Maria's Challenge Card

Good Morning Ladies,

I hope that you are all well and have had a good start to the week, the rain came and washed away most of the snow yesterday, so the path and driveway where much clearer.  Milo & Bella refused to go out in the snow, they just didn't like the feel of their feet sinking in the snow.  Milo was desperate to go out on Sunday so I let him out of the front door and her managed to find himself a little route around the edge of the house where the snow had melted, it was hilarious to watch.

Today's card is Maria's challenge card for last weeks TicTacToe, using Categories: Yellow/ Birthday/Flower.

I love that cute image Maria, have you fussy cut him out, I could just eat that icecream too! I love how you have framed the image but also have it coming out of the frame, it works perfectly, drawing your eye in. 

I have to say Maria that your card would work perfectly for this weeks challenge too, as you have used lots of shades of yellow on your card. Even your flower is in matching colours. 

Thank you so much for sharing your challenge card with us, and for inspiring us for this weeks challenge too. XXX

Well yesterday was quite a busy day, the girls were buzzing around all day, making each other cakes and a lovely mess in my kitchen, I think we bought just about every kind of their favourite chocolate and sweet for them to decorate their cakes with, although I am not sure how they will work them into their designs.  They like to do each others now, so I am gladly redundant.  I wouldn't like to count the amount of hours I have spent making Birthday cakes of every style and theme.  It's worth it though when you see their face.  Apart from one occasion when we made Matt (who was and still is Farm crazy) a farm cake, that had a fenced off field with animals, a shelter made out of matchmakers and mint thins, a water trough made out of a Finger of fudge, hollowed out and filled with blue icing.  The grass was died coconut, we then added chocolate icing all around the sides of the cake and the rest of the cake board, we carefully places a tractor that was pulling a plough, which we had used to make the ploughed field lines.  I was so excited for him to see it, when he did he cried and said '' I can't eat that its covered in mud'' and believe me he wouldn't touch it.!!

I hope that you have a lovely day, however you are spending it,

Love and Hugs to all of you,

Sandra
