Albert's Birthday

Albert's Birthday card

It was Albert's birthday on last Sunday he was three, he had his birthday party today. This is the card I made for him.

If I had had more time I would have attempted this again. It is supposed to be a bird of prey. One thing about making animal cards from hand made felt is that it comes apart easier, I need to make animals that have bigger body parts to make them work. Part of the wing came of here when I was dry felting on the detail, luckily you can't tell. But hey live and learn, the next ones I make will be better.

We went on a picnic to the Zoo on Albert's birthday, I was supplying the crisps, but I also made some Vegetarian sausage rolls with the left over pastry form the antipasti tart I made for my Easter BBQ. I used this recipe which is a Delia one. The ones I took on the picnic disappeared quickly, however the pot I took to work lasted three days, one person told me that they were not my best!

Cheese and Onion Veggie Roll

They went down very well with me though, I need to adjust to having a working oven though! Old habits and all, I fear that I might be burning a lot of things in the near future.
