Napkin Cards and a Christmas Sweater Ornament

I don't know if I posted this, yet. I have really been getting into making cards from napkins.  A friend of mine posted a video about it and I went straight to the Dollar (I should say, the dollar twenty-five) Store and looked for some cute napkins. This was around Fall/Thanksgiving time. I made an envelope, too. For these I used the saran wrap/wax paper method. And my iron. It was time consuming and kind of a pain. This isn't the video my friend posted, but it's a similar method. (Except I used wax paper).
Then, I was watching a You Tube video of someone I get so many good ideas from, and love watching her videos. And she was doing napkin cards. Her way was soooo much easier!! So, I went on the hunt for some cute Christmas napkins. 😁  These gnome ones were sooo cute.
And these poinsettias I got from the Dollar Twenty-Five Store, too. 
Side view so you can see the 3-D view. I glued two napkins and used the present to make the card have more dimension. And added some little gems to the snowflakes.
The poinsettia card.  I added some gems to the middle of the poinsettia, too. I want to send this one to my aunt. (Ughhh... I still haven't done that. Sigh...) She is super crafty. 

 This is a Christmas Sweater Ornament I "customized" for the friend who I mentioned earlier. She loves monkeys. This is the only one of these I've made (so far). You can find the pattern for these on Yarnspirations.     

I actually have done some other crafts, too. And I made some Christmas Crack yesterday. I just haven't gotten the pictures up. I don't know if I will make any more Christmas goodies. I bought ingredients to make some, but... (Sigh) I forgot some of the ingredients. So, stay tuned...
