Being Creative with dessert!



Millionaires baked by me

April has come to an end which means that it is time to share with you last month's Being Creative project!  For those of you new to my blog, Being Creative is the project organised by Julia Crosslands at her blog. 

April's theme was dessert! Mmmmm!  I have plenty to share on this amazing topic from baking, cards and art journaling.

I love to bake and have taken this as an opportunity to bake a little more.  In the latest issue of Simply Homemade, there where a couple of recipes I wanted to try out - Caramel Shortbread (or Millionaires as I call them) and Brownies! 

I made the Millionaires as a present fro my Mum for Mother's Day as she loves them and the brownies to take when visiting Babybee!

For our last Stitch 'n' Bitch I baked some gorgeous biscuits!  For Christmas Shinybees gave me a fab present, a large glass jar layered with the dry ingredients to make these.  I loved them so much I have made them again.  Everyone enjoyed them!

I also made a cupcake themed card and found this page in my art journal.  The page was all about my favourite food and I had recently had a Cartmel Sticky Toffee Pudding (with very thick cream) and cut this off the cardboard cover!  I adore this pudding and if you have never tried it you really need to!

My mouth is now watering following all that discussion about desserts! 

In my next blog post, which will be later on this week, I am going to announce my first giveaway!  The prize is very pretty and feathery and everyone, no matter where you live, is invited to enter!  Keep an eye out for that post for your chance to win a Gingerbread Bunny design!
