Sarah's Baby Shower

I was lucky to be asked to help with decorating for my life long friend Joanne daughter Sarah's Baby Shower. This is Sarah's first baby and Sarah and he partner Joshua have decided to wait for the arrival of their bundle of joy to find out if they are having a boy or a girl,  I think it is nice to have that surprise.

When looking for gender neutral ideas on Pinterest I came across two baby showers that I fell in love with the soft neutral tones and a lamb/sheep theme (look at this baby shower on the Cake Blog and this baby shower on Jennifer Jones Photography Blog ) luckily Sarah and Joanne liked them too.

So here is a look at Sarah's Baby Shower

WHAT!!!! over 50 000 page views

Who would have thought ....

I want to Thank everyone who visits my blog who would have imagined when I started my humble blog that I would have over 50 000 page views.

I am overwhelmed  and I thank everyone who has ever popped into my little part of the www

I have had two stand out posts the first having over 5000 views and shared by people many times, is my post showing the Halloween Birthday Invitations I did for my daughter Ashleigh's 16th birthday party in 2009. My very good friend Anna handmade the fingers for me and I got the idea for the invitations from every crafters friend Martha Stewart

you can view the full post HERE and photos from the party HERE

the second post with over 1200 views and shared on many Narnia fan sites is my post with photos from the set of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader which was filmed just 10 mins up the road from my house back in 2009. It was a very exciting time for everyone in the Redlands and especially for me who visited the set every week day at least once, often more and sometimes dragging my children kicking and screaming after school. That is until the day we met Ben Barnes we were all star struck by Ben such a lovely young man, who chatted with everyone there including Taylah and I and also giving a starstruck Taylah his autograph. 

you can view that post HERE 

and if you like I have many Narnia DT posts you just need to click on Narnia in the labels and that will take you to all the Narnia posts.

so once again 

I thank you all

Halloween Invitations - Coffin with Severed Finger

here is a look at the invitations for i have made for Ashleigh's Halloween Party

I made the coffins using a coffin template found on Skip to my Lou's blog see here

and my very talented friend Anna made the severed fingers for me using white Craylola Model Magic which I aged using walnut ink. I got the idea for the fingers from who else but Martha Stewart see here for Martha's invitation.  I have just used crushed up leaves to lay the fingers on, giving the feeling of them being dug up ...

I just need to add the details which I will on a coffin shaped card to go into the lid.

here are all the fingers ready waiting to go into their coffins... don't you just love all those fingers.

 HERE are all the photos from the party

Happy Halloween to you all
