The Last Post - of 2010!

And it's a tiger post! This time she got a lovely fluffy neck, what a throat ...



The neck is made from four pieces of striped fur, and four of the long white polar fur. Matching stripes is like a fluffy jigsaw!



Then our tiger got some teeth - no more gummy smile ...



Teddy bear makers often create pulled-toes, and here I have created - pulled teeth! Not the fangs, they are cones of foam covered in PVC, but the little teeth all in a row ...



Just want to say Fang you very much for reading my blog this year, HAPPY NEW YEAR! cat XXX

Guess What We Got for Christmas?

Mary got lots of this for christmas ...



and some new play-doh tools that everyone wanted to try!



wearing some of their sparkly tattoos of course!



Mary isn't sure about some of the creations ...



and daddy isn't doing play-doh, he is playing with his - what is that exactly?



and, oh dear, matty had almost eaten all of daisy ... oops!



What did you play with on Christmas day? Did the sun shine?

Red Onion Tarts ....

These pretty tarts are really rather sweet tasting, and are very simple to make ... I read lots of recipes on-line then went down to the kitchen and made them my own way! We ate these with Boxing Day lunch ...

the strange case of the dog in the garden ...

Mary loves dog ... but dog is still a little bit heavy for Mary to hump about ...



It's a girl dog, says Mary, Good Boy!



But it's too cold outside to play dog, come inside please!

Happy Christmas Blog Readers!

Thought you would like to see my tree, before it is raped and pillaged tomorrow! matty set up the cute nativity scene, apart from the angel who is a pole dancer as usual!

tiger tiger ....WIP - eyes!

cutting irises from acetate... cut the pupil hole first!



polish your baubles (thats my glasses cloth) and grab some UHU glue ...



delicate work ... leave to dry away from small curious people ...



and dear old grandma-tiger ... there she is!



she gazes out of the window and wonders when the sun will shine on her hand-painted orbs!



next, her neck covering! But then, the sun did come out and showed the eyes at their best ...

The Fairy Cake Mother...

Imagine my delight when my neighbour knocked on my door and offered me and my family these cakes ...



They looked pretty, they sparkled with edible glitter, and they tasted really good too!



and you can get some too, everyone needs the magic of The Fairy Cake Mother, don't you think?
