Adorable OWL and "Best of the Web"

Al heel lang verzamel ik stofjes; overal waar ik kom en waar ik stofjes zie moet ik er gewoon een paar meenemen. Maaaaaarrrrr ... ik deed er verder niks mee! Tot nu! Gisteren ben ik eindelijk gaan zitten met al die stofjes op schoot, heb er een paar uitgekozen en heb deze uil gemaakt! Is-ie niet schattig???

For quite a while now I'm a collector of cute fabrics. Everywhere I see them I just have to buy them; I have a box full!! BUT.... I didn't do anything with them! Until now that is. Yesterday evening I sat down, took the box and just got started!! And here's the result: an adorable owl!!

Beetje overdreven hè 4 foto's? maar ik vind m zo leuk! Ik ga er gauw nog een maken!!
Overigens zijn de ogen gemaakt met de tools van Epiphany Crafts: Button Studio Tool Round 20.

Okay, maybe 4 photos are a bit much, but I'm really proud of him (or her?). Btw, have you seen that the eyes are made with my fav tool the Epiphany Crafts Button Studio Tool Round 20?

En verder kreeg  ik van de week een leuk emailtje van Kim. Wie is Kim??? Zij verzorgt de blogposts op "Best of the Web" en vroeg of ze mijn blog er mochten noemen. Nou, natuurlijk!!! HIER is de link naar hun site. Leuk hè

Another fun thing happened last week, I got this email from Kim:

"Dear Monique,

That's it! Off to buy some Pokemon cards for my 6 year old (I have to spoil him a bit now that his dad, sis and bro are off "holidaying" in Greece!!! lol!)

Hugs and have a wonderful weekend!
