2 male me to you Tatty Teddy birthday cards

1st for my brother in law:

It was missing something in the bottom corner so I added the stars which I think finishes it off

The tatty teddy was a lovely topper I was given in a crafty supply gift from my mum

2nd was a card for my fiancé:

This time the Tatty teddy was decoupaged

The tiny balloons were from a punch that I've had for ages and not really used.

I used the same paper (from the me to you range) & textured backing card on both of these as the colours went so nicely together.

Christmas cards

Here is a selection of Christmas cards we made this year

First creation I made with Christopher that we sent to Scotland: 

Popped the presents up on 3D pads

6 others work in progress:

6 others finished:

Christopher had so much fun making these.  We also made snowman cards:

Then I made a few simple photo cards, these were the designs: 

The photos were the most important part of these cards, I kept them simple and made them so the photos can be removed.

This was a last minute card made very late on christmas eve to put a gift voucher in after we lost the card it was supposed to go in. Lol. 

Christmas Giant Cupcake

Here is my Christmas giant cupcake creation. Not for anyone other than us :o)

Started off with a giant cupcake trimmed:


I put buttercream in the middle of the 2 layers and then covered the rest in buttercream:


I then surrounded the bottom with chocolate fingers and secured it with some ribbon, it needed a box and a half worth of chocolate fingers.


I then piped the buttercream using my Wilton 1M nozzle, used yellow smarties, some dr oetker soft pearls and a giant chocolate star to decorate :o)


This should satisfy my craving for cake :o)
