small parcel


All wrapped up and ready to fly to its new home.
Proof that good things come in small packages.

Do you like that embossed stamp? I love it. It was given to me a few years ago by my big sister Leigh, who knows how I love to victimize people with handmade gifts. It's a nice way to warn them up front not to say anything mean about it when they open it. Ha ha. Which reminds me of these awesome tags.

(It is a Martha Stewart embosser, but they no longer offer it as far as I can tell. However there are other rubber stamp makers that provide custom round embossers like mine, so it might be easy to order a similar substitute.)

    Your packaging is awesome! I'm happy to say I still have my little embossed wrapper from you... and the ever-so-cute thank-you note. :)

    Beautiful packaging. And thanks a lot for the great Flora needlebook pattern I won at the giveaway. It is so nice. I hope I will find time to give it a try as soon as possible.

      Yay, Darcy! I'm so glad it arrived safely. Always makes me a little nervous to drop one in the mail. ;-) and yes, you NEED an embosser for yourself.

    I have the same embosser, I love it and use it all the time from gifts from my kitchen to hand-knit items.
