More holiday crafting....

Whilst on my crafting holiday I made a few cards, anyone who knows me knows I love cupcakes so I couldnt resist buying these cupcake shaped cards. I decorated them with some scraps of paper and added ribbon and a few gems. I also finished my January 25th page. I was at work on the 25th of January and forgot to take pictures...oops! So my page shows the highlights of January rather than what I did on the day!
We had lunch in the Aidensfield Arms whilst in North Yorkshire. I had a lovely sticky toffee pudding for dessert which came with a doily on the plate....I took mine home! I know, only a crafter would do that! I made the card below using the doily!
I also finished off a project that has been on the go for too long! I have collected a lot of country/chicken themed fabric over the years which I have made into 4 place mats and a table runner. I added some ric rac too, I just love it!
