Today's Crochet Project

Spring Card


Used this card for Mother's Day, my Mom loved it.  We always get her flowers for her porch and they last nicely through the Summer.  But this year I decided to make her something that she would be able to keep (I also gave her a nice hanging basket of flowers).  I made her a card that has a crocheted Daffodil pin on the front.  I crocheted the flower using DMC floss in two shades of yellow.  After I crocheted I used starch to give it a nice stiffness.  I attached a pin to the back of the flower then added it to a card I made using cardstock, ribbon, tissue paper and a vellum printed insert.  Please email me if you are interested in the pattern.  I have linked this up on  My Merry Messy Life Blog, take a look at all the great things on the site.

    1. Thanks! It is actually a pin so it comes off and my Mom can wear it (we are both big pin wearers).
