Girafe et papillon

Il y a une dizaine de jours c'était l'anniversaire de Simone ....
Elle adore les girafes alors je lui ai fait une petite carte avec une girafe =)
Le Brésil a un service des postes qui a du être croisé avec un escargot :(
La carte est arrivée un peu tard mais l'intention y était...et puis Simone l'a beaucoup aimée, c'est le principal non ? =D
Donc maintenant qu'elle est arrivée je peux vous la montrer



Je la trouvais fin rigolote

A côté de ça, n'ayant pas de grands projets en ce moment (pause estivale ? enfin estivale parce que c'est noté comme ça sur le calendrier !!) je me suis fait un petit porte clefs...
Un peu déçue, je n'ai pas réussi à lui donner la bonne forme de papillon :(
Je ferai mieux la prochaine fois :)
Le corps était normalement en points de croix mais j'ai préféré y mettre des perles ...
Et j'ai utilisé un morceau des rubans reçus de Rita pour l'échange d'été =)

Voilà
La suite début de semaine prochaine...
En attendant bon weekend



Hi girls 

Some days ago it was Simone B-Day
As she loves giraffes and that I had in my charts this funny one (I found her funny =D) I decided to made her a card.
It seems that when you have something to send to Brazil you have to count one or two weeks more than usually =D
So sorry for not having sent it earlier  :-/
But anyway, it has arrived , Simone enjoyed it (it the most important thing isn't ? =D) and I can show you ...

As for the moment I haven't big stitching goals (yes, I haven't =D , maybe I'm on Summer holidays..Summer only because it's written like this on the calendar !!!) I just made myself a key chain =D
A bit disappointed because I didn't succeed to give it the exact shape of a butterfly, but I like it, and I'll do better next time !
the body was initially made with Xstitches but I decided to put beads instead =D
I had Chinese beads in my drawer ...
And used a piece of ribbon offered by Rita in the MS Summer exchange =D

Beginning of next week I come back  with my SomeBunny that I'm going to offer on Sunday 
I'm impatient to meet Baby Anna and to offer her my 'hand made' present....

Have a nice weekend
Happy stitching
xxxx

    1. I'm so happy you loved her =)
      I realised with my pictures that in the middle of the nose I forgot one stitch :-/
      I made a half cross stitch instead of a cross stitch....
      But we don't care =)
      I learnt too late it was you birthday to make a bigger stitching but when I saw this giraffe I knew she was for you =D
      you're a special friend to me too
      big big hugs
