two cards and a purse!

I received a wonderful package of flowers from a friend on SCS.  I was showing them my sister-in-law Julie, and she put together this amazing combo of a large daisy, small crocheted flower and a sparkly teal brad.  Naturally, I had to steal it and use it on a card!
  

  

When Jodi, who was over hanging in the bead room, saw it, she said it matched her sister's wedding colors.  So I handed her some of the supplies and she built a similar flower.  I made it into a wedding card for Jodi to give to her sister.
  

I had a pattern for a crocheted cupcake purse saved, and decided to give it a go.  Of course, I changed quite a bit of the pattern- I hate doing row after row of single crochet.  It has a plastic canvas support inside.  Isn't this too cute for a little girl?
  

I do wish I could see well enough to do the crochet flowers- I just can't see the stitches with the thread and tiny hooks!!

Hope everyone around here is surviving the big blizzard!
