Birthday Party

My friend made me these wonderful cupcakes!

Yummy

Even the sandwiches have to have a bit of decoration.

Trifles in glass painted glasses!

I set up a craft table in the conservatory for the kids (and adults!) to play with.

We had a BBQ but missed taking a photo in action hehee

Pete loves doing BBQs

All the men gathered outside under the marquee in the rain. Its a man thing!

My friend

Pin the tail on the donkey

Another friend

It was great seeing everyone dressed up!

The same friend that made the cupcakes made the cake too! How ace is this!

I'm going to leave you in suspense but my next lot of outgoing mail is very exciting! I have created some new stationery which is a kind of collaboration with my friend. I hope you all love it! Ohh-eee!

Also- Shannah I have your mail chick but I haven't opened it yet. Big thank you :-)

My favourite artist is...

...the one and only Rob Ryan. I first came across his work at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park back in 2009 where he had a special exhibition.

I instantly fell in love with his amazing paper cuts and beautiful verses.

There were only a few Rob Ryan products around when I first came across his work but now there's lots! There is a lovely range of greetings cards available now so I bought some and framed them in the lounge.

I have a collection of Rob's books too. I often look through them first thing on a morning and find something meaningful and inspiring for the day.

In 2011 we had a lovely trip to London and went to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition which is an annual event which I absolutely love! Rob had some of work was displayed there too.
