Cake it is...

Who doesn't like cake?



I’m watching my waist at the minute but cake is always on my mind   :)


I wanted to do something different from a card this time round so I formed a slice of cake box in which one could put a small present.



This is the Made with Love Tilda which is one of my favourite stamps. You can use it on so many projects!


As I said the lid opens up so you can put anything you like in it. Tilda has been coloured with distress reinkers then fussy cut and stuck onto the lid. I have used some ribbon I purchased from Aliexpress which works a treat with this project.




The flag onto a toothpick says Happy from one side and Birthday from the other. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

Hope you like this quick project I have made for you today :)

Happy crafting x

Summer and all the love from the sea

I am an absolute summer lover :)


Having said that I suffered a bit this year as my craft room is in the top floor and that means lots of heat and the impossible task to work up there.


However now I organised a table in my sitting room where I am happily crafting again overlooking the courtyard and garden.


I have organised a Summer themed card for my sister's birthday with the Magnolia Tilda mermaid which I adore.






The sentiment does not show very much in the photo but you can make out WISH in sparkly green at the bottom left corner.


I have used real shells which I had picked up from a beach here in Malta



The sparkly round dots are from Marianne Design and the cup sequins are something I got from a local craft store


I coloured Tilda with distress reinkers.

I am participating with this card in the Forever Magnolia Blog Challenge Number 68 - Holiday

Thanks for stopping by :)
