Sitting here this very mild evening I have managed to download the photos from the camera that my DH has had. In fact he had MY camera right up until he received one from work as a Christmas gift. Nice for some ah. Anyway I will get off from that high horse and show you some of the things that I made for Christmas gifts. Teachers Gifts……this year there were 4 kindy teachers and 2 school teachers to keep me going.
I started with these notebooks that I found that had plastic covers so I pulled out the covering and created it my way.
Each of these were covered with DSP and decorated with a saying and also a punched imaged. The top book had a bird, in fact about 4 of the books had birds but then there where the butterflies and flowers. Lots of Dazzling Diamonds of course and then I made a ribbon bookmark for each one. The idea came from the very talented Becky Roberts who is talent plus. I spent far to much time playing so it was a mad rush to finish them. I ended up settling on three designs going with a scrunched scallop flower with a large clear button as the centre. Plain circle attached to a large clear button with a punched flower in the middle and 4 that I used the Floral Fusion Sizzlits Die, 2 with plain brads in the middle and 2 with Rhinestone Brads. A couple had little tags attached as well.
I will show you the rest tomorrow, thanks for looking and pop over to Becky’s site if you haven’t already and check out her blog.
