Little Additions for George William

Hello there I hope you are enjoying your weekend, I have just finished prepping for my class tomorrow and I am watching a bit of Strictly before jumping in the shower and putting my pj’s on, can I just say this is the second lot of pj’s as I spent the whole day in the pair I was wearing since last night Winking smile, I love pj’s days.

I told you yesterday that lovely Jane my downline, brought a lovely baby boy into the world last week and this is the card I have made and sent them.

It uses the Little addition stamp set and I really love this set, is fab for building  nursery scenes but equally versatile for other occasions. I am just cross with myself that I didn’t use a green teddy bear for the corner of the cot. I think it would have made a big difference to that lower corner, hindsight huh?

Colour scheme is Crumb Cake, Wild Wasabi, Soft Suede and Bashful Blue. The scallop shape is a fabulous die for the Big  Shot machine and I have used it quite a bit lately. Here’s a sweet idea made with the same die and some of our fabric.

I made 12 of these aromatherapy pillows to take with me at Convention for a organized 3D swap. I am using mine as a car freshener but they are designed to be used in the microwave to release they’re wonderful aroma.

I was so lucky because I used the Thermomix to mill quite a large amount of spices to fill those pillows. I have used cinnamon bark, cardamon pods, cloves, coriander seeds,and vanilla pods after scrapping the seeds out to make some vanilla extract to use in my baking. The spices were mixed with oat bran making them safe to heat up in the microwave.

Well have a wonderful rest of the weekend see you again soon. till then big hugs xxx
