envelope card

Thanks to my friend Shirley (her blog is here) I have been following  this on you tube to make this birthday card come gift holder for my DGD who will be 9 very shortly. 

The gift card fits in the pocket brilliantly.

As I wanted it to double as a card I adapted the instructions a bit so that it could stand up.

Not quite sure what I am going to do on the tags at the moment but might find a funny quote or put in a photo of her as a baby  and perhaps add some ribbons.

crafty day

Well it has been very dull and drear here.  No sun at all - however the temperature has risen so all the snow is melting leaving lots of puddles and muck around.  The garden is looking very sorry for itself and not sure how much will have survived.  Any way it has given me a chance to catch up with some crafting.

I have finished the LO for prompt 2 of Scrapdolly's 52 in 10 class.  See here for the prompt.

I am doing my album in a12x6 format.

The other project I have been doing is on Shimelles blog here  and this is my attempt at the front cover.

and this is the ribbon and flower I shall use.  Haven't actually done the elastic bit yet as I am waiting to see how big the album will be first.

I have been inspired by this blog post and this blog post to make this.

Having made the page for the month it is just a question of filling in a little 1.5 in x1.5 in square each day and adding a little doodling.
