Carry on Camping and My New Blog.....

This weeks theme over at..
is...
Camping.
-oOo-
I've done the whole camping thing,
as they say, done it, seen it, got the T-shirt!!!
...and have fond childhood  memories of family holidays in small tents , cooked breakfasts, fun and games!
...and Girl Guide camps (where it usually rained!)...
So... Now I prefer a little bit more luxury...as long as there is a comfy bed and an en-suite ..I'll be more than Happy!!
Although hubby is always trying to twist my arm to go on another camping trip  !
-oOo-
But saying that....
I've alway fancied owning a VW Campervan
..Dreams of disappearing at weekends for the freedom and nostalgia of a road/camping adventure ....
.....Oh and painted in the shade of aqua would be jolly lovely too!!
(on my wishlist for when I win the lottery ;)
-oOo-
I bought this bundle of wooden hearts for £2, and thought they would make a good tag base for some of the Tag Tuesday Challenges
 So for this weeks 'Camping' themed tag...
I've painted my dream machine onto one of the wooden hearts..
Now, just gotta win the lottery LOL!!

 * NEW BLOG ALERT *
Oh...I'm starting a new BLOG....
So this will be my LAST Blog post

Hi Smiff, lovely tag and those wooden hearts do come in handy as well as stars!!Love your idea of camping, not on the ground anymore, I don't think I could get up in the morning...LOL

What a bargain those little hearts were! Fab job of the camper van too.

You wouldn't get me camping either - we used to have caravan holidays at Leysdown when I was a child, but usually came home early due to bad weather!

Another beauty Jan... so LOVE your aqua VW Campervan... and even more fabulous that something you would love is painted onto a heart... your painting is awesome Jan... you will have to hang this somewhere where you can see it every day... and who knows... there could very well be one parked in your driveway in time to come... must add your new blog to my blog list as well...

Hugs
