Hi! Happy Valentine's Day!!
In between all that PTI anniversary fun, I did manage to somehow make something with
My Favorite Things sketch above.
I made a little tooth fairy card and box for Cheryl's son. (Cheryl, try not to look so closely so you can be surprised when you receive it in the mail). I was looking for a tooth fairy stamp set but couldn't really find any from my favorite stamp companies. Maybe they should try to make one? But when I saw this Pure Innocence stamp, I thought she was cute and could be a tooth fairy.
I tried not to pick such girly colors but it's hard to avoid all the cute stuff.
There's a little blue pearl in her wand and some stickles on her wings. Then I had to stop with all the pretty embellishments or it would be too girly.
I used a tin that used to hold some paper flowers. It's a pretty good size.
I used Just Rite Stampers to personalize the box a bit.
Then on the inside, I made a felt pillow. I stitched an X in the middle with yarn because it was too poofy and the lid didn't close well. The X made the pillow just a bit skinnier and marks a good place to put his tooth. But my sewing is a bit messy so don't look too closely. And the tin is big so you could even fit larger bills in it and not just coins. What's the going rate for a tooth these days? We gave my daughter $10 for her first tooth. A bit crazy, I know but it took so long for her first one to come out. Now she gets $5 a tooth. Maybe that's a bit much too?
Thanks for reading and have a great week!
