Hey there happy Sunday to you ![]()
Yesterday I said I would show you what I made & sent to Dana, well this is it

Now I’m looking at this pic & I’m trying to remember what the rules were for the swap…..I think we had to make & send a holiday season card(??), a gift & a treat from your own country. So I based my swap around the card I decided to send to Dana. The good ole’ chocolate pouch again…. Gee I LURVE making these, they are so super easy & they just tizz up that chocolate bar that bit more without having to “wrap it up” , then I also covered a journal for Dana, this is one I found while I was waiting in the airport earlier in the year (waiting to come home from Regionals). On the journal I covered the letter d with some Pink Pirouette card, then rubbed a little Riding Hood Red ink around the edge & covered it with Cyrstal Effects to give it a glossy finish. Once that was dry, I thought I’d like to add a bit more “bling” (gotta love bling !!) so i popped the Clear Rhinestone Brads on it then tied some Taffeta ribbon around it. I was so chuffed with how it turned out.
I don’t think Dana has it yet ![]()
but hopefully it will turn up soon.
I hope this project inspired you a little. I’ll be back with some more soon.
Till then…….keep smiling
