November Members' Hop

Welcome to my part of the CKCB Members' Blog Hop.
You should have come here from Dawn      http://www.dawnsscrapbookcottage.blogspot.com

Inspired by Lynette, I used punches (Fiskers, CM,Marvy) and off cuts of patterned paper. In no time I whipped up some professional looking mini trees.Trunks were cut free hand.

Show us what you are eating!"

  6. I love your trees, so gorgeous! I love making stock too. My latest thing (thanks to Jamie Oliver) is to poach a whole chicken, giving me shredded chicken for one or two meals and a few lunches, and a few litres of lovely stock at the same time!
