Made of faux fur (not sure exactly what colour it is) blue ribbon, 2 pom pom balls made of the same faux fur.
I finally got the chance to use a couple of decorative pins. I also tucked a few tiny pressed flowers into the vintage ribbon bow.
The corner stamps are from a Halloween set. I'm really liking the cursive birthday greeting stamp, part of a larger set I had been drooling at whenever I went to Michael's. It's a touch wonky, but that's the charm of hand-made, right?
This is a sample of a kaleidoscope tessellation requested by, and created for, a friend (Gina) I met here on Flickr. She makes candy wrappers, gift wrap, bookmarks, etc., but her site is no longer online, so I'm not sure where to get her products any longer.
Only sample tiles are available for viewing since I used her original picture instead of one of my own or one from Flickr with a CC license.

Chicago Printed String Company dates its origins back to 1898 to a company founded by Aron Weiner outside Prague in what is now the Czech Republic. The business made cotton bands that surrounded hats. Weiner moved to Chicago in 1912 – 1913 and founded Chicago Printed String in 1915. Its business was now advertising tape: cotton yarn imprinted with a company name used for binding, which it called Print-Ad-String. RIBBONETTE featured material comparable to silk and satin ribbons. The company moved to what became 65,000 square feet of space at 2300 W. Logan Blvd. in 1929. By 1960, it was reported the company produced 600 million yards of decorative ribbons and 210,000 reams of wrapping paper. To show its diversification, the company changed its name to CPS Industries in 1965. Shortly thereafter, it moved its production facilities to Tennessee and, two years later, was sold to Papercraft Corporation. Faced with the wrecker’s ball, the building was saved in 2004 and currently houses a fitness center.
we probably spent $130 or so on christmas gifts this year, vastly less than usual, for EVERYONE. and yet it still seemed like a lot. they were all happy. and the paper littered the floor.
I received a new 3D print I did. Unfortunatly some part broke during the transportation and I have to put all the wrapping paper on the floor to find the broken pieces.
Jules' Photo Challenge
December 11 - Name a holiday tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation in your family.
The opening of Christmas presents on Christmas Eve (as opposed to the stereotypical opening of presents on Christmas Morning) is a tradition I grew up with, and I married into a family that also is a Christmas Eve family, so this is a tradition that is continuing on with our generation.
Since I don’t have any wrapped presents to photograph yet, here’s some wrapping paper instead.
