Edible Flowers.

 Now wouldn't you like a bouquet like this?
My friend ordered one of these as a gift and 
I'm absolutely chuffed with how it came out.
The pink ones are a vanilla sponge and butter cream
and the lemon ones are lemon sponge and buttercream.
 A close up of a couple of the roses, 
my piping is slowly improving and if in doubt add glitter!
I hope you like them and are not dribbling 
on your keyboard!!

So How Was It for You?

 It's all over for another year!!
I hope you all had a good Christmas, ours was 
downscaled this year so not so much rubbish to
deal with today, everything is put away and the house
is tidy, I was considering taking down the tree but
was given a stern NO! 
This was my hubby's card, another LOTV image.
 I love bunnies so it was very appropriate.
These were our table favours, they contained the
individual boxes of after eights, very cute.
Whatever you are doing today i hope you have a 
great boxing day.

Oh Christmas Tree...

 It's Christmas eve!! how did that happen?
These little trees are some of the gifts I made
for those who are special to me.
 I made four of them, you can see my mini forest,
next year I plan on making lots more of them.
 This is another Lili of the valley image,they're so sweet.
A close up of the image and can you see 
the sparkle on the flowers? Love it!
Now I shall leave you all with a crafters Christmas 
verse and wish you all a wonderful Christmas 
what ever you are doing

Twas the night before Christmas, I'm glued to the tree.
I'm wondering what Santa brought just for me.
Could it be cardstock or chipboard or lace? "
Or a Cricut," I said, with a smile on my face.
And that's when I heard him, "Hi Santa!" I said.
"You know....good little girls should be in their beds."
"I know I should Santa, and now I've got caught.
But I was just so excited to see what you brought."
"Well, let's take a look in this room where you work."
He shook his head quickly, and left with a jerk.
I heard him exclaim as he put it in gear...
"You've got enough crap, I'll see you next year!"

Christmas Is A Coming!!

 A card made using one of the lovely Lili of the valley
 images, the sentiment is also from them, I've used the 
Sizzix swirl and heart punch from SU.
 A close up of those cute bears with lots of sparkle!
 My S-I-L loves my brownies so instead of just
giving her the recipe I decided to fill a jar with the
ingredients and attach the recipe to it, 
I think the different colours look great.
A look at the top, this is an Elzybells image and
sentiment, sadly they're no longer trading, 
I 've had it a few years and this was 
it's first airing, shame on me!
I will be back tomorrow with some more goodies
to share with you, hope you've all been good
so Santa will bring you some new crafting goodies.

Rock Chick!

 I'm back!
Created using the QK body and clothes which also
has the guitar in it, made up the amp myself, 
nests for the star and a Cuttlebug alphabet.
The musical note on her T-shirt is a brad.
A closer look, not sure why it's a bit
blurry, don't understand these fancy cameras!
Well hopefully I'll be back with some more 
cards to show you soon, I've been very busy
making but keep forgetting to photograph
and give them away!

my friend and help run the school fair, I should
hopefully get back to blogging in the next week,
although haven't even begun the Christmas shopping!!
