oh, my aching back!

I should know better than to take on more than one project at a time, but that’s what I’ve done. Again.  You’d think that maybe I might have learned by now, huh?  Nope.  I’m glutton for punishment, and aside from the pain, I enjoy every minute of it!

Spent a good portion of this evening making a little surprise to go in the boxes I’m sending out for a Valentine’s Day swap.  So so cute!  I promise to share…eventually, but want to keep it a secret until after reveal day.

Last night, I was up late making gum paste hearts for a quickly approaching deadline.  That’s right, the Love is in the Air Blog Hop is on Saturday!

I’ll have all the details soon.  But for now, here’s a hint (and some of you won’t be terribly surprised), I’ve been hanging out in the kitchen.  First there was a little bit of flour action.

 

Then I broke out the sugar…and the” power tools.”

 

I hope you’ll come back on Saturday to see what I’ve been up to, and then to join in on the rest of the hop.

   I love making cookies, yours are beautiful. I am not very brave using my cake. Will have to keep trying

   The cookies look great (and yummy)! Thank you for the step by step directions. I haven’t tried my cake machine yet and thought doing something with cookies might be a good place to start. I’m going to have to get some of that gumtex/etc. stuff. Thanks!

   Deb,
   What a great job you did on your cookies. I am so excited to see so many different projects on this blog hop. Thanks for the great tips and the cookie recipe. I have been looking for a good sugar cookie recipe for quite awhile so I will give this one a try.
