Mum 70 - Part 6

Knitty Nora is the next page and letter N (as in SEVENTY) for my Mum's Birthday card and has been coloured with Promarker and glossy accents on the glasses.




I cut the number 70 from card and then covered with some really ancient papers from my stash - Papermania - Retro Floral 12x12 papers which I've pieced together so I can use as much as I can.  Edges dotted with liquid pearls.  The smaller letter N is also covered with papers from the same collection.  I've handwritten the vellum tag and created a bow with some paper ribbon.

Knitting Champion

Knitty Nora, who once was the Knitting Champion of Kendal in 1953, is still very active in knitting circles and regularly donates all her finished items to a refuge for abandoned animals. These sad and neglected animals find great comfort in Nora's misshapen knits and her weird and wonderful colour combinations are most welcome to the chameleons.


So here is a snapshop of Nora in action, proudly displaying the Champion of Kendal 1953 trophy.


You too can have your very own Knitty Nora (with or without sparkly pink fluffly slippers) as she is available to buy right now. And to finish the scene, the trophy and coffee table have been added.  All available to buy from Doctor Digi!
