Mothers Day

The last few days I have busy in my little studio cutting, gluing, punching, stitching, pinning and generally enjoying some creative time with my sheet music.

I made some little Mothers Day gifts for both our mums

hanging hearts with crystals

Paper daisies

decoupage eggs with ribbon & lace

 

Happy Mothers Day

 

To My Mum

 

 

 and to Kevin's Mum

 

 

I hope that all Mums out there have a lovely Mothers Day <3

I decided to add a flower to my apron after all

........ in the form of a pincushion.

I made a cake for Mothers day, I was not overly tempted by any of the cakes or deserts in the supermarket so I decided to make my own

Victoria sponge

..... topped with butter icing and pink caster sugar,

decorated with a sprinkling of silver dragees.
 

........ filled with strawberry formage frais and blackcurrant jam

Delicious it was...even if I did make it myself :)

12/04 Update : I should have got around to it before now but I seem to be saying that to myself a lot these days.

I took some pictures of the lovely gifts my four children gave to me for Mothers day

Wine, Chocolates, two beautiful plants, in colours I love :)

Can you see the beautiful pink glass plant pot just behind the chocolates

There was a chocolate orange too but we ate that before I managed to get a picture

and these are just so cute x
I feel very lucky and blessed to have 4 beautiful children
