Prezzies for my friends!!!!!

Afternoon Everyone,
Hope your all well..I'm back to normal now... wow really nasty bug glad it's gone before christmas...sorry I didn't come back yesterday but I over did it with the housework.... silly really it had only been a day that I hadn't really done any  but I just had to get it done and really should have left it till today but oh well if your houese proud then that's just the way you are well I am.... these are the prezzies I have made for Katy to give to my sil and for my two friends who are Katy's godmother's...I found the brilliant tutorial  for the boxes over at Norma's blog from My Craft Room if you have never been go and visit... her cards are gorgeous...I have made them all different but I have used all Pink Gem Designs stamps...I have used the same images for the candles...




This one is for my friend Jayne we grew up together  she is katy's Godmother and Katy is named after her sort of as she is actually Katy-Jayne..Jayne loves cats and red...





this one is for my other friend Debbie again we grew up together.....






This set is for my Sil as Mimi looks so much like her Grandaughter....all of the bits I have used are from my stash....except the candles obviously..can't tell what any of the papers are as I have had them a while and can't remember where they were from sorry..just need to get some lovely choccies to fill the boxes when I next go into town..I made the little boxes for the candles from the same card so it all matches and the bags are from Lakeland Plastic I think they are meant for sweets really but they were the right size for what I wanted..got to go now as the postman has just brought me my new pink Gem Stamps so I'm off to have a play...take care...
