GRACE Bunting - Pink alert!

I was comissioned by a friend to make some thing Pink and girly with the name Grace in it, so I had a whale of a time making this!

The triangles and lettering were cut on the Craft Robo, then decorated with Prima flowers and punchies. Then a sprinkling of Pebeo Pearl Touch and glitter for that sparkly look.







Cupcakes - roses and flowers

I have been so inspired by this wonderful blog... now obviously this lady is a professional and been doing it a while, so I have a long way to go. However I figured if my cards look half decent, decorating cakes can't be too beyond my grasp!

Anyway, I spent some of my birthday money on some cutters, my sister gave me some too, and some fab glitter that just HAS to go on everything! The idea is that for my friend's birthdays, they'll get cupcakes... beautifully decorated.

Here are the first experiments... don't look to closely! And of course, they looked better in real life, and tasted lovely too!


These are some of my experiments with butter icing roses. Found some fab videos on youtube that really helped, check them out here. Some great tips on how to make the icing, what the right consistancy is, and how to actually pipe it. All I need now are some decent piping bags and tips. Do you have any great hints to share with me?

Ismaki 27/04 - Baby card

Oh it was so nice to do a bit of crafting again this week.

I had to temorarily forget I had a pile of washing up to do, as I just needed to create! A lovely couple at our church recently had a baby, and I had not got round to making a card. I used this week's sketch from Ismaki. The additional challenge was to use purple/violet.


Ingredients:
Paper - Anna Griffin and The Works
Stamp - Magnolia
Flowers - Prima and other.
Punches - Leone Em and other
Brads - Basic Grey
Pebeo Pearl Touch
Lace, ribbon, ricrac and stamens from stash.

A nice suprise...
