Calorie-free Cake

I crocheted this little cake for my girlfriend, Leslie, who celebrates her birthday today.  Though I originally had other plans for it, I kinda ran out of time, so just glued it to card stock and later added a birthday message at the bottom.
Along with many other little gifts spread throughout the day, as well as a real cake baked by another friend for the occasion, I sent her this photo that was taken of us last year.
Wherever you are, it is your own friends who make your world.  (Henry James)

Wishing you all a wonderful week!

  4. Hi Tammy just catching up. Love the crocheted cake and card and the jars collected and reused. I do the same thing. The jar I like is the Tostitos Salsa jar. Doing birthday cards today now due to you I have a great idea for my granddaughter. Don't inhale too much tropical sand. LOL Blessings

  10. Nice job on the card, Tammy - the crocheted cake is adorable. And great photo of you and your friend.

    I basically have few friends outside of my own family. It's just sort of how we are.
