Flowers, flowers everywhere!

Hello There.....Happy Wednesday!

I hope you're well and having a lovely week so far!

Don't you love flowers? I do! There are so many different ones, all so pretty in their own way. I To be honest I'm a big plant fan too....many of you know that I'm growing my own mini tomatos in my kitchen, along with some peppers. I also have a pineapple plant and a lemon plant! I love growing things!

Anyway, inspired by pretty flowers here is my card for today.....

 
Isn't she pretty....and more importantly wouldn't you love a big bunch of flowers like those?? They are also sooo pretty! I've used floral papers, along with a dollie and some plain blue paper to create the background. My image has been coloured with my Promarkers and I have added some sparkle with some mini gems. I have added some more mini gems, and some beautiful paper flowers.
 
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
 
The Paper Shelter - anything goes
Top Tip Tuesday - Birthday Gift (those pretty flowers!)
 
I also thought I'd share my latest bake with you.....
 
 
Hmmmm....yummy! The ones in the blue paper cases are peanut butter cupcakes and the ones in the pink paper cases are vanilla cupcakes. Both are topped with vanilla butter cream and a sprinkle of black sugar. I really wanted to add some homemade caramel to the peanut butter ones, but I burnt my caramel!!
 
I'd like to enter these sweet treats in the "bake sale" challenge over at City Crafter Challenge this week. They'd like to see creations featuring baked goods....or anything baking related. Hopfully these fit the bill!
 
Don't forget to pop by all the blogs mentioned to see the gorgeous DT projects that have been created this week!
 
Thanks for popping by today,

Clean and Simple

Hello there,

hope you're having a good weekend...mines been very relaxing. Joe has been away all weekend at a Drifting event so I've been doing lots of girlie things! Spent Friday night eating popcorn and watching girlie movies, yesterday I visited my sister and we went for afternoon tea in The French Tarte in Surbiton and today I went shopping! Bliss!

I've also made time for my two favourite passions.....crafting and baking! First off I'll share my card with you...and this time I've kept it clean and simple to join in with the challenge over at Allsorts this week:


I love this image, but I usually use it with lots of pink backing papers and glitter...this time I decided to keep it simple and let the image shine. I've stamped the sentiment directly onto the card and added the image using 3D sticky pads to really make her pop! I think it works quite well. I'd also like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Anything Goes - Anything Goes challenge
The Paper Shelter - Anything Goes

Pop by all these blogs to see the gorgeous DT cards. We've also got a fab anything goes challenge over at Sweet Stampin this week, pop by and see Team Fi's gorgeous creations!

So, I mentioned that I've also been baking....I decided to keep that simple today too and opted to make some yummy vanilla cupcakes. I then went a little bit mad on the decorations, with homemade button embellishments, hundreds and thousands and a little silver glitter!!
Thanks for popping by today, hope to see you again soon.
