More Cupcakes

Hi there
Today I am hosting a Cupcakes class by specific request.
Two of my ladies Lynn and Karen wanted to do something a little different with their children and grandchild as a summer holidays activity. I have therefore come up with a class designed especially for the 5 of them using the Big Bold Birthday stamp-set and Cupcake Wheel. The children are all girls and all love pink so we are using the gorgeous bright Melon Mambo and I have teamed this with Chocolate Chip, Creamy Caramel and Pretty in Pink.
We are making these 4 mini cards and the little bag to pop them in so I do hope everyone will enjoy themselves.

Big Bold Birthday Jessica's cards


Hi there
Today I am sharing something a little different with you as these cards are not my creations. We have had my Great Niece Jessica( who is 6 yrs old) staying with us this weekend whilst Mummy and Daddy had a well deserved mini break to Paris.

Jessica asked if we could make cards and do some baking amongst other things so here is the card set she made and the box we made to pop the cards in. Jessica did the stamping, glittering and card designs and I just helped out with the cutting out and making the base cards for her. She loves making cards, is a very neat crafter and I think she has a great eye for design already......what do you all think ?

We also made a card for her Mummy's birthday but we cannot show that one until after next weekend.

These cards were all made using the Big Bold Birthday stamp set which is one of those on special offer this month. This set is reduced to £19.15 instead of the usual £23.95 for August only. This amounts to a huge 20% reduction and this set actually has 13 stamps in it so if you would like to grab yourself a bargain contact me to order.

Special Thanks again



I am sharing two cards with you today (the first I have been able to create for almost a month). They are not necessarily my best card creations but the sentiments were very sincere and both of these cards were needed to say special thanks to two lovely ladies who helped me out on my Christmas in July Event day.

The first lady is Jenny (down the lane) and she worked her socks off to make ALL of the homemade cakes this time for this event. Jenny did me an excellent selection and every one of my ladies enjoyed their little bit of naughtiness that day.
The second thank you goes to the lovely Stephanie. She is the daughter of one of my regular class ladies and she kindly stepped in at the last minute to help my Mum with the serving of all the teas, coffees and juices throughout the day.

Both of these ladies were stars, as was my Mum, and I was so glad of all their help.

AWOL

Apologies for being AWOL for such an extended period. I can only say that family matters have meant I have had no time or inclination for blogging in the past three weeks.

I have wanted to share with you the projects from my Christmas in July event and will do so now. I had six projects for my ladies to make at this event and with hindsight I think I could have possibly done one or two projects less as my poor guests had to work their fingers to the bone to complete all of them.

Thank you to all the ladies who attended and I look forward to having you at my next event. Please let me know if you wish to be on my mailing list in order that details of the next one will be automatically posted out / emailed to you


SPECIAL THANKS to every one of my regular ladies who helped me make this day possible in extreme circumstances (YOU ALL KNOW WHO YOU ARE) ...... I couldn't have gone ahead without each and every one of you and I am so grateful to you all for the love and support.
