Small Tokens of Love....

Prim and Whimsy Girls had a Valentines swap and I was partnered with Maureen White of Urban Pastures Art, I'm not ever really sure of what the swap items should be and I usually sweat it out till I'm done and it's sent and recieved...whole lotta sweating going on....But the gift has reached it's destination, so I thought I'd post it here.All handmade from my own design, embellished with new and vintage findings,acrylic painted then sealed.
It's called " A little Birdie Told Me "


Vellum, glittered cardstock, gold thread quilted-look velour fabric,

heavy fringe trim with mica flakes, gold glitter dots, glass beaded stickpin with
a handmade glittered heart.

Glazed eyes and lips, star glitter for added sparkle to eyes

Handmade paper clay Birdie, glittered cardstock collar and heart with glass bead eyes.

Here are the befores:



Hope y'all have a wonderful Valentine's Day with the ones or one you love!
Blessings,Flora

Renee said...

I am sure that she loved this. It is fantastic.

I saw on your profile that we are the same age and scarier yet, both aries. (I know what that is like ha ha).

I lost my Dad in September/08 and my Mom is here she is 82 so I value her so much. I understand the scare for your Mom.

Thank you for your best wishes.

Love Renee

Flora said...

Ahahaha!!! No it isn't easy being an Aries or 52....lol!!!Many Blessings for a brighter tomorrow, Take care.
