Happy 2nd Anniversary

March 23, 2014 by Mikaela Titheridge Leave a Comment

Today saw my 2nd Anniversary with Stampin’ Up! as a Demonstrator and whilst hubby and I were away for the weekend celebrating a friends 50th, we thought we’d treat ourselves to a wonderful five course tasting meal at the much loved South Lodge Hotel in Lower Beeding, West Sussex to celebrate my Anniversary. 

The Pass was truly fantastic …. Everything that we were presented with looked and tasted amazing! The Pass is a tasting restaurant, where you are sat right in the heart of the kitchen, over looking all that goes on. Our table over looked the wine pouring area and the pass for the other restaurant within the Hotel. The Head Chef of the Camellia Restaurant, was the winner of Masterchef The Professionals 2013, which we had both very much enjoyed watching. It seemed weird seeing Steven Edwards working in the flesh, feeling like we knew him.

At first hubby didn’t want to spoil the occasion by taking photo’s, but dish after dish, they came out looking ever more beautiful and the mobile phone came out to snap a few shots to share.

Do I see a spot of Gorgeous Grunge reflected in this Dessert? … 
Every dish was a taste explosion and four of the five came with a specially selected glass of wine …. a small glass. Oh my word …. How I have been spoilt.
A night in a gorgeous hotel, a new outfit, an evening of partying with friends I’ve not seen in a long while, breakfast in bed and a special meal out …. What more could a girl ask for?
Would you believe that there is Soy Sauce on the final dessert?
Well, if this is how we choose to celebrate my 2nd Anniversary, roll on my 3rd!
Sadly, the weekend has drawn to a close and it’s time for bed … but I sincerely hope to sleep well having enjoyed an amazing time … 
Thank you hubby, for being forever supportive. 
Nite all
Mikaela x

I've been having fun with the Joseph's Coat Techni I've been having fun with the Joseph's Coat Technique for the All Star Tutorial Blog Hop. This month we are showcasing the Garden Walk suite and I create two quite different cards here. One dark and moody and one quite bright and fresh. This really shows the versatility of this fabulous bundle.

A saying that I’ve lived by and am often saying A saying that I’ve lived by and am often saying to our son “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got”. 

Change can be scary but change can also be very exciting. It’s a tough one that I know many won’t understand but it’s time for change for me and this change excites me. Having worked in a wonderfully spacious summerhouse at the end of our garden for many many years, it’s time to move into the heart of our home … to a much much smaller space. Throughout this transition I will share just why. 

Follow to see how I manage to transition from my usual spacious cabin to just one end of this room. Yes, just one end, for this room will be multi functional. I’m going full circle back to where this all began and I cannot wait!! Of course there are things about the summerhouse that I will miss, but there is way more to look forward to. I invite you to follow and see just how I organise my new craft room. 

Excitement is brewing and hubby is working hard to get some wall panelling fixed in place before the carpet and furniture starts to be installed.

From #ArtisanDesignTeam member Mikaela Titheridge (@thecraftyoinkpen): “Create a reverse-masked background by die cutting or punching an aperture from a piece of copy paper and laying this over your cardstock. Blend ink to form a colored panel and repeatedly stamp over this before removing your mask. Add a collage of die-cut, watercolored images, a sentiment panel, and some embellishments, and see your reversed, masked panel come to life.”

Had enough of making Christmas Cards and want to m Had enough of making Christmas Cards and want to make something for your festive table? Then why not consider creating some coordinating festive napkin rings using the Paper Florist Dies?

Over on my blog today is my Artisan project that I created a few months back where I teamed up the Paper Florist Dies with Christmas Pinecones and Textured Floral dies. I knew I didn't want the standard Holly, Berries and Pine sprig foliage. 

What colours will your table decor be?
