Happy Mother's Day

I have been working on some Mother's Day cards for next week and I thought that I would share them with you :) 



The flower is from the Forever Young cartridge stamped with a face from Peachy Keen stamp set.  The purple part of the flower has been embossed with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder and some leaves have been added, they are from the Straight From The Nest cartridge. The tag had been stamped with the Martha Stewart monogram stamp set
 I Hope you have a great day!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!  With the smell of  turkey that I am cooking lofting through the air, my boys are outside enjoying the second consecutive beautiful day and it is warmish and sunny :)
I just wanted to take this moment to share some crafts things that I have made the my boys and my niece and nephew.
Baskets for my boys

Each kid got a basket in their favourite colour :)

The front of the basket

I decorated all the other sides of the baskets with grass and hidden Easter eggs
Here it's full of all the goodies

You can hear a full description of how I made this cute little basket over at my YouTube channel – thecraftnut32! If you click on the YouTube button over to your right, it will take you right there :)



I hope you have a great day :)

Anniversary Cake

It has been a busy couple of weeks and all the craziness will be over for us on Wednesday when my husband has completed his final exam of the semester. 

I have had a lot of fun over the last week making and filming the whole processes of me making the gum paste flowers for the topper of an anniversary cake. This is the first time that I have made any kind of video series, so thanks for sharing it with me :)
Once the cake is done and it is time to deliver it I always become bundle of nerves, but I am happy to say my husband did a wonderful job getting it there is one piece! Everyone seemed loved it, the couple was happy and we all had a great day!



Here is a quick video of some details about the cake:


I hope you have a great day!
