A Little Foal All Tucked In

Whipped up an ornament/tag/gift card holder for Taylor.
 
 
I had every intention of making a mouse king after I saw this cute mouse.
 
But I want everything that lady makes.  I have to remind myself who I'm making all of this stuff for and it's rarely me!  Taylor loves horses and wearing her new red starry hat to bed. And so there it is, a Christmas foal, in bed, in a red hat.

All Aboard

I waited til the last minute to create a "family ornament" for Chris' school tree.
 
I already knew that I wanted it to reflect his love for trains, chocolate, shapes and Daddy.
 
Luckily, I work well under pressure.  Except for a few oopsies, his ornament came out well in record time.
 
 
 
All of these felt pieces, I made on the fly.  I used fabric glue to adhere them together but sewed the envelope.
Clearly, I could use some lessons on sewing felt.
 
I added the title using white cardstock and a pen.
 
Super fast, super cute.
 
I'm thinking about trying this again with more time, more patience, hand stitches and embroidery.
