Pie, anyone?

Thursday, April 2, 2009

Who loves pie? I do! Fun & quick card using papertreyink's 'my punny valentine' stamp set. What's your fave pie? Mine's apple :) Which brings me to baking; I've been thinking of picking that up too! anyone knows a good recipe for to-die-for pies? I don't have an oven Oven, more like a broiler. It should work, right? With so many things I want to do but the lack of time, all i can do is just simply go buy some lovely confections from the nearby bakery. (instant gratification, yeay!)

On another exciting note, My article's up over at Scrapbooking.com! Can i hear a *woot woot*!!!

Well, there you go! I hope you enjoyed this short tutorial, pls share with me what you come up with! Just leave me a comment with a link :)
