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 <><

Sweetpeas Birthday Cake



Sheila was giving up sugar craft and passed all her equipment on to me which was extremely kind. So as a thank you as well as it being close to her birthday, I baked and decorated a thank you birthday cake decorating it in her favourite flowers, sweetpeas. I made these using Simply Heaven Sugar Flower Paste which I bought from Amazon. It was very inexpensive and it didn't dry so quickly so it did give more time for crafting.  I may give this another try. The only thing I wasn't so sure about was whether it dried as hard ultimately as the Squires. I will have to test them one of these days and compare.
