You Make Me Happy Card

Hello,

Today I'm sharing a card that Faye and I made.  I did the cutting.  She made the punkin. She even sponged the edges to give more depth.  She did the stamping too.

  Some of you knew Katie from Katie Sew 4 Fun.  Last week Katie surprised Faye with two Fall dresses for the American Girl doll.  Aren't they adorable?

I got Faye another American Girl doll, Ivy,  for her birthday last month.  Back in March the company offered free shipping so I ordered the doll and kept it hidden until Faye's birthday.  Children  birthday is very simple in our family.  They like pizza and ice cream cake for their birthday.  As for Victor and I, we never celebrate our birthday.  I don't get it.  We never blew birthday candle.  How come we still get old? lol

I thought Saige was pretty but this Ivy doll is even prettier with the black hair.   The doll looks so pretty in the dresses that Katie sent.


Thanks for stopping by.

Doily Card

Hello,

A quick card made with left over quilling flower and origami bow.

Summer is still around. The temperature is still in the 90.  Many people complain about the heat I on the other hand enjoy every minute of it.  

That is it for today.

Duck Tape Tom Shoes

Hello,

I tried this duck tape tom shoe last time but they didn't turn out good.  I decided  to give it another try  and I got it this time.  I crochet chain stitch for the edging.



Click here for the tutorial.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Super King Size Crochet Afghan Finished

Hello,

I started this super size crochet afghan a few months ago.  I didn't expect to finish it so soon but I finished it; however,  I do not like it.

I think it has to do with the colors and the design.  Plus it is so big. How big you were wondering?  It is bigger than the king size flat sheet.  I finished the edging using the crab stitch.

I am keeping this for now but I will definitely be taking it a part next year.

Thanks for stopping by.
