiment and a Prima metal flower which I added a beautiful crystal butterfly too...the lush sketch is from Crazy 4 Challenge challenge and I'm also entering it for the Flutter By Wednesday challenge...I haven't a clue what I'm up to today I might even do a bit of crafting, I feel in the need of some cutting I think...whatever your up to today stay away from the mops and buckets or you to may suffer from cleaning equipment rage
