Whenever my husband or I have a reason to give something to each other, we always give a book. There may be other presents, too, but there's always a book also. I think it isn't very difficult to find something for me, because there aren't a lot of topics I'm not interested in. To find something for my husband is a lot more difficult. What sort of book do you buy for someone who reads a book called 'Calculus' before he goes to bed? And yes, 'Calculus' is just what you think it is when you hear its name: a book about math, a book full of formulas (my husband is a scientist, as you may have guessed). So most of the time I give him books about places where we've planned to go, because anything with formulas in it is beyond me. This month we go to Antwerp, Belgium. It isn't really for Valentine's Day, but because we go without the girls, it's sort of a romantic weekend, so I bought a Lonely Planet about Belgium and packed it as a Valenti

DeleteWhat a cute and different idea. I am sure the person you did this for was very pleased.
ReplyDeleteThank you, LV!
DeleteThat's adorable! You didn't have politics in the back of your mind while making this, did you? Or maybe Heffalumps and Woozles? :)
ReplyDeleteNo, I didn't :-) ! I live in The Netherlands and my knowledge about politics in the US isn't really up to date, to be honest. Don't know who Heffalumps and Woozles are either :-) . But thanks for the nice compliment! Liz

DeleteHe (she?) is SO CUTE! I made an elephant not too long ago, yours is so much better :-)
ReplyDeleteI think you put as much love in your elephant as I did and that's what counts! Thanks for visiting and leaving your sweet comment!
DeleteI love your elephant. You are one of my nominations for my Liebster Award post here http://www.typativemamacat.com/2012/10/liebster-award-tag-post.html . Thanks for sharing your creative process with us.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Heidi! I'm very honored you nominated me for an award, but I have to say 'Thanks, but no thanks'. I think I don't deserve an award more than any other blogger. Everybody does the best she can and puts time and effort in her blog. Doesn't mean I don't appreciate it, though.
Deleteoh wow, that's cute. i wish i could be that creative

No, I'm sorry, but I didn't write a tutorial for this. Maybe you can find a nice pattern somewhere on the internet? Next time I make one I will think of taking pictures during the proces.
