So now onto my make. I had to make some little gifts for friends and also a charity night and decided what do people use or would use. So I have made some little list and note books. i am afraid in the rush for the charity night i forgot to take a picture and just had these two which have gone to friends.

This little cutie looks like she has had a wonderful time shopping and is called Oh lets shop and can be found in the shop here. I have used some ribbon from stash gems from Meiflower and scraps of Dp to cover my notebook which i got from a local supermarket. the image is coloured with my promarkers andis cut out with a Xcut oval die and backed with a sizzix thinlet die.

My 2nd one is more of a list book but there is no rules and i made Carol who celebrated her birthday at the weekend to go with another little present. She is called Teenaged fashion and you can find her in the shop HERE

Once again coloured with promarkers and used some seam binding from crafty Ribbons and some pearls from Meiflower and Dp is from Stash.

Well hope you like my little gifts they went down well at the charity night and raised a little money for a good cause. Think I will be making a few more of these.
