Tres Leche Cake...Shabby Roses...and vintage "Bebe" slips......

Picked up two sweet little "Bebe" slips for mixed media ....Love when I can find these and not have to pay and arm and a leg for them... and some trims...isn't she cute!...I'll use her somewhere...
Perfecting my shabby roses this afternoon..
Made a couple pins....



The more you do these...the better you get...I think!



Tres Leche Cake...(Three milk cake)...
Seriously Ooh-la-la...

Recipe was on "Oak Cottage Recipes" site....
