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.

Recipe

Stamps: Heart Print Sentiments
Paper: White, 2008 Bitty Box Basics DP (Papertrey)

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.
