I used some retired chocolate chip ribbon, some non-su buttons, linen thread, and Autumn Traditions DSP (ret). I used sticky strip to ensure that everything stayed where I wanted it!
My site is named after my Black Lab, Shadow. Shadow received his name by being my constant shadow including while I am crafting. The running joke in my family was that due to the whole 'Labs shed A LOT', everything I created had a signature 'Shadow' hair hidden somewhere... While Shadow is no longer with us, I am lovingly reminded of him every time a random hair shows up in my craft room. Like our loved ones, Lab hair never really leaves us and that is a pretty comforting thought!

Fall Gifts
I love giving hand made gifts! There is something so fun about shopping for things to alter or dress up and then putting your very own special touches on them before giving them away. I found some fall theme scented candles at our local dollar store and thought they would make nice little gifts for my club members.

How pretty, I seem to have the same condition as you, a "need" to purchase cute little things to pretty up, could do with a few more hours to do this though! Lol!

These are so pretty Margaret. Love the papers and the buttons.
ReplyDeleteI can't agree more, handmade (even if it is a jazzed up version of a plain store bought item) are the best !
