Feeling a bit more upright today lol.
Pretty nice day outside and I hope it stays around!
The garden is looking a bit worse for wear and the house

A wee cracker!!


I had a play with my cracker dies again,
this time I used the gorgeous Like an animal dsp.
This paper is so lush and perfect for Valentine,
Anniversary, wedding favours etc.
I used one of the small dies from the set to cut the hearts
and stars and added a sentiment to both and closed
with some nice ribbons.

Valentine Gifts




I made a few more little gifts for Valentine's Day.
These little boxes where bought in the Clearance Rack
and come with a little sticky sealer.
So cute and easy to make up for any occasion.
I have filled mine with love hearts.


Another little gift, this time a small pillow box made
using the gorgeous Like an animal dsp.
I added some red hearts to match the chocolates
and inside there are 3 hearts and one inspirational quote.
