Evie's card

At last I have taken another photograph of the birth card I did for the latest addition to our family.  The flowers on the card were the ones used on the wedding invitations for Emma and Steve's wedding - I thought it seemed appropriate.

Knitting

My daughter doesn't want my new grandchild to be in pink all the time - so I have made this for her.

A very productive weekend

Wow - I can hardly believe all the things I have done this weekend - no housework - but who cares about that!  Here is the cardboard book I have made as a lasting memory of the crafting weekend that Angela held for us last month.

Sorry Belle but I don't have a photograph of the gift you made
The end

A tin

As you can see I have been busy reading my July Craft Stamper magazine.  Not too bad a result, I didn't make the cards for the inside as I am using this tin for storing my binder rings (well I think that is what they are called).

Evie's book

Evelyn Hope is now 6 days old and I have completed her little book.  I have added doodling etc to the inside pages but basically it is the same as the photographs I posted a couple of weeks ago.


I have now 'personalised' it just for Evie.  It is not a work of art by any means but I have enjoyed the making of it and I have learned a lot, which is good as it is my first attempt at anything like this.  Several of the pages I really like, some are OK - one or two it might be better without and two pages are stuck together, hopefully, never to be seen again.  Overall I am pleased with the result just hope Evie and her Mum and Dad like it too.

I can't believe it

My daughter gave birth to her first child last Sunday - Evelyn Hope weighed in at 5lb 14oz - I made the new family a lovely card and I cannot find the photograph to let you all have a look!  Must remember to take a photo next time I go visit my beautiful granddaughter.
