Homemade Gifts from Friends




Here are a few gifts that I received recently from my friends. The first two come from my friend Yvette. I meet her two years at convention. She is such a talented stamper. Here is a tote bag she made me. She stamped it with Eastern Blooms and decorated it with Rhinestone Brads, Pretties and Old Olive wide grosgrain ribbon.

She sent the bag with this very pretty card made as well with the Eastern Blooms set. She decorated some of the flowers with some pretties. Added a scallop edge along both sides as well as wide grosgrain ribbon made in a beautiful bow.






The last gift comes from my friend Tracy. How cute is this box! Check out this link to see her Christmas version of this box. The box is made with our Pennant Bigz XL exclusive Sizzex die. The birthday cupcake comes from the Simple Birthday Thanks stamp set. She colored in the cherry with our Stampin' Write Markers. For sprinkles she put in eyelets. She cut the top and then the bottom she crimped and put a bow around the cupcake with grosgrain ribbon. The birthday greeting comes from Heard from the Heart stamp set. She made the streamers by curling paper strips. The box actually opens from the bottom. Very cute.





The last project comes from my friend Colleen. How beautiful is this project. So much detail. It is a stationary box. Made with the Holiday Treasures designer series paper and the Spotlight on Christmas stamp set. Click here to see the tutorial on how to make this project. I have the best friends ever. Thank you guys for all the wonderful gifts!!!!
