Hooray hooray! I made a Christmas card!
I even dare say it's my first ever. Many more to come, I'd say.
Although, you could use this card for many occasions.
Hmmm, so technically it's not even my first Christmas card, is it.
Drat.

Wishing you a beautiful weekend!

ReplyDeleteDear Wendy
ReplyDeleteYour first Christmas card looks so beautiful - I personally love the dark grey/black and white effect which also looks kind of grainy plus the lovely embellishing. It is such a beautiful Madonna and child image!
Now those tatting tutorials could start any raw beginner off. They are so easy to follow - if only I could extend myself into a new area. I love to knit and crochet,
spin and weave but rarely have time for these crafts these days.
Your gifts to Dorthe were presented so beautifully too with all your bird images in blues. She absolutely loved everything she received.
Have a cosy Sunday dear Wendy,
Love, Suzy xox
wauw wat mooi en bedankt voor de filmpjes. Ik heb zin om het uit te gaan proberen. Mijn moeder had vroeger een oud spoeltje voor frivolité maar ik geloof niet dat zij het zelf ooit heeft gedaan.
ReplyDeleteDear Wendy,
ReplyDeleteyour card is just stunning and thank you so much for the tutorial. It is something I for sure am going to try to do.
Hugs,

My dear Wendy,
ReplyDeleteI too love your card, with the most beautiful madonna and children image. Your choice of laces and fabric, is perfect for the black/grey center piece, and the little brownish colours on the back and on the picture frame.
So very beautiful, dearest.
Thank you for the taTTING videos, ...maybe another time, after christmas ,it would be fun trying. Like Suzy writes, also I haven`t chrocheted or knitted much and never learned tatting!
Have a wonderful sunday afternoon and evening, my dear friend.
Hugs and kiss
Dorthe
A beautiful card. So love the softness and your image with the fun layers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Tatting video...I've most of the items to do it, just never had time or an instructor !.. His Aunt is 102 and still makes a tatted Cross, but she don't give instructions !!! Have a beautiful Sunday.
Your card and tatting are beautiful. I appreciate your sharing the tutorials for tatting, however, I prefer to buy the finished product. Would love to have one of the crosses with a button, so whenever you get one to sell, please let me know. nancythedove@aol.com
