Cadeau d'anniversaire

Houlà !
Déjà plus d'une semaine que je ne suis pas venue par ici =)
c'est ça de toujours faire des choses secrètes...il faut attendre qu'elles soient arriver pour vous les montrer =)
Et comme une de mes réalisations est arrivée, c'est parti pour vous la dévoiler...
Vendredi dernier c'était l'anniversaire de Nia 
Le colis est arrivé un peu en retard mais a tout de même fait très plaisir et c'est ce qui compte le plus !
Je vous passe les détails des petits cadeaux, rubans, et autres boutons qui accompagnaient l'objet principal qui était...


Un porte bougies en bois =)
'Super moitié' l'a recouvert de peinture, de tissu et de feutrine et de ruban (Merci Super Moitié ♥) ....


J'ai pour ma part brodé 2 petites fées mensuelles de Cross Stitch Crazy (mars et avril)....


et hop hop hop un porte bougies personnalisé =D

Nia m'a envoyé un mail qui ne laisse aucun doute sur l'effet qu'a eu mon cadeau sur elle =)

J'ai encore des choses en réserve que je vous montre plus tard, mais j'ai reçu la seconde partie de la SAL mystère =)
Impatiente que je suis de la commencer et de vous montrer, car ça...je peux =)
A bientôt



Hi girls
First I would like to welcome my new followers =)
Still haven't many and many followers but this little family pleases me already, and I never expected 1 year ago when I started to blog, to reach 41 followers a day !!!
Thank you everyone for your coming here and for the kind comments you leave....
So...
It has already been one week since I wrote anything here !
Time goes by tooooo quickly ! 
and maybe it's because Summer and sun are here now... I don't stitch a lot and it seems that my brain in on holidays...because I don't have new ideas of finish...but it will come back soon =D
I hope !
I should receive in a few days a new book I ordered with ideas, it will help I think... 

Let me show you what I made for Nia's birthday =D
When I read and read again the mail she sent me , I know she enjoyed my gift and I'm very happy

It was a candles holder made of wood, that 'Super Hubby' covered with fabric, ribbon and felt after having painted it in pink (thank you Super Hubby ♥)
I stitched 2 monthly fairies from Cross Stitch Crazy (March & April) and you can see on the last picture the personalised candles holder (smelling rose =D)
 
I wanted to first to make a coasters holder as I made for Olli , but I didn't find another holder in cardboard ! 
out of stock :(

Next projects are secret again =)
But I received the 2nd part of the Mystery SAL .... can't wait to start it and to show you.... this...I can show you =D

Happy stitching
And Feliz Aniversario again Nia =D

xxxxx

  12. It's hard to get the words to say how much I love everything you sent me and specially this gift =)
    And it was a team work :D hehehe thanks to your hubby too =) I laugh so much thinking how our guys are so much alike! I can see your hubby next to you when you open a package, just like Rui does :p hhehehe And they both help us, making something or just sharing creative ideas! It's fun to have them by our side, don't you agree? ;) ehhehehe We are lucky girls :D
    Can I say again how much I love my new candle holder???? :D
    Right now, it's on my craft room, I wanted a place to put it, where I could admire something that makes me smile everytime I see it :D And it fills the room with its scent!! Perfect =)
    The stitching? Could it be more me??? hahahaah Love both fairies :)
    Fabric and charms, lovely lovely lovely :) I can see each detail and appreciate all the love and dedication that you put into making this piece!! thank you my sweet friend :D
