Knitting - Baby Cards


As you might have gathered I like knitting so this card incorporates the two things I like doing.

It is a very basic card again, the DP is from papermania, cocktail sticks from kitchen, knitting wool, ribbon and beads from stash. As I was just playing around with this card I die cut BOY out with my quickutz, but I'll remove and put the recipients name there instead.
I'm hoping to have sometime to craft tonight, but I've had a particularly bad morning as I was going to pay some money into my account, when I had my purse stolen from my handbag. When I contacted the police they said there were alot of pick pockets around at the moment seeing that we are now in the build-up for the silly season. So as you can imagine I am feeling fed up and a few pounds lighter (not body weight either).

AWOL


I've been absent for so long as I have been busy knitting socks for my local knitting shop (for her display). I've made some fabby stripped over the knee ones, though I did forget to take a picture - I'll do that next time I'm in the shop. I've also been offered a part-time job there so as you can imagine I am overjoyed - lovely wool!!! - though it is dependant on childcare.

Anyway I have decided that I need to sit down and make some christmas cards so I came up with this one. It is very easy, papers from stash, the N is a stencil from Basic Grey (I think) cut out of bazzil basic card stock. I've cut out the Noel with my quickutz Katie dies and heat embossed in white Happy Christmas. Hope you like, I do.
