Hi all! I had every intention of posting last night but got totally caught up with Murray's match at Wimbledon - wow, what an epic!! It was so tense I could barely watch, I can only imagine how amazing the atmosphere must have been like on Centre Court!
As well as Wimbledon one of the things I love about summer is mouth-watering summer fruits - every Thursday I buy several punnets of strawberries from our local Farmer's Market and I've been going crazy for blueberries too. Over the weekend I bought these:
And had a very productive day's cooking with them:
Blueberry and Vanilla muffins, Blueberry conserve and a Blueberry and Apple pie... like crafting I adore the creative process of baking, and they all taste pretty good too!!
Yesterday we set a new challenge over on A Passion for Papertrey - this week it's all about buttons. Here are my samples for the challenge:
I sewed all the buttons onto the card in a rough heart shape:
And made a matching notebook with my new Bind-It-All, definitely need some more practice as using this but I just love it's possibilities!
All details and info on entering the challenge (there's always a prize!) are on A Passion for Papertrey.
Thanks for visiting!

Oh my Kate, I am just gonna have to move closer to Taunton if that's what's on offer - beyond scrummy - how are you so slim?
Your card and gift are simply stunning - I love the elegance of the simplistic heart shape made of buttons x
Ooooo yum, yum! Well done you, they all look gorgeous x
*DROOL* Kate how could you post such mouth-watering, scrummy, delicious fruity treats when I'm supposed to be on a diet!! I'd totally fail if I was near that table of treats LOL! Just love blueberries (along with strawberries and cherries!)! If you ever need a second opinion on taste you've got my address!

PS - great projects
Love this card and notebook set. The buttoned heart is fabulous. I really must use more buttons!
What a coincidence. I finally got round to using my Bind-it-all a few days ago - but I've had mine forever and only just unwrapped it *guilty smile*. Have fun.
