Tiny Baker Tia Magnetic Book Mark and Lemon Curd Layered Cake

Hi all, hope you are all well, all good here, Morgan enjoyed his camp, got wet and had to relocate because of the rain, but came home happy!  We are still keeping busy and just wondering where did August go!?!? 
 
For my inspiration this week over at the Mad for Markers Store Blog I have used Tiny Baker Tia,  from Some Odd Girl and is available from the M4M Store here and created this magnetic bookmark.
I have used copics and kindyglitz for added sparkle.

Made this above on Sunday as I was given a bag full of lemons from a neighbour earlier in the week, doesn't look quite the same and as you can see my poor deprived DH cut a slither before I got chance to take the photo lol!  Made extra Lemon Curd for him to put on his toast for breakfast!  Been a while since my lot fought over cake, they had this one divided equally between them lol!

3D Paper Napkin Zebra Journal

Hi all, hope you are all well, all good here just been super busy at work and family stuff, we had the pleasure of Rosanna having the baby for the weekend from school as part of her health programme, so not much sleep was had for the new mum lol!  She had a friend sleepo ver with her baby too.  We got to the Fantastic Quilt show held in Melbourne on Sunday with thebaby that was a different experience lol!  Anyway finally got to take a class to do 3D Napkin art and this is my effort.  On the front cover we used moulding paste to create a 3D effect.  Loved the class and looking forward to trying this technique again.  I love my new journal lol!
