♥ Ceri makes... was lucky enough to be invited along to the make lounge in Islington to a stamp making workshop sponsored by snapfish. Lots of fellow bloggers in attendance, cupcakes galore and yummy champagne. We set to work on our stamps under the careful guidance of the lovely zeena shah of heart zeena.
I created a simple birds motif which looked lovely on envelopes and note paper...
Also a huge thanks to snapfish for a fun evening and the generous goody bag ...I look forwards to using my snapfish vouchers to print lots of pictures and maybe even a photo book!
♥ Ceri makes... xx The make lounge is a beautiful studio in a great location and I would definitely recommend all you crafty folk out there to check out the workshops that they run here... http://www.themakelounge.com/workshops
♥ Ceri makes... spent my Sunday afternoon indulging in craft and cake at the secret gem that is the Tooting Tram & Social. As part of a series of summer pop-up events organised by the fab SW Craft Club there was a host of activities and demonstrations to try.
Myself and Kate got involved with the fabric brooches stand that was run by Crafty Pint (...check out the web page for upcoming workshops!). A super simple technique involving very little skill and just an ounce of patience resulted in this crafty creation...
After all the nifty stitching on our fabric brooches we rewarded ourselves with a truly scrumptious ferrero rocher vegan cupcake from MsCupcake's stand. Evidence of the delicious-ness below...
A perfect way to while away a sunny Sunday afternoon, delightful!

♥ Ceri makes... got some last minute insider tickets to Graduate Fashion Week. I was so impressed with the standard of work produced by the graduates and the amount of uk based talent out there. As expected the catwalk was the highlight...
Worth checking out if you are in the area this week!

♥ Ceri makes... enjoyed a long bank holiday weekend in Brighton. Despite a lack of sunshine along with the hen group I was with we made the most of taking shelter in the quirky cafes, our favorites being Tic Toc and Marwood.
We finished our action packed weekend (...quad biking, shooting, archery, dancing, beach exploring) with a trip to Jamie Oliver's Recipease for a quick course in fesh filled pasta making. Our lovely instructor Lucy guided us through the simple pasta recipe using the super easy to remember 100g flour to 1 medium egg ratio. Once we had mixed, kneaded, rested our dough and put it through the imperia pasta machine we were ready to get filling with our simple but delicious pea, ricotta, mint and parmesan filling. Lucy showed us a few clever tricks to make different shapes and then showed us how to make a butter, mint and lemon sauce to complement the finished pasta. The results were fab...
