Crochet scarf and hat

Recently I found some pretty and cheap yarn in my local grocery store. And when I brought it home my youngest daughter proclaimed that I had to make a scarf and a hat for her in it. So I did, well at least I made a scarf, she wasn't too crazy about the hat, so I made it big enough for myself instead.

Birthday card and survival kit boks for Kim

Back in September my colleague Kim turned 50, but it happened right after we all got sent home to work from our home offices again, so we didn't get a chance to give him his gifts and celebrate him until here in October, where we all had to go to the same company course. To make him feel old - I know, we are such nice colleagues 😁 - I had made him a survival kit box which contained items that will come in handy when you get old. Inspiration to the items I found on Google, and then I found a wooden box at Søstrene Grene to hold all of the things. Of course I couldn't pass up the chance of decorating the box, so I found some papers from UHK Gallery to decorate it with. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures from the side, so you can only see the lid of the box. Here is how it turned out:

Materials used:
UHK Gallery - Weekend collection (Friday Dinner, both sides)
Kraft cardstock
China dies - 50
Dixi Craft dies - alphabeth

I also made a birthday card for him. As always I think it is hard to make cards for men, but I am happy with how it turned out.

Materials used:
Pion Design - Mr. Tom's Treasures
Simple and Basics - Slim card set
Gittes Eget Design - Tillykke, Basis Rektangler & Flag
Marianne Design - numbers (COL1347)
China die - frame around picture
