Cards...

Some of you know that I've been making all kinds of cards for years. I've made all my Christmas cards since 1992 and a lot of others too. I've got lots of ideas in my mind and in my sketchbook and when it's actually  time to make something, I just gather the ideas and start working.

So here are some of the cards I've made this spring... 

Angry Bird themed invitations to Lauri's birthday party (made real quickly on one morning as I realized I just had to make them if I wanted to invite his friends for the party... it happens...).

Angry Bird themed birthday card for Lauri :). And the little needlefelted piggy as well. 

Birthday card for a male relative... 

Birthday card for a friend... 

...and so is this one. 

I just finished up a wedding invitation project for a friend... will show you that later. 

It's been a busy spring. It's been quite cold too... but finally, there are flowers!!! 

Love those color spots in my garden... 

Hope you're all having a beautiful spring!!!

Cards for friends

It's Valentine's day tomorrow. It's not a big thing here in Finland but I made a few last minute friendship cards today. I used pretty papers from my stash and made some cardstock heart "buttons", which I attached with yarn. Then I added a stamped "friend" and a piece of pretty ribbon. Simple yet pretty.

I crocheted an edge with white yarn for this card. I think it came out quite lovely and a bit romantic too.

Somehow I used the same color scheme in almost all of these... :)

"Friendship isn't about whom you have known the longest... It's about who came and never left your side."

Thank you for your friendship... old and new friends too! I'm happy to see you here :)!!!
