Hi everyone, I thought I would show you the gift I sent to my friend Angela (no blog) I decided to make a pretty little pillow trimmed in white ribbon and swarovski crystals. Angela has let me know she has recieved my gift and I am glad to say she likes it!
The picture above shows the wrapping paper and gift tag I made using images from The Graphic Fairy blog here The wrapping paper can be found under Wallpaper on the link provided, I then edited the paper in Picasa 3 to write the greetings.
The gift tag was made using an image also from The Graphics Fairy, not sure which section I got this one from though. All I did was print the image onto transfer paper and cut out the shape, I then sandwiched a small piece of felt in between and trimmed with dmc handmade cord.
Here is the pillow, the cross stitch pattern is a freebie from Martines Blog here just keep scrolling down the page and you will see it there. If you would like to see it made in pink see my previous post here.
White hand made polymer clay roses sprinkled with glitter, bow trimmed with
swarovski crystals.
I show how to make this bow on my tutorials blog here
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

That is so pretty, and so beautifully wrapped I'm surprised she could bear to open it
These are so lovely–and your gift wrapping an entire gift and treat in itself. I mean to take just a minute break and end up hanging around your site far longer…thank you for the refreshment.
Wow! I would say that Angela is a very lucky girl to have you as a friend! I read your post and realize how much more there is out there is cyberspace that I have never even thought of seeing, touching, doing. Maybe someday!
bonjour Lynn
celui ci aussi est merveilleux, et si joliment finalisé

Another beautiful masterpiece – you are amazing Lynn.
What a beautiful birthday gift! I bet your friend was thrilled!
Wow, ir's adorable! And I love how you personalized the paper!
What gorgeous, and unusual, gifts you have made. 🙂 I am sure they will be cherished.
Oh my Lynn, what a lovely gift you have made, I am not surprised your friend loves it.
I just want to say you have given me plenty of inspiration to sew more since I started following you blog. I made a few of my own cross stitch designs, and I have also been using embroidery which I find very addictive. For now my knitting has taken a back seat.
Thank you for the inspiration. best wishes Julie.C
