Mums Birthday

Good Morning All
I wasn't going to post this morning but I wanted to show you this card I made for Mums Birthday which was on Tuesday, she is 91 this year.


I love these Perfect Peony dies from Creative Expressions and want to get the stamps that go with them, that 
John (Next Door) was demoing afew weeks ago on Hochanda, they will have to wait until I go over in December.
This is my messy desk while making the card, craft space gets smaller and smaller !!!!


******




My friend Val attends my craft meet and her daughter crafts too.  Lynn taught herself to knit last year and has been busy  making hats and scarves to sell in her shop.
This is her display, dont they look gorgeous.
She did not mind me putting the pic on here.

    Morning Wendy, beautiful card, love the dark flowers to contrast with the pale blue. Also well done to Lynn, not only for teaching herself to knit but also for having the confidence to sell her knitted items. Hope it is a success. Janice xxx http://createdbyjan.blogspot.com

    Hi Wendy,
    what a lovely card for your Mum's Birthday.
    Wonderfully designed, and those flowers, and the weaving is superb.
    Happy Birthday to your Mum for Tuesday.
    Wonderful knits by you friend, and I am sure they will go like hot cakes in her shop.
    This is funny as I have done a weaving on a 100th Birthday card for a lady living near us, just haven't had time to post it yet, as challenges seem to keep me busy, as well as minding my Grand Children, and Great Grand Children,
    but I wouldn't have it any other way, as I love to look after them as my mother used to do the same for me.
    Have a wonderful weekend.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

    Hi Wendy
    Terrific card for your Mum. Love the florals.
    I too was going to mention the Sapphire.
    That's some great knits but does it get cold enough for woolies in your cuello de los bosques?
