Knitted with Love



Hello! I finally have my first Christmas card for the year to share! Took me long enough.... December will be here wayyyy too soon for me this year! It's the first of the month so it's time for another ABC Challenge: C for Crochet Flowers! It's also my turn to share on the Sugar Nellie blog, so I decided to combine my posts and use this super cute fairy, Knitted With Love. It's no secret that I'm not gifted with my sewing machine.... before I broke it I could only manage to sew on my cards and not on actual fabric! I have a sweet friend I used to work with though, who makes the most gorgeous knitted creations, and has been so kind to share some with me! So she was my inspiration for this card! I used Unscripted Sketches #130 for my layout. I dyed the flower with Glimmer Mist, although it doesn't sparkle quite like I thought it would. I still think it matches beautifully! I also added a lot of stickles to her wings and mixed stickles with flower soft for the trim of her hat. Thanks for looking, I hope you can join us over at ABC Challenge for a chance to win a great prize!
