More lovely handmade goodies from friends...

I have been sitting on a bunch of pics of some more beautiful creations that I received from friends following the birth of our wee Thumper.

So without further ado...

This creation by Di Barnes is so amazing I want to CASE it, but I don't have a month of spare time up my sleeve! Di even made matching wrapping paper and tag for the accompanying gift...

...just gorgeous! The inspiration for her card and parcel came from part of the gift itself...

...an adorable Pumpkin Patch set with matching onesie, hat and blanket! Di has given details on her blog about how she made the punch art zebra...so if you want to give it a try, check it out here. Thank you so much Di!

Next I have an absolutely adorable creation by Jocelyn aka JoBear2...

Such a sweet image from Penny Black. I have not managed to capture the bling on the flower petals very well...but it is there! I love all of the texture on this card too. You can read more details about this creation on Jocelyn's blog here. This card also arrived with a lovely parcel of goodies. Thank you again Jocelyn :-).

Last but certainly not least, I received a lovely card and accompanying gifts, from my friend Kim...

The stunning strawberry basket did also contain some delicious chocolates when it arrived, but I can't seem to find them now...I WONDER where they could have got to?! Kim made those gorgeous strawberry lavender holders (complete with zillions of tiny white knots) by hand...Eeeeeek! Where did she find the time? See Kim's post here for more details.

Thank you again ladies for the lovely cards and gifts. I really do feel very special to have received them all! The cards are still up on my sideboard and attracting many compliments from our visitors.

Best wishes,
