Birthday Cakes

John is studying insects this term in class, so every afternoon we are out the backyard finding another specimen to take to school. He really loves finding them and talks for hours about the adventure he has in getting them. 

SO.... for his Birthday cake for school, I made these neat little cupcakes with an assortment of insects and frangipanis.

Here is the container with the Spiders and Frangipanis. Thanks to Rhonda for the inspiration for the flowers.

Birthday Boy

It's amazing to think it was five years ago that John was born. He is now at Prep. and loving all the activity and socializing.

He loves to colour and write stories. He enjoys building and making things, but most of all , he loves to help me stamp.

Brayer Cards

Oh what fun I have been having! My good friend Nikki has been hard at work , studying Michelle Zindorf's Brayering techniques, and has handed her knowledge onto me.

It's like opening another door to stampin'. I had been doing some basic brayering, and couldn't quite get the depth and dimension that Michelle gets, so it was soo nice to finally "get it".

Wouldn't it be nice to do a class with the "Master". Michelle makes it look so easy.

This card is made with the latest In Color Range, and  Summer by the Sea (retired) Stamp Set.
