I love to create small delightful gifts of gratitude. I've always agreed with the phrase "It's the thought that counts." Truly the thought does count and with just a drop of creativity you can create something meaningful.
Mini Framed Pincushion:
- Select a small frame with a 2x2 or 2x3 inch opening. Remove the glass from the frame, if it's included.
- Using hot glue, attach a fabric swatch from the Vanilla Sunshine Collection to the inside of the frame.
- Cut a 2x5 inch strip of quilters batting and fold over to create a 2x2.5 inch rectangle. Place it behind the fabric.
- Cut a piece of cereal board or chipboard to fit snugly to the back of the frame. Hot glue this piece to secure the batting.
- Dress up the frame with lace trim from the Mia Bella Collection and indigo bakers twine.
Rosette Hat Pin:
- Cut out one rosette from the Mia Bella trim. Slip on to the hat pin.
- Tie a ribbon at the base of the rosette to help secure it in place.
Bluebird Card:
- Cut glitter paper from the Vanilla Sunshine Companion Set in half. Fold in half and score to create a 3x3 inch card.
- Cut a 3 inch strip from a Vanilla Sunshine scalloped border ad glue to card about a 1/2 inch from the base.
- Wrap the traditional blue washi tape around the the card overlapping the border.
- Add a umbrella page element sticker as the focal point.

I just love the peach and pretty blue together. I have never used that combo before, but will try it because it's just so pretty. It's like a poppy against the blue sky.
