I've also been kept very busy with making cards, August and September are always so crazy for me with birthdays that while I have thoroughly enjoyed making them I am still quite glad to be able to put it to bed for a little while! I was beginning to feel like I couldn't keep up with them all!
My very good friend Amanda is a sales rep for a craft company and I've been making the most of getting to play with the new goodies I ordered through her. You can find some lovely images of all her creations to inspire you here.
The other good thing is that most people have now received their cards so now I can share some of them here!
Enjoy...

Still very much enjoying crochet - I've even ventured onto following patterns! (Ok maybe not such a recent development but it still feels very new to me!) I'm very much a learn-by-doing person so a lot of the time a whole load of written instructions just didn't make any sense to me, but with a bit of time and perseverance (and the power of Internet tutorials!) I feel like I'm really getting somewhere. I have a few projects in mind that I'd like to have a go at in future but for now I'll leave you with this little owl that was requested by an old friend called Billy.
I got the pattern from this wonderful blog Roman Sock - 'Instant Crochetification' just in case you wanted to have a go yourself!
