Christmas Birds and Gift Wraps

Two of my grand nieces live in New Zealand, so their packages were finished and sent by the end of November. I made each of them a fabric pouch with a handmade tag and bracelet. You can see that post here. In order to send them I made little boxes with patterned card stock (Stampin'Up). The red ribbon was added and then a felt flower accent was made with Pure Poppy felt (Papertrey Ink) and white felt. Two sizes of flowers were cut from Beautiful Blooms II dies. A green layer of leaves was cut from one of the Lovely Layers dies. Tiny Tags dies and stamps were used to create the small tag.

Mattie loves owls, so that was my inspiration for choosing 

the patterned paper. When I saw this pattern for an 

ornament, I made a felt owl for the family`s Christmas tree.

This is the package I made for Polly. It also contains a 

fabric pouch, tag and bracelet. The patterned paper is 

accented with a large satin cranberry bow and a tiny tag.

I made another felt ornament ... this time I used a 

combination of patterns to create the red and white bird.
