do you think maybe...


they want inside?
Well I know for a fact they do...they love cat biscuits & eye up the cat with envy through the kitchen door!

These girls are keeping us in a good supply of eggs still with on average 2 eggs a day wahoo!

We have been 'collecting' or 'harvesting' Autumn supllies over the last 24 hours - walnuts, crap apples, apples & quinces. Looking forward to processing some of these into jellies, snacks, pastes and desserts over the next 48 hours... just need a little more sugar & a big pot!

Crab apple jelly ... my Nana used to make that many, many years ago ... I still remember seeing the mutton cloth and muslin sitting over the big metal bucket in the laundry tub ... haven't thought about that in a while. Nana used to strain them twice ... ooh-la-la --- crab apple jelly and whipped cream on scones ... yummy!!!

New Grad

This month I used the 'Sunshine Vibes' bundle to create this layout for the Stampin' Up Artisan Design Team. Using die cuts to create stencils is a favourite way to create backgrounds for my scrapbook layouts. This bundle allowed me to do this and then to back some of the die cuts with in colour DSP.  Puffy hearts and fussy cut flowers add dimension. If you live in New Zealand and don't have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator already and want the supplies I have used, please visit: https://laramoss.stampinup.net and head to the shop to look for: Sunshine Vibes Bundle Mini Alphabet Dies Florals in Bloom DSP

  This was an easy way to get lots of memory keeping done at a crop yesterday!  7 layouts created and I put together another one from the kit today.  There is still more left in the kit box to make 2 - 3 more layouts! I made a few additions - some stamping, splattering, stitching and threads to add some texture and background interest. Head to the shop to check out this kit!
