Crafting a bit

I've been wanting to post all these photos from the little gifts I made for my Dad's birthday.
Here's a frame I embellished with some Ikea kids fabric I love and a crochet flower.
First I used some modge podge and then made some cuts to start embellishing the frame.


And that's how it looks like wiht my little kid's photo in it. They look so serious and big in the photo. I just like how close they look; is a "brother & sister" photo I love!
Oh, and now this is one of the cozies I love to make for the Ikea mug! The pattern is available at Etsy! I made also the button with fimo! I love making little buttons!
Oh, and talking about buttons! Look what I got for a great price at Etsy!!!!! I felt like dreaming when I received the package!!!!!!!!! Thanks to Art by Heather Supplies!
And now, I am sooooo happy I did read about the CK sale in one of the blogs I reaad every day. The prices were just outstanding and I am so happy everytime I get into my flower bed!! lol...
Just for dessert look what we got for my Dad's birthday dinner!!!! The cake in the center was the one I made with mocha buttercream and almonds!
