What a great day!

Hey everyone,
I had the most wonderful day out with my Mum today, it hasn't happened in a while. We went to the Claremont Craft and Antique fair, and this is what I got.
I know what your thinking but I only got a few bits as we are saving for our holiday in October.
The Whimsy Stamp and the Distress ink refills were purchased from Craft Jeanie and you can find them through Face book. https://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100001433063737
Rick and Jeanette have so many great things and they are all price so cheaply you won't be able to stop yourself.
The other pieces were purchase from another shop but I can't remember their name.....sorry :(
So I'm off to vege out in front of the TV and read my book, yes us women CAN multi task...lol.
I want to thank my Mum for a fantastic day out and thank you to you for stopping by, enjoy your evening.

something different....

Hellllo Peeps,
Well the school holidays are over so it's been housework for this little chicken but today I was lucky enough to find the time to attempt to do a chocolate bouquet. The blue one is for my Mum for Mothers Day (ssshhhhh don't tell her) and ok I admit it Jo did most of the work but I was there eating and drinking and giving words of encouragement...lol.
The second one (the pink and black one) is for a friend who is having a birthday next week and thought I would give it a go on my own, it's much harder than it looks, I don't think it's to bad lets hope she doesn't look to close...lol
If you would like to order a bouquet for Mothers day or for a special present let my know and I will pass on your details to my friend who does a much better job than me I promise
Thanks for popping by,
Maree

A gift for Jo xx

I told ya I would finish it but who knew it would be today hehehehe this is my third chocolate box they are so much fun to make, i did have a little trouble with this one but thankfully hubby was home to give a hand. The sentiment was done on the Cricut the pearls, paper and tower are by Kaisercraft ( i have added some spritz to the tower to make it shimmer) and the brown flowers are by Kaszazz I have spritzed these also to give them some shimmer. I have also inked the edges with a touch of Tim Holz distress ink.
Thanks again for popping by enjoy whatever it is your doing

A project for the Colony

Hellllloooo, Long time no post again! OOOPS
It has taken a while but with myself being sick and then one by one the kiddies got sick it has been a very long month, but I'm hoping that things will be back on track now.
This is a project I have had for a while, yep since February, and once again it's for the Colony Coffee House in Midland, ggggrrrrr still can't get the link to work, HHEEELLLPPPPPP!
I have used my Cricut to make the leprechauns, clovers and the black pot, A bit of embossing powder to make it sparkle like gold and apart from the patterned paper for the background all of the card stock is Bazzill.
It was such a fun page to do, I just hope Lisa likes it.
O.k short and sweet I'm about to go back to the table and finish a chocolate box for a friend. Enjoy your day/evening
Thanks for popping by
