cakes and makes.

I have been busy with baking
this last wee while.
Muffins and cupcakes have found
their way into work.
These were carrot cake with
vanilla cream cheese frosting.

And a last batch of roast beetroot chutney
until new beets come into season.

The colour of this was just amazing,
the smell of hot vinegar not so much!

Have made a few cards too.

This one was from a stamp that
had all nine wee dog pictures
all on the same frame.

I decided to cut each wee frame out
coloured the dogs and layered
each wee stamp up before sticking down.

Slightly different but same idea for
the end result.

The next card was one a friend asked
me to make, her friend was retiring
and looking forward to traveling,
now he has no ties to keep him at home.
He has no pets but a wormery!
She asked for worms and a passport.....

Two birthdays in one week.
My sister's son Martyn
and my Brother's daughter Eilidh
have birthdays two days apart.
They were both 18 this year.

Eildih's card was one we made
in Kate's class at the House of Sugar.
As soon as I saw the card I decided to
keep it for Eilidh.

Pixie Dust want shiny cards this week,
so mirror card I think applies.
Lili of the valley want ribbons and bows.

Last card is my take on

It is also my take on Erika's sketch
over at Sugar Nellie, including optional extra
of making it distressed.

Cute card Thursday want some distressing too.
Crafty pad want spots & dots,
the spotty paper is I think paper mania.
My time to craft want some scalloping.
(is that even a word?)

I am trying to keep up with blogging
and just when I found time
Blogger was being naughty!!

I hope you are all well.
Much love Teen xx
