Mother & Son
Such a busy week getting ready for the wedding. I wanted to do something special for my friend, Debbie who's son is the groom. I found a vintage makeup compact on Etsy. I carefully took out what remained of the pressed powder. I borrowed a favorite picture of my friend with her son as a toddler. I printed the picture on to printable fabric and pulled some of my favorite Lecien fabric for the frame. A little batting, some card stock and glue and it was all set. A pretty hankie to dry a happy tear and a little mirror to check her makeup~all set. A special gift for a very special friend!
Hugs,

I just love this clever gift idea. Will have to put this in my bag of tricks!! I will be on the look-out for more vintage compacts. I have two right now and just purchased some photo fabric or whatever you call it...LOL!! It will be a good test project for my new photo copying "stuff" that I have never used before!!
ReplyDeleteYes,how precious is that...a lovely gift that I'm sure she will cherish.
