Very Happy News and Mail and Cakes

I made the Top Three at Try Stampin' on Tuesday with my Silhouette Ladies for last week's challenge - yippeeehhh. This is just fab! Have a look at the blog, the sketches are so versatile.
And then the very happy snail mail. A few days ago I received a huge parcel ... but (for a change) I hadn't ordered anything and I got all worried, you know somebody maybe having hacked into my bank account or so ... so I phoned the lady from Glitter Perfect where the parcel came from ... and guess what ... I won. And it is a HappyCut machine from Artemio. How cool is this? The Crafts Beautiful magazine printed one of my cake photos (the one with chocolate and strawberries) and the accompanying letter ..... I still cannot quite believe it, this is so exciting and I am ever so grateful. It is such a wonderful surprise ... soon I need to have a proper play with the machine (lol).
 And I will have more time as I have finished a huge cake order: Christening cakes and cakes for a farewell. It was all good fun but also a lot of work. I quite liked how everything turned out in the end. Wishing you a lovely week, Petra.
