Today, my husband took me round to the local scrapbook stores in our area. I managed to locate some more 49 and Market design paper and embellies, for a vintage book I am making featuring old black and white photos of my Grandparents. I have some birth and death records, Grandpa's army records, and my Grandmother's Nursing Certificate, as well as lots of old photos. I am excited to start this book!
I used Random Org to draw our winner. The first name drawn had left a message that they were only playing for fun. The second name drawn was Clare #4. Clare, I was delighted to read your name as that is my middle name and you spell it the same way as me. In my country, Claire is often the feminine spelling and Clare is the masculine...I have spent my life spelling mine out letter by letter to ensure the correct spelling. It is amazing how many times you have to provide your full name for documents etc.

Congrats to Clare on her win! My girlfriend "Gale" spells her name with the masculine version too and she's always questioned about it. My middle name is spelled with the masculine version too, but I guess these spellings make us all unique!
So glad you have had some lovely birthday celebrations! Happy birthday also from me also if I'm late! :)
Many congratulations xx
Glad your birthday was so fun! Congrats to Clare!
