Yay! I win!

Wow what a day, the sun is out the sky is blue, there's lots and lots for us to do, and I have won a giveaway!  I love Ellen Giggenbach's work, so on Friday when she said she was offering the chance to win these gorgeous paper houses, I had to have a go. 
And I won!  So they are on their way to me all the way from New Zealand, and I need to find a good spot for them.  They make me very happy, they are so bold and colourful.  So a big thank you to Ellen - go and check out her blog if you haven't already, she makes some really lovely prints as well as her 3D paper loveliness. 

With the combination of these lovely treats and the sunshine,  I am  very cheery today.  I hope you are having a great day too!

    1. Thanks love! Yes it is indeed the apple pie recipe, I was just looking at it last night actually, while sorting out my stash. I love it - I've seen it in a blue/purple colourway too, which looked great. And of course the Graziela apples are wonderful - I'll have to take a new photo with my blue and green apples and the yellow flowers added! :)

    1. You are SO lucky Tanya, you find such fabulous things! Bristol has great shops and markets, but to be honest I don't get out to most of them because of having small kids - I tend to rely on lovely online sellers such as yourself! ;)
