I've been in my attic for a little time today though after a run - here's one of the things I managed to make - its for the Clarity challenge which this month is Floral.
The central portion was made using a technique for making your own stamp pad for frequent stamping. The lovely Jo Rice taught me in one of her Clarity cumbria days. Looking forward to going there again a week tomorrow! I've also used a clarity phrase stamp and a stencil.
Here's a closer view:
So there you have it - just wanted to share a couple of cakes with you - the first are made by me for the Valentine cake sale we had at school today - we raised £50.10! Excellent:
The next one is not made by me but by the lovely Nicola from Lily pad bakery in Ingleton. Its for Penny's birthday party on Sunday:
Thanks Nicola - brilliant job!
So anyway - I'd like to enter the card into the claritystampchallenge 24
Thats all for today - take care and have fun!
Big hugs
