My BFF and I have our birthdays with a week in between, so the summer is all about parties and prezzies! We exactly know what to get for each other :-) To maximize the fun of giving I made an array of different presents, some books she liked, masking tape, crafty paper,… And some handmade, especially for her, one of a kind items.
I put the rolls of masking tape in a glass jar that I decorated with a doily and butterfly paper (she loooooves butterflies):

The masking tape was hidden among lots of yarn ends, so she wouldn’t spot the actual prezzie on sight!

Then I began the daunting task to mod podge her a book with nice fabrics. It took me ages, glue and wait to dry and glue and wait and glue and… you get the picture :-) but the end result was worth it I think! At least the birthday girl liked it ;-)

Yes, butterflies again :-)


The backside with roses.

I personalized the first page of her new ‘creative ideas’ book


and included a butterfly and starry bookmark.


Next time I’ll show you the pretty, homemade prezzie she gave me! It’s gorgeous!!
Love, Zjizjipke!

BeantwoordenVerwijderenLOVED the presies!!! Really want to start putting things in the be-a-creator book you made me, but I'm lacking the time and I'm actually afraid of ruining your masterpiece... (so need to try everything on a piece of paper first ;-) ) Thanks sweety!!! xxx
