Tuesday Treats..... the Bright & Cheery Yellows...

Going off the plan for a day!!... please bear with me...

And edited to ADD! The Clearance Rack has been updated... Just click here or on the picture below to go straight there... 
And if ordering... don't forget to add Host Code 4WATQC4W for a free gift from me!
Back to the post...
As these treat holders are so bright and Easter-ful that they have to be shared sooner rather than later!
Don't they make you feel happy!! All really fabulous treat holders... Gingham Gala at its best!

These are a selection of the 20+ table favours that greeted me at our Post On Stage team meal on the Saturday night... talk about treated!! And having the meal is such a lovely chance to catch up with everyone... both socially... and creatively!!
Thank you Rebecca Deary (Fable Friends Tag Topper Mini Egg holder) and Anne Williams (Yellow Fable Friends with egg in basket) and you other 3 who sadly have not added names to your beautiful work!!! Hopefully I will be able to amend this post with your names as the day rolls on... Thanks Anne...

Though bringing this lot home and not eating them is STILL proving difficult... but I am only a couple of pounds off a key weight target!!!
So I have resisted so far!! And yes... no Easter Egg eaten either!!
But these really will be lovely treats to have once my "end game" is reached... which WILL be a matter of months (not years!!)

3D Sweet Treats...

And there's more...

As explained in my post here... we demos like to meet up on the Saturday evening for a post-On Stage meal ... catch up some more and share a sweet treat or two... and here is the beautiful table setting I was presented with last Saturday night at Zizzis in Solihull..

And here are the treats close up... thank you so much girls... beautiful!
And apologies for this very quick share today... but not only have I got back to back classes this week...
But my mum is not good at all... so I am very stressed and meeting myself going backwards...
Good job I am (very almost) perfectly OK after my radiotherapy treatment... 
So please do not worry if I do not achieve my usual daily blog post service for a  few weeks...
It just may have to be...
But it won't be because of me... I am feeling great!!
And I will be back to it as soon as I can...

And a sad story about this last Malteser reindeer picture (though Angela may not be happy with me!!!)... just in case any of the team didn't know...  
Angela spent all her time making the 28 or so treat holders to pop her treats in on the day ... but then left the packaging at home!!! Don't you just hate it when that happens...

3D Thursday... Chocolate Makes Everything Better Treat Boxes

Little box with lid designed by yours truly to hold my favourite ball off chocolate!! Whether in Red, Gold, Black or Copper... But a box that would also fit the other ol' golden ball itself...
Made for 20 special ladies.... that spent time with me and each other on the Saturday night after On Stage 2018 in Telford... These were the table gifts that greeted them at our favourite On Stage team outing at Zizzis! And we all had a lovely collection... thank you for my other treats friends!  I felt truly spoilt... it is so wonderful to move in such creative circles with such clever people!!

I will come back to this little box another day... but I will point one thing out... as it is something that I hadn't ever though to do before... until it came to the lid...

I wanted the stripes to all be vertical... on all 4 sides around the lid... which isn't possible when you glue the flaps of a stripy paper on the inside of the lid as you would do normally!! So I went "out of the box"... and just stuck the flaps to the outside instead (on the sides)... perfect stripes all vertical...
Decoration care of Lemon Lime Twist & Tangerine Tango Foil Frenzy stripy Papers for the lid... 

Along with a stamped Stitched Shapes die cut small square using a More Than Chocolate greeting ... and finished off with a stamped and 3/8" circle (retired but still going strong!) punched chocolate... and a gemstone...

And here are the 20 together... actually 19... as the 20th had already gone off on an adventure of its own elsewhere...
And here we all are at Zizzis...
 What a great team of girls!!
And with special mention and thanks to Pip our waiter... who knows how to take care of a large group having a great meal out!!! Still can't believe he remembered us from last time!!
