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 <><

Nina & Graham's Wedding Cake

This cake was designed by my daughter and made by me for her wedding.

I did however put on one detail she did not ask for... the stylised initials they used on their wedding invitations.

These initials were made using teal diamante. Of course I had to give a warning about removing them thoroughly before cutting up the cake.

It was easier to get this deep teal colour than I thought it would be.  I bought Regalice that was already coloured royal blue and then added a lot of teal coloured powdered food colouring and fortunately it worked.
