Christmas is upon us folks and, I've finally managed to add my holiday range to my lovely shop. If you would like anything to arrive before Christmas please make sure you order before November 25th.
So before I show you what christmassy goodness I have made, let me tell you a little something... Clara has been up to a bit of her usual bossiness and has persuaded me to hold a competition. So, if you would like the chance of winning one of these...
... then please leave a comment on this post. Any comment will do, I won't be commentist. The competition will be open until November 17th, so get your entries in soon if you'd like your very own big fattie pudding for Christmas.
So, the shop, well there are quite a few things although not as many as I'd hoped. We have...
A few new cupcake keyrings
A cute little robin flattie for your tree, or chair!
Holiday bunting
A teeny pudding flattie for your teeny tree
and big fattie puddings for you big tree
And my favourite of all... Clara and Macy Holiday cards.
Clara is up to her old tricks and has wrapped up a special gift just for you...
Yep... you guessed it, she wrapped up Macy!
Cards are available on their own or as a set of two with a 'wrapped Macy' gift tag.
Clara has just sent out will very soon be sending out November newsletters, if her computer would work properly, so if you're a newbie here and you'd like to receive one... hello, thank you and send me an cupcakesforclara@yahoo.co.uk.
Good luck to all in the competition and a great big
THANK YOU LOTS
to everyone who has voted for the Clara and Macy snowman in the Softie Awards.
And just a quick note to my Dad, who may be reading, we love you and hope you get well as soon as possible, (he's in hospital with a very nasty gallbladder infection and stuck gallstones).
Have a lovely weekend everyone x




















Too cute. I love your work!

I LOVE the big fat pudding :) and well done on making it to the Softie Awards finals again, you already have my vote.
Also hope your dad gets well soon- I can sypathise with him as I was in Spanish hospital this week,strangely enough with gallstone symptoms from the greasy Spanish food!

I love that fattie. They look amazing... but I still can't believe poor Macy's been boxed up. Typical Clara!
Posted by: C | November 10, 2007 at 18:16
I can't tell you how I've fallen in love with your blog. I love Clara and Macy. Do you make stuffed dolls of them. Take special orders?? I'd also love a print or drawing that I can frame. They should be in children's bookstores around the world.
Hugs,
Joni
