Surprise Gift!


I love surprise gifts, and recently I was lucky to have one sent through the post to me.    All the way from the U.S.A.  Wow!  I couldn't wait to open it, and what did I find.....








This wonderful surprise came from Robin over at 
Pink House Studio.
Robin has used one of my drawings of William
and made it into this 
wonderful character
- plus he was in a tin with his
picture on the front -



How brilliant is this and how awesomely kind of Robin to have made this for me,
and so cleverly made and packaged.

THANK YOU SO MUCH ROBIN

He sits on my desk shelf and watches me as I type and paint...

I'm chuffed to bits with him.



and see for yourself her
wonderful creations that range from
Upcycled hand bound journals, stuffies, creatures, puzzles and prints from her original artwork, 'canned' toys, 
and an occasional card.

What an adorable gift!!!! What is he made of?

ann @ studiohyde said...

He is material and sponge inside, makes him all soft and squidgy (just like William) ;)
