lollie bags

For my birthday day this year I convinced a bunch of fantastic friends to join me for lunch by the water at Manly. As per usual for winter, it turned out to be a rainy, windy and all round yuck day. So I thought it was only fair to reward them with little gifts for them all to much on whilst they all ventured home. Final product above!

I did have fun baking and putting these together.
Everyone loved them. It's not very after you get lollie bags when attending a 25th birthday celebration!

Love... ?

Who's love makes your ride worthwhile?

Wedding Invite

Well you could have imagined my delight and excitement when this lovely

little brown envelope turned up on my doorstep yesterday afternoon.
It was a very creative looking, hand made/crafted wedding invite from

some dear friends of ours Simon & Michelle who are due to wed this October.
In such excitement I jumped on the phone to inform my dear friend that I have received my invite in the mail and I was happily filling out my RSVP card as the conversation was took place.
The lovely Shell informed me, that not only had she handmade all the invites herself

(not even I did that), but wait - it gets better.....she hand stitched the design into a card first,

scanned it to make the template and then added the text around it.
WOW! What a crafty little one.
Michelle I'm so proud of you! You have defiantly inspired me with this one.
If only I was getting married (again). Until then I'll have to add this one to
my inspiration wall (the fridge at present) and continue to marvel at your handy work.
