These are the food goodies......

 Well i wanted to make somethings like i did last year but do something i ain't done and I'm so glad i did as i now have learned a few things and no how to do new things to. So here goes.

Theses are the choc chip muffins they looked abit dull so me n lee started to mess about with icing and this is what happened LOL. I started off well with the one that looks like a bauble but it was such hard work to squeeze out the icing out of a tube i had i could do it so lee did it and he wasn't going to 'mess about' doing the whole thing so that's how the faces come about lol.

Crafting goodies i made.........

I made up a few things but not as much as i wanted so now I'm going to be starting early and getting my finger out LOL. I have made these as little extra things to go in hampers along with there normal pressies people got spoilt this year along with me i was very spoilt, i no it ain't about presents and its about family, i had a fantastic day with the family other than the fall which i did when we stopped at mum n dads, back gave out on the garden path and legs went from underneath me and WHAM i went down like a sack of potato's. Luckily nothing is broken bone wise, missing abit of my thumb nail and got a few grazes, bruises, a concussion and a very sore back but thanks to lees dad my brand new red shoes ain't ruined by the mood nor is my brand new red dress, phewwwww!!! Thanks everyone for the help and cleaning of the things that needed it, i love u all!! All in all it was a great day and here are the goodies i made up ie little gifts and hampers. Next post is food :)

Christmas cards..........

Been very busy.......

Hey all sorry there aint been no post about here of late but I have been very busy making things for christmas and wrapping, shopping etc and I have a fair few things to make and a couple  of things to wrap and ill be ready for christmas :) I no I no I mentioned the naughty word Im sorry.

Im also in the middle of cleaning my craft room thanks to the gas man lol. I have the meters in the room where i do and keep all my things and there was a piles of things infront of the cupboads and I had to send the gas man away to read the reast of the streets meters b4 he could get to mine so now I have decided to rearange and put the dining room table (which is full of my big shot, Sillhouette, eclips and my grand calibur lol) not much eating goes on at that table, so I moved my table down the room and put a chair in front of the cupboards but in place where I can get into the meters when needed lol. So atm my room is a total bomb site and whist its been like that I have been doing wrapping and gift hampers but I really best get off and make a start on doing more tidying so I can get started on the other things I need to make. I have pics on my cam ready and waiting to be uploaded for u all of the things I have been making but cant show them all as Sandra (lees mum) is on here and I no she will peak hehehe.

Hope ur all well and I will see you all again soon. Have a great evening :)

Happy birthday Laura!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUNNI!!!!! Hope ur having a fantastic 18th!!!!!!

Ok so now she has received the card and pressies I sent down here is the pic of the card that took time and a day to make lol alot of cutting of small things.


This is the front and its twilight themed as Laura LOVEEEEEEEEEEEES twilight as much as me!

These are digi stamps from The Greeting Farm website and I have resized them so they would all fit on, but I did by mistake make rosalie smaller than the rest dont no how that happened. This is called Twilight Lovers. I have paired them all up with the men on the left and the ladies on the right with the exception of Jacob. As u can see he is on Twice once as 'normal' Jacob and then as wolf Jacob. This is because as 'normal' he loves bella and as wolf he loves Bella but Bella loves Jacob more when he turns to wolf Jacob, hope that makes sense LOL. 

I aint 100% happy with the inside but I had run out of time for me to do what I really wanted to do. So i stamped around the outside and then stamped happ birthday all over the place in black and red to keep with the twilight feel.

Hope u like my card and please leave a comment all of them are very well appriciated. Hope ur having a great day!

Another find which i forgot about..................opppps

Opppppps how many times have you opened a bag thats either just been put there that day or from days ago and totally forgot about it?? I know I do it as I have just done it today. Just stummbled over this bag with other things from a different charity shop and found this little gem hiding in there.

This was only £1 and Im going to alter this for something but what I dont no yet, may make it a pressie or use it for some dobbers or the embossing powders I use more LOL. I love to buy and imagine them all altered but do I really think about where Im going to put it? Nooooooooooooooooooooo LOL oh well. I have a craft room but still things seem to take up alot of room (LOL but there AINT to much there oh no!!!)

Here are other pisc of it so u can really see what it looks like from the side and with the doors open.

And all for the price of...............wait for it, wait for it.











Thats right £5 I just couldnt leave it there at that price could I? So my beloved bought it for me. I am planning on altering it after christmas as soon as I have done all the things for christmas I must get on with the tea box I have, which I am a tiny bit way through in altering i have so far painted it all one colour as a base and I have things to put on there like other paints, papers, key holes etc. I dont no what I am going to use this one for atm but im sure I will find something :) Hope your all having a great day :)
