Hi, Welcome To My Blog

I love various different types of crafts and have had a dabble at most over the years, some with greater success than others. I believe that apart from loving and giving, being creative is the next most important thing to do. There is something about being creative that taps into something deep within us that makes us feel good with the world. But then we were made in the image of God, God The Creator... so I guess being creative will be second nature to us if we allow. The problem is that many people will not have a go because they make the mistake of measuring themselves against others... and that is just not a good thing to do. I create because I like to create, not because I have to impress anyone else or be better than anyone else. I created this blog with a lot of help from my son-in-law, as a personal scrap book that I am happy to share with others if they wish to take a look.... Enjoy <><

Graham's Disney Birthday Cake


With a trip to Disney World USA happening in June, Graham was wanting US Dollars to spend on his holiday. So this cake was made with that in mind.
The base and castle are rich fruit cake, covered in marzipan and regalice.
The bushes are marshmallows covered in royal icing and the tree is made using a crocodile clip on a stand, covered in icing to look like a tree and of course the leaves are real money.
