A Garland for a Special Friend

Elyse Major is one of those "friends I've never met" but feel a special bond with.

I have been reading her blog for about 3 years and I've purchased a number

 of items from her Etsy shop.

Elyse loves the Cath Kidson look...

soft pastels with a dash of red...colors I love, too.

I read every post that she writes on her blog and on Facebook, but I don't always

 comment. She will mention a new article she has written in a particular magazine

 like Romantic Homes, Romantic Country or Cottages & Bungalows,

or that she has been featured in a magazine such as Artful Blogging.

At that point, I am up and out of my chair to run and find the magazine,

forgetting to leave a comment!

(this was swiped borrowed from Elyse's blog...isn't this an adorable arrangement?)

Elyse won my Birthday Giveaway and I decided to make a little something special

for her because she is special herself.

 I hope she enjoys this little "smooches" garland.

I used the red dots that she loves and even cut hearts from a sheet of

Cath Kidson stationary...now that's friendship! :D

(I really need to learn how to take better pictures!)

I hope you like this Elyse!

Now, what do you think about this?

Stay tuned!

xoxo
