Hi, Welcome To My Blog

I love various different types of crafts and have had a dabble at most over the years, some with greater success than others. I believe that apart from loving and giving, being creative is the next most important thing to do. There is something about being creative that taps into something deep within us that makes us feel good with the world. But then we were made in the image of God, God The Creator... so I guess being creative will be second nature to us if we allow. The problem is that many people will not have a go because they make the mistake of measuring themselves against others... and that is just not a good thing to do. I create because I like to create, not because I have to impress anyone else or be better than anyone else. I created this blog with a lot of help from my son-in-law, as a personal scrap book that I am happy to share with others if they wish to take a look.... Enjoy <><

Chris & Paul's 25th Silver Wedding Anniversary Cake

This is a close up of the peony on Chris and Paul's cake.

I used rose cutters to cut out the petals, and stretched them a little larger, and for the leaves, I used a plastic template cut out of an old plastic tub from the leaf shapes in Alan Dunn's book.

I used for the first time, a spray which gave it a nice gentle sheen and a richer colour.

I want to thank Janet Melillo for the lessons she has given me this year which have allowed me to improve the standard of sugarcraft work I do.
