A special Gift

Another busy week has come and gone (now I have a relaxing weekend ahead of me, and a long one at that!!) During the week I was able to give a handmade gift to the wonderful and super Special Leanne!! She's the sweetest lady who has been coming to our house every Wednesday to teach me how to knit!! I've loved EVERY minute and really wanted to give her something extra when it was her birthday (just this wed gone!) So this is what I made....
I attended a training in Hobart the other week and we were shown a sweet little tag box with butterflies in it (it's pictured in the USA catty a few times) Anyway I totally LOVED it and quickly jotted down the layout of how to make it, though this did NOT include any measurements or ANYTHING!!!
I was soooooo excited when I was able to work out the details for myself!! YAY!! (this coming from a visual girl, who really prefers to be shown how to make things, only have Picture recipe books cause I want to know what the finished product will look like he he!!)
Of course it had to have Leanne's favourite colour... Purple and Chocolate goes sooo great with that so I was off to work designing the little tags! I made an assortment for different occasions, whether birthday, or thank you and popped them all in their separate compartments and then in the fourth spot put extra ribbon to make up the tags (i just included a sample and left the rest to be done by Leanne!) What do you think??I am totally going to make some more, they're just soooo pretty and a wonderful gift to give!! Perhaps I can show you some step by step instructions - would you like that??
Well best get to the shower and start my day!! Thanks for popping over!
