Sister and Niece Visit - July 2009

Flower Photo

This is a photo I printed out onto photo paper. Wouldn't it be a great idea for your sister's birthday to print out an old photo of both of you and use it as the focal point of your handmade card.

There is no one like you

This card was inspired by Nicole at Papertrey Inc. Her blog is fabulous and I encourage you to visit it often. I am also in love with Papertrey stamps. Her blog can be viewed at http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/

My card is with a different stamp set and I added a button and gem in the middle of the flower, as well as stamped on the ribbon and created a scallop edge along the bottom.

Crochet Flower

This is not the best photo, and if I made this again I would use a smaller button in the center of the flower.

My sister is here visiting, and its her job to crochet me a zillion flowers. I tried - its hopeless.
