Gift Wrap Challenge in the Moxie Fab World

A while ago my aunt bought some tiny espresso coffe cups and they came with really nice boxes - I told her NOT to throw away these boxes!
So she gave them to me and here is what I made - no, wait - I´ve to show you my inspiration first: my small plum tree - I love it - the fruits are gorgeous: big and sweet!


And now - here is what I made: I covered one box with designer paper and embellished the top... easy!





I think I´ll make more of these - they´ll be cute gift boxes!

I´d like to join in the challenge at http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2011/04/350-cards-gifts-week-gift-wrap.html with my box.

Thanks for visiting me today!

Home Decor Challenge in the Moxie Fab World

Since I´ve started crafting it´s impossible for me to give anything away without jazzing it up…!


When I bought this stick (for flower pots), this duck was just plain black. So I wondered if this sweetie wouldn´t be even cuter with a rhinestone-eye and some white swirls stamped on her body… what do you think?!

Isn´t this duckie twice as sweet now?!





This flower pot stick 

1) was a little gift for my parents – together with some fresh herbs from our garden…

2) is my entry for http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2011/04/350-cards-gifts-week-home-decor.html

Little Gifts Challenge in the Moxie Fab World

Even if I run the risk of boring you – I can´t stop making my little Sticky-Notes-Booklets!
It´s like a passion!!!

This little set is:

A) for the Little Gifts Challenge in the Moxie Fab World

B) for a friend, whose style is elegant and classy. She loves decent colors and lace and pearls and glittery jewelry… so I thought this might be a fun little gift for her.

The card is made out of scraps – only scraps.

SPRING...

 
… has finally reached the middle of Europe, too!

So, may I introduce you to our big apricot tree: 


 It was the only tree we could rescue while building our house… it is very old and taller than the house now…


This tree makes me happy in spring, when it is in full bloom and in summer, when the fruits ripen.

So, how did I get inspired by this beauty?!

apricot tree inspiration + ring base + fabric flower + big rhinestone = fashion jewelry


... and ...
 
apricot tree inspiration + designer paper in vernal colors + embellishments = another one of my “beloved” sticky-notes-booklets :-)


 ... and the inside ...


Have a great week and thanks for stopping by saying hello!
