When I started to create the birthday gifts for my dear friend Marie of Lost Bird Studio, I didn’t have to think long about the themes. She loves everything French and so I soldered this bottle for her, added a French label and a fleur de lis charm.
The label I used for this lavender pillow is Belgian but the French language counts, right?
Another theme Marie loves is “birds” and so I came up with this fabric collage for her.
The beautiful label images as well as the pretty bird image were provided by The Graphics Fairy. Thank you, Karen for all the fantastic graphics you always have for us!
Next week I’ll be back to show you the gifts I had made for my dear friend Dorthe.
Have a wonderful weekend!
HUGS,
Julia

So schöne päckschen für liebe Marie, hast du gemacht- I love the collage with the birds print and your bottle is beautifully made, with the fleur de lis.Did you wax some of it I think ?
Also the petit pillow is so beautiful with the old price-mark and the roses.
