First Christmas card, and cone. A packet looking as droven over!!!

My first christmas card made this year--I bought the wonderfull sheet from Stampington.

and used the bird,together with bits of this and that....

This little cone (12 cm.long) made of zinc, I sold in my shop many years ago, and I have had some left...

This year I decited to use them, and decorate, them a bit myself.

I used rabbit fur, in grey ,silver band,a beautifull bling,bling and dipped the end of the cone, in silver glitter

I think it looks quit pretty!

Some weeks ago I bought Dawns dear sweet little fairy shoe pattern, -click and have a look!!

Dear Dawn has so many wonderfull tutorials, wonderfull photographed,and explained.

*****

It is so tiny and sweet, I only made one, for now,as I`m so bussy with my dolls

Now hold your breath, and take a look at the package I recieved some weeks ago from USA.

I have never seen something like it, and was almost afraid to open the plactic bag, it was kept inside!!!

But as I could see it came from my dear friend Vicki, I new it had to be my gorgeus beach bird nest.

Vicki makes the most fantastic knitted nests, they are like little jewels,and so lovingly made,

by hand ,of this sweet, and dear woman.

There it was, totally unharmed, beautifull looking, and only with a pair of pearls damaged in the emvelope.

I don`t know what caused this thing-the envelope pressed open ,totally black from some kind of dirt, ----

maybe ran over of something!!!!

but the sweet nest is here, in my house,so wonderfull made ,full of beach treasures, and 3 small handmade eggs ,dos`nt it look fantastic? I so love it dear friend.

Here it rests with a mermaid, given to me from  Bente, a dear danish friend

living in Australia.

Hope you all have a wonderfull friday, and week-end.

Thankyou so much for all the heartwarming wishes from you, to come make dolls with me--

How fantastic it would be, if it was possibly- but I guess it is only in my dreams :)

Thanks for every lovely hello, and comment,

love and hugs, Dorthe
