Joshua turns 2!

We had a lovely 2nd Birthday party for Joshua....I made an amazing train cake which I was extremely proud of! Just didn't want to cut into it!
It was a bit of a squash and a squeeze to fit everyone in but had a fab time! Joshua got lots of great presents and loved all the attention he got during the day :)

Our break in the forest...

We had a great time at Center Parcs, Winfell Forest, last week. Stayed in a wooden lodge amongst the trees and the wildlife! It was the perfect place to chill...lazy mornings followed by coffee at Starbucks :) Eating out in the evenings with swimming and wondering about in between! We had to wrap up warm because it was quite chilly, but what do you expect in January!
We are already planning our next trip...when our little family of 3 will have become 4 :)

Here are a few photos from our forest break....

Grace & Archie Canvasses

I made these two canvasses for my niece & nephew Grace & Archie as part of their Christmas presents. I used felt and stitching for their names and a little detail and mounted them up on patterned paper and card....I will have to make one for Joshua!


Daisy Elephant

This is a cute little sock elephant I was asked to make for a baby girl called Daisy. I personalised the elephant by stitching on a 'D' and a tiny daisy to the side of her.


Christmas Decoration


This is a little Christmas decoration I made as part of a 'Secret Santa' present I put together!!
