Happy Sunday All,
Finished my last crafting project for this weekend and feeling that I have moved up a step on my list of gifts to make.
This gift is for my brother's GF whose birthday is today. She loves embroidered towels and what better gift to give her.
I used the Victorian Scroll Tarapunto Alpha design from Embroidery Library for the bath towel and fingertip towel. For the washcloth I used the Confetti Alpha, which requires color change, but I opted for one color.
Of course, I had to make a gift box for it and instead of going with the templates I have from SVGCuts.com this time around, I used a box that I scavangered from work. The boxes that office supplies come in make great templates for making gifts boxes and the one I used was a Smead supply box.
I used Luxe Pashmina 2-sided cardstock and with my trusty hot glue gun... became this
The cute ribbon is from a co-worker, she receives gifts often and graciously gives me her gift boxes and/or ribbons.

That's All Folks... have a Great Sunday.

It was an enjoyable weekend of crafting and the good thing about it is, not having to run around looking for a gift, card or a box.
