The book of marbled papers comes in handy again

Silhouettes printed from internet images, cut, stuck to the rear of the patterned paper, cut again and stuck to card.

Step by step marble cake

My very own cake wreck

The spelling mistake was in fact deliberate. The Kindergarten (pre-school) teaching aide was leaving, so we  had a farewell cake. The cake reflected the fact that when the children met her, they found it almost impossible to pronounce her name - Miss Loth. The best variation was "Miss Fluff". I fear that if she keeps teaching 4 years old, she will never hear her name pronounced correctly! Luckily she is very good humoured about it.

All I needed was a little inspiration

Yes, been a while since I've been here. But inspired by How About Orange's origami dress card (right), and a book on marbling paper being discarded by the local library (and full of full colour plates of marbled effects), I whipped these up:


(I think I could learn something from How About Orange's photo styling.....)
