Hand-Made Birthday Cards and Gifts

Happy Monday!


Today I would like to share the hand-made cards and gifts I received for my birthday. Yes, I’m a little late with this post (one month to be exact). Glad my friends were timely!


I’m showing the cards in alphabetical order.


First up is Diana:

Look how pretty she presented it:

Diana also made me a Linzer Torte!

It was beautiful and delicious!

Rebecca sent me this pretty card:

Regina’s card is in my favorite color:

Regina made her card to coordinate with the personalized bag she sent me (which was full of the Milka chocolates I so like):

I received this special card from my friend Renate’s two girls:

The girls also gave me these flowers:

Back in July Diana and I got together for a craft day. We always exchange gifts when we get together. On that particular day she presented me with this fabulous basket she sewed:

The chocolates are long gone (they were yummy) and I am now using the basket to house my baker’s twine.


Diana also made a Raspberry Cheesecake for tea time that day. Unfortunately, I did not take a picture of it (I was too anxious to eat it!).


I gave Diana the sewing machine that I posted here.


That’s it for today. Thanks for stopping by and sticking with me through my long post. Hope to ‘see’ you again tomorrow–I’ll have an IBS post and a CbyAR blog hop post.
