A card I like!

Hi everyone, hope you're all well and having a good weekend. Just a quick post tonight to share one of two cards I made for the subscriber only pages in this month's issue of Quick Cards. I was sent some gorgeous Kaisercraft papers to make them and, for once, I loved how they turned out - quite elegant for me, lol!



Rachel had a fab birthday and is away on a spa weekend with her husband now. Last January, you may remember, I went on a cupcake decorating course with my friend, Linda. You can see what we made here. Linda has progressed so much since then and I asked her if she would make a birthday cake for Rachel. I told her she loves shoes. This is what she came up with!



Isn't it gorgeous! It tasted as good as it looked too. You can see her other creations here.
Dave is out on his work's Christmas night out tonight (better late than never!) so I've got the remote to myself and there's nothing on worth watching - typical, lol!
Thanks for visiting.

That could be your N.Y. resolution to like the cards you make, then we won't have to beat up so much when you say you don't like them lol.

and the cake! Wow! I used to do cake making and decorating so know how much work goes into them but it is SO satisfying when you make something special for someone like this. She has created a real masterpiece… absolutely stunning! The cupcakes she has made with snowmen are SO cute too!! :-))

Hi Katina, super card there girl! Ha, when QCME plops onto the front door mat I always scrabble straight through looking to see what you and Jules have been making and you both never disappoint.

NO WAY was my reaction on seeing that fabby cake. it's stunning and hard to believe it's a cake - although the taste test obviously proved the point :)

Hugs, Di xx
