Happy Birthday Kristin

Cozy Cup Mug Rug (Melissa Mortenson – polkadotchair.com)

I try to use a butterfly in some shape or form for Kristin (in memory of Lynne). This year I found a lovely butterfly charm square so used it as an accent for the cup.

I have more of these charms so they may show up again another year.

Happy Birthday Kevin

Cozy Cup Mug Rug (Melissa Mortenson – polkadotchair.com)

When I decided to use mug rugs for my birthday cards this pattern seemed like a good one to start off with. I found some treat-related fabric as the accent for the cup.

I hope Kevin gets a treat to go along with his coffee (or tea).

Happy Birthday Will

Point Taken (from the Splendid Sampler 2 series)

You know your grandchild is an adult when his birthday gift is exactly the same as his Dad’s!

This card came out of the card bin and was sent off in plenty of time for Kathryn to tuck his birthday present inside the package. This is my kind of pattern where the points on the stars are supposed to be missing!

Happy Birthday Taylor

Hearts-a-Flutter (from the Splendid Sampler series)

I didn’t think I had anything in my card bin that would work but I decided to check just in case. After my cleaning-up sessions I had a bit of trouble finding where my card bin had moved to! I was happy that there was still something in there that would work.

In spite of not having the best shopping options in Powell River there is a store that stocks the Dutch sprinkles that are a favourite of Taylor’s. A collection of those went into her gift bag.
