April Crafting Brings May FLOWERS Gallery

I'm glad you like it!
Ha ha - it looks like the flower pillow is the princess (or thinks she is anyway) and the other pillows are bowing down to her.  You better watch out that she doesn't get a swelled head.

I've asked sonnetbird for her help in posting pics.
...
Thank you sonnetbird for the flower-filled package!  Everything will be treasured and well used 

WHEW! *Wiping glass beads of sweat from my brow*
I am so glad you liked everything, sonjabegonia!
Here I am as requested to help with the pics
The notecards ~

The bookcover/tablet holder ~


Purchased journal ~

And the item  I may duplicate for my own guest room, the beaded violets ~

I was worried most about this one, I hope it arrived intact and not too squished

Those beaded flowers are great!

Well Cardigan notified me that she received my package today and as we previously agreed on I am posting the pics here-

First- The Friendship Tin- This is the item that started out my theme. I found the tins on sale at Michael's and loved the pattern so much that I created the entire swap package around the pattern. Inside the tin are decorated 2-sided patterned circles with either pictures and quotes about friendship, or blank w/photo mounts for Cardigan to put pics of her friend in there.-


These are the inside circles- Decorated with coordinated ribbons, paper flowers, and stickers-


Next I made a felt cozy for a pocket tissue pack (brought on by crafting during allergy season!)- I decided that as Cardigan is a young woman I made it a size that could also hold some personal feminine products in her purse as well-


I next made a set of flower note cards w/ the same paper flowers as accents-


And these are the little extra doo-dads I picked up to add - a pack of matching tissues , a yellow flower on an alligator clip, and a flower shaped shower scrubber (actually looks like a butterfly to me- but it's marked as a flower!)

I recieved from BDDesigns today, it is an amazing package. She had looked at my profile and seen that I love owls so has incorporated that into her beautiful crafts.
I opened the box to find this:

 Wow, what a cute felt owl, I opened it up to find it is a really useful folder with a notebook pocket. So pretty and the seams are all so straight and perfect.
lots of pockets (great fabric) filled with candy and...

ATCs and pen and wash owl pictures, CUTE! I'm thinking of framing these 
and that's not all ...

a bracelet with flowery beads and a fabric covered notebook that matches the folder! Phew, so much amazing stuff- everyone will be so jealous 
Thank you so much you spoiled me - Big hugs x

Hmmm not sure why but it would only post all the pictures if I made one tiny- grrrr. It is clickable though so take a closer look!

I recieved a great package from KatyMai today
a little covered box (that had a pair of earrings inside that I just realized I forgot to take a picture off)

2 cute little cross stitched pics (the glass in one of the frames broke, but no biggie I have another frame that size to fix it with)

A reallly pretty bracelet, earing and pendendent set (sorry it is sideways)

And last but not least.....
A HUGE pile of british candy!
(My boys have alreayd devoured half of it already)


Thank you so much Katy, this was a really fun swap!

I've totally wisted that owl folder. Is that applique?

And BDDesigns, can you say where you have found the fabric for that other folder? It's really cool!
