Happy Mondays


Oh well - Sorry about the blank post I guess I clicked the wrong button when I was trying to add a photo. Just mentioning that another weekend is past and I have made some more Tomato Ginger and Chilli Jam only increased the chillis. It is quite spicy now but not too hot.

I have been playing around with some of my new papers and stamps and having fun with the Cuttlebug and Bind-it-all.


If you click on the image you can see it a bit better.

I am loving the new colours I have just got and the stamps. I am particularly enamoured by the pumpkin pie ink and the Wild about you stamp set.

I think I will have to go finish the samplers for my new papers and get a few more cards ready to demo to the troops on Thursday.

How did it get to be August 5th????




I have been a busy bee of late and I still haven't juiced all those lemons. I have however done the marmalade (yum), the rhubarb and ginger jam (yum again) and the courgette and ginger jam (not very yum at all as I overcooked it). I have also been playing with the Cuttlebug (also yum and not yum as SU have gone for the Sizzix Big Shot) here is a piccy featuring the backgrounds.


I have also designed some cute labels for the jams etc using a font called, 'A little pot'
Result! I have actually flogged some lemon curd and given a sample of the marmalade for the buyers to try.
I got my 'Bind-it-all' yesterday and so will soon be in full production of my post it notes books as soon as my order comes from SU. Guess what you all are getting for Christmas!
I have another mystery shopper 'gig' today so I'd better go and get my false moustache and fake nose out ready....
