Chocolate gift idea

My tutorial today is some gifts for my shoppers this month.

With Sale-a-bration! just started I have been lucky enough 

to have a few lovely customers shopping already so I thought

I would make a start on their thank you gifts.

I got these lovely long bars of chocolate and dressed them up for posting.

They really are nice looking when finished.

You can get these bars in B & M stores if you fancy having a go.

Flowering Foils Chocolate Box

My final video for the week and yes,

I'm using the Flowering Foils again....sorry!

But they are just too nice not to use to jazz up a bar of chocolate!

Perfect little gift for someone or for Easter.

Plus making these videos really took my mind of things :)

You can watch my video here

This time I have cut the flower from the paper and coloured with my blends.

It has been cut out twice so I could layer it up.

The paper colours so beautifully and so smoothly.

to clap for all the people who are putting their lives

on the front line for us!

My two daughter-in-laws included!!

Most of our residents are elderly and it was so lovely to see them

popping out and joining us.
