Hello sweets,
back with a card I have made for my friend Heidi along with a quick knitted gift for Christmas. I want to show it on my blog before it gets too late since we are already thinking “Valentine” and Spring, right? Not here in Michigan… some of you might now… we have gotten severe weather conditions and I am grateful to have a home and a roof over my head for sure.
Heidi has blonde hair and I thought this pale color would look so pretty on her. The yarn is Madeline tosh Pashmina – which is already VERY luxurious, but I have also added for the extra cute effect a second strand of Rowan Kid Silk Haze yarn. It does look very dreamy and I hope she enjoys it.
Pattern is a simple one, since I was late with my gift for her and I needed this to be done within 2 days.
Here is a little detail shot of the sentiment
Stamps: Joyful Tilda
Sentiment: Stampin up
Paper: Magnolia Ink, blue swirl, pink ornaments
Dies: Magnolia Doo Hickey “So Lovely”, “Tall Firs”, “Holly”, “Snowflake 1” and snowflake 2, “frilly label”– Go Create for shape of Design Paper, Spellbinder ovals
Embellishments: lace ribbon, Hobby House flowers,
Other: Frantage, Stickles
Coloring: Copic markers, white gel pen
Tool: Heat gun, Big shot
Pattern source: Churchmouse
thanks for looking

A beautiful card and a beautiful knitted gift - I bet your friend loved it. There is something so special about handmade presents and you are certainly an accomplished knitter. I nearly fell off my chair when I read that you had made the scarf in 2 days - that is fast! Hugs, Tracey x
A luxurious headband and an equally luxurious card! I'm sure she was thrilled with your gift....sooooo stunning!!!!!

Beautiful card and gorgeous details and I am envious of your knitting talent, when I tried to learn all I ended up with was holes,my auntie could knit and watch TV at the same time and made me some pretty clothes for my dolls when I was little.
Hugs louise xx
