This isn't exactly a pillow that I'd recommend putting your head on but it sure is a great place for hiding a little gift. This one actually is holding a Stampin' Up! personalized stamp, a gift to a Stamp Club member of my downline, Christy Tyler.
This Chocolate Chip pillow is made from the Sizzix Pillow Box die, that fits the SU! Logo Big Shot die-cut Machine which was introduced in the Holiday Mini Catalog (click on the Holiday Mini in the left side bar for a visual). Secure the long straight seam edge of the pillow with Red Sticky Tape. The ends are simply folded over each other. After putting your little gift inside, tie the pillow box shut with Old Olive 5/8" grosgrain ribbon. The little pumpkin was made by punching 3 circles with the 1-1/4" circle punch from Ghostly Greetings DSP. Fold the circles in half and attach the backs to each other with Snail Adhesive. Catch a short piece of Natural Hemp into the fold for a stem. Attach pumpkin to the grosgrain with several Mini Glue Dots.
Keep your eyes open for more cute pillows to follow soon.
For some reason, I can't get to my signature so just imagine my cute little Country Loft sign with my name floating over it. :)
Very cute. I love it. Hugs
