Santa's Vintage Journey
An extra post for A Vintage Journey today as the Design Team have been playing a Secret Santa and we have decided to reveal the gift we made and the gift we received as part of a blog hop. So I hope you are ready to do the hopping and be inspired!
So first up is the gift I made - which was for Annie of Curious n Crafty Treasures. I very much enjoyed a couple of crafting days with Annie and her Mum, Rita, last September and I could not ignore the fact that Annie likes candles. So I decided to make this little candle book box using Tim's Merriment Paper Stack.

Here is the cover ……

and the inside with the six
Christmas T-lights (Mulled Wine).
And here is the fabulous gift I received from Jenny (Buttons) of Pushing the Right Buttons.
Isn't this book cover just stunning! and so personal to me with all those wonderful details.
I keep looking at it and seeing more!
and not forgetting the back!
A wonderful memento for me to take on my travels and record my wonderful dream moments. Thank you Jenny for such a wonderful present - it will be treasured.
