Birthday Card for friend

Hi Everyone
I have made this card for my friend Sandy at the craft club. She makes such beautiful cards I
felt I had to make a bit of an effort.
The image of flowers and butterfly was done using a pretty little stencil on velvet paper. I used Diamond Sparkle Medium paste by Imagination Crafts in the stencil.  It is a beautiful paste and really sparkles when dry.  The rest of the items in the card were bits and pieces from my stash.
Thanks for looking
Hope you are all OK

Christmas Penguin

Hi Everyone
I have just crocheted this cute little friend.  It was from a free pattern from Craftsy, they have a lot of freebies on their site so why not pop in and have a peep.
I really enjoyed making him, (no name at the moment).
I find crochet a bit hard to do these days, the old bones in my hand are playing up a bit so have to keep resting it, still with the very wet afternoon we had today it was a lovely way to spend a few hours.
The web site for Craftsy is    

www.craftsy.com/patterns


there are a lot of patterns to buy as well as freebies.
Thanks for looking in
Take care Sue x

Notelets and Holder

Hi Everyone
I have just made this small pack of notelets and holder.  The holder was made just using an A4 piece of card folded and decorated up with patterned paper and bits and pieces from my stash.  I seem to be getting hooked on making the concertina type of flower with feathers. They are a bit fiddly to make but look nice.  I cut and embossed the small notelet cards and chalked over the fronts to match, then made the little envelopes to fit.
Well I really enjoyed making it, now I don't know who to give it to hahaha!! I am sure someone will get it.
Hope you are all OK, take care
