This week on c.r.a.f.t. the challenge is paper piecing,I have never done this before so for my d.t.card i used a simple stamped image of a cat and some papers from the do-craft c.d I kept it pretty simple for a first attempt.

christmas day baby

this is my grandson nathan who was born on december the 25th 2009.

never again lol!!!!!!!

years ago i used to make cakes for the kids birthdays and really enjoyed it,i made tractors butterflies etc but have not made any for years so was a bit dubious when my daughter asked me to make a cake for her husband,mainly because it is of the vehicle he drives at work lol,hope he is pleased with it,i did struggle but i think it has turned out ok,mind you good camera angles do help it really does look better in the pics than real life.
as long as someone can guess what it is i done a reasonable job but never again hehe,think i lost the knack.
