Crafty's advent day 8

Tony has decided that he would like to be a piece of ribbon!  Every evening I go home and play with ribbon and he is feeling a little bit left out.....but Tony this is ribbon season.....everyone plays with ribbon this time of year.

While at Ally Pally in October a really nice lady tried to impress on me the fun and joy of knitting....I would rather crochet then knit.  Knitting takes so looooooong and I can not do it while watching telly!!! Anyway I listened and I tried (I really did try, I promise), all the way up the motorway on our way to Dublin I knitted my heart out. 

I thought it looked a little bit "plain" for the little girl I was making it for, so last night I added the ribbon detail.

Do you think Sydney will like it?

Thanks for such kind comments about my christmas cards, I am not a card maker and would much rather have a needle and thread in my hand then a punch or sticky pads! There was one comment that I think really needs our bag of snowflake ribbons and that was Yvonne.  Does it snow in Austrialia?  Please email us your address Yvonne, not sure we can promise the snowflakes to arrive for Christmas, but I promise they will not melt!!!

You are all enjoying the Gingerbread makes, they are all fantastic.

Carol these two guys are great fun, I love the detail.

Oooh I like this idea from Fairy Crafts, a 3d card very clever.

I have always wanted to have a play with these beads Karen, but thought I would have to wait until Syd was a little older.  Maybe I could buy her some for Christmas and we could play together, great card.

This caused a bit of a stir (sorry!) in Paris Karen, we had to cable tie it to the stand so many people were picking it up!

 

Look at Karen's detail, isn't it wicked.

A joy of tags from Linda, very elegant.

Another smashing display of goodies, thank you all.  Please do not worry if we have not shown yours yet I still have loads to share.

Keep warm.
