Best Friend

Happy Monday!  Best friends!  When did you last catch up with your best friend?  I am bless with several best friend who is always there to lend a listening ear and to give me support when I am down and sad.  I meet them occasionally for shopping and tea.  I look forward to out next shopping and tea outing.

Today I'll like to share some of these sock dolls that I made the last few of days.  Yes, they are made from a pair of sock.  My kids just love them and I hope you do too!  Depending of the type of sock use,  your sock cat will all look different.  They are also available for sale and we can custom made it for you!

Love theme coptic stitch journal

Today I'll like to share another coptic stitch album that I made over the weekend.  This album is based on a "Love theme" therefore I've used lots of pink for my layout. 

I used some pink patterned paper, flowers, heart shaped felt ribbons, doily paper, fabric owl button and some cardstock and cardboard to complete this simple love journal.

Hope you have a wonderful week ahead!  Happy Tuesday!
