Craftaholic Gift Exchange

Once again I participated in the Craftaholic Anonymous' gift exchange.

My exchange partner had a little baby girl and named Annabelle. I made this for her, in her nursery colors.

(It turned out ok..but looked better in my head.)

4th of July was just around the corner, so I made things she could use for the holiday; patriotic cake banner, "sparkler" cupcake toppers, recipes for a BBQ and instructions for baking a surprise flag cake.

I had planned on making her a banner like this..

and some of these decorative rag balls. 

But I ran out of time for the banner..and fell in love with the rag balls and kept them for myself. 

Shhhh..don't tell my exchange partner.
