Snapshots of my week….

March 18, 2010 By Spoonful of Sugar - 11 Comments

Butterfly Cakes filled with my home made nectarine jam (yummm…)

Purchases from Calico and Ivy (I went on a field trip with Susan and Janelle – read more about our wonderful exploits on their blogs)

Packages tied up with string

New Japanese craft book 

Organised my paper craft supplies (has been on my “to do” list for 6 months!)

Hope you have all had a productive and creative week!

    The nectarine cupcakes were scrum-diddly-umptious! Thank you for sharing them, and such a wonderful day 🙂 Not so much actual creativity going on here, but lots of dreaming of new projects…and that’s half the fun!

    I love going on creative field trips with you, especially because we’re on the same wavelength when it comes to all things crafty.
    BTW I still lost 1&1/2 kgs this week!

    I love the math fabric. Can you tell us what it is called? I would love to buy some of it. I would make a great child’s quilt.

    I need to get organized so badly, but I have so much on my plate right now. It’s great and inspirational to see your organization.
