Sweet Treats


Well this is a rare occurrence, I am posting this live. Normally I schedule my posts in advance but I have been so busy with other things, sewing, LOTV samples for Hochanda shows next Monday and magazine work that I haven't had time to make anything else to share on here. 

I wanted to play along with the sweet treats challenge at Allsorts and found this yummy Hobby House topper in my stash. It was already diecut but I wanted to soften the edges so used Tattered Rose DI on the edges. The papers are some old LOTV Dress Shoppe ones. I added a doily, enamel dots, lace from Crafty Ribbons and some bunting from my stash, some of which has cakes on it. I found the most appropriate sentiment amongst some sentiment stickers I have had for years,

I would also like to enter the anything goes challenge at The Ribbon Girl and bright and cheerful at Simon Says.

I shall be scheduling my post for tomorrow later today as I am out early tomorrow for the hospital craft fair. I have my first LOTV Christmas samples scheduled from Friday. You are going to love the new images and they will be in rubber as well as digi, which I know will please many of you.

It seems much fresher this morning, certainly last night was cooler, so hope it won't be as hot as yesterday. The poor garden desperately needs some rain. Watering every night is getting to be a bit of a bind and not as effective as a good rainfall.
