All The Leaves Are Brown!!!


Well not all of them as you can see....lol.

All of the leaves plus a few extras in case of mishaps are finally cut out and I have added some background texture to them with a stamp and Distress Ink.
Some of them are now triple embossed but they are currently weighed down to flatten them a bit before I shape them to add to the jars. They look really nice and I will show them to you once they are finished.

I thought I had better get a move on as yesterday I felt like I'd been smacked in the head with a hammer when I realised that the party is in two weeks....eeeek!!!.....and I still have a hundred miniature pumpkins to make to decorate the cupcakes. I went haring down to T***o to pick up some packs of the ready made icing before they ran out of the orange with it nearly being Halloween and just managed to get the five packs I needed thank goodness plus one pack of brown for the stem and a pack of green for the tendrils.
All I need to do now is order the cupcake cases and the sugar sprinkles and I will have everything I need.

I'm hanging fire on any meal prep until DD comes in and lets me know what she fancies. I have options for her to chose from. 
It's been quite warm today so she may not want a cooked meal.

Hope you are all having a fab day.

  2. Aren’t you the best MIL? The jars are going to look lovely and I’ll be interested to know how many are left at the end if the night-lol. We made party bags for my 65th and daughter’s 40th in the same year. I was all partied out that year.
