some gifts for my mom (pics)

[FairyWings]

my mom is into owls this year hehe
 SO i  got out some of my shells and made her one. I know it's not totally awesome, but i think she'll like it.
 I might stick a  magnet on the back


next up is a owl. I stiched one wing down at it's side and the other a little over it's chest .. maybe i'll have it hold soemthing. I got the pattern for this own in the toys & play things  section and showed it off there and the link to the thread where the  pattern was given




and this book is a work in progress . running out of time  with still much book to fill. might end up making a drawer or cubby hole in the  second half.
i didn't intend for it to be scrapbooky but it ended up that way. i had just found so many free paper patterns and printed till i ran out of ink lolk
 not sure if i will cover the outside or not. if it's going to have a secret hole.. best not to  bring attention to itself.

 She doesnt get to see my daughter too much and  she's growing up so fast.. so i put in pictures of her at different stages in life.


 the flower petals are actually dried out sunflower petals. nice and soft n smooth








 any new ideas of what to add to the book are welcome.
 so are other owl crafts.
i cannot knit or crotchet

I've added googly eyes to the plush owl ,  sewed the wings in , one is holding a little sign . and i added feet.



to the book, i added a couple pages.
 





the heart actually spins. it has a transparent nylon thread glued in between 2 heart cut uts and  glued in between pages . twist the heart a few times and lay it down . when the page gets turned the heart spins. fun stuff hehe
 

 I'm also giing my mom 2 dvds .

You don't think it's totally awesome?  It's fantastic!  Way better than I could ever do and I would have never thought of it.  Obviously I dont know your mom, but I think she's going to love it if her "thing this year is owls"
