Christmas Present Idea!

I made these Cookie Jars last year and sold them on a stall to raise money for charity. They make a great christmas present or for something fun to make with children! You just tip the contents into a mixing bowl and add an egg and butter and mix. I made a label with the instructions inside and attached it to the jar. 




My Designs in Sainsburys!

When I worked at Hallmark cards I designed this christmas range for Sainburys, I was shopping yesterday and spotted it in the shop, exciting! :)

Birthday Present Idea

I found this jar in a charity shop, gave it a good scrub and filled it with sweets then tied a big ribbon round it for a slightly more unique gift for a friend!


I designed this personalised paper layered card to go with her gift, it looks familiar :)

Cosy Knits!

Brrrrrrr!! It's getting cold outside! these cozy knits should keep you warm! I made these arm warmers for my niece last year. I would like to try knitting or crocheting some little animal characters this year (watch this space), if anyone knows any good books or you tube videos let me know!






I thought my phone could do with a cozy cover lol!



I'm working on a crochet snood at the moment,  I found the pattern on youtube and it was quite easy to follow and seems to grow really quickly which is always good! Click link to see the video.

Sarah & Marks Wedding

I just thought I would post some quick snaps (not the best quality) of some work I did for a couples wedding, with lots of papercut butterflies and lettering. Their theme was purple, white and silver with Papercut butterfly icons and lace. I got some lace from a car boot sale and scanned it in and with a bit of photoshop manipulation I created a unique border for the place names and table plan.
