Bubble Heart by Mo Manning

When I was younger I used to chew Anglo Chewing Gum, much to my Mams dismay, you could stretch it right out and twirl (swing) it around your finger, making sure your finger was wet enough for it not to stick to it, you could stretch it over your tongue and nip it between your lips and your teeth and suck inwards to make the most refreshing clacking noise and of course you could blow the most mahousive bubble that would burst and stick to your face.

However all of this said I wish I’d come up with this idea, Anglo bubble gum would have been just perfect for it.

Pickled

I'm wondering if pickled eggs is a British thing, I love them and so does my eldest daughter, Chris is more of a curried egg fan.

I set to and made a big jar of them tonight after dinner, now to wait 6 weeks before I can eat them.

Do you make your own pickles? if so what do you make?

 

CAS The Christmas Box

Those of you that watched Create and Craft will have seen me challenge Dean to making a card, it was hilarious but totally fun, we both made the same card and although his was like the wonky donkey it had a charm to it.

This is the card that I made and his went of to a lucky viewer.

Winter Fairy Manty

Did you know that mostly I do not like illustrated fairy’s? I always feel there is something just not quite right about them, it could be that they don’t seem to come up to my expectations that I have in my memories of thinking about them as a child, yet when Mo Manning draws them I simply love them, I think it is the real childlike look that Mo captures, the little tubby tummy and navel.

I could just pinch this little one.

I added a few babs of glitter glue to finish along with some dew drops, stick pins, gems from Mei Flower and a pretty ribbon.
