Our weekends seem to be so busy lately with Sean playing hockey. I did manage to squeeze in a few crafts, though.
For some reason, I love to make mini cards. This is a simple set of cards I made using fabric and a little sewing.
There are five in the set, but it was difficult to get all of them in a single shot, so here is a photo with three of them.
I also have been wanting to make fabric bookmarks. I gave it a whirl this weekend. I am still tweaking the size and the embellishments, but I like the look of the linen with a little patchwork.
amazing!
and I have to ask...whatcha reading? :)
hugs sweetie....hope you are doing well!
