Present for my teacher:)

Welcome to Funkycards!

Today I have designed a pillow as a gift for one of my high school teachers who is having a baby very soon:)  I am so happy for her, but sad to lose her as a teacher.  Once I knew the colors of the baby's room, I knew what I wanted to do. 

 The baby's room is done in pinks and reds.  I happen to know that my teacher really likes zebra prints so I added the zebra squares for a bit of interest:)

I made a matching card using the material from the pillow:)

Here are the pillow and card together.  I gave these to her last week and she loved them:)  I was really happy about that!

Homemade gifts are special and easy to do if you just spend a little time thinking about your resources and supplies.  Try making a gift and let me know how it goes:)

Thanks for stopping by!
