It was my very good friend and (Bon Jovi) Tour Buddy's Ruby Wedding Anniversary last weekend, and I decided to take her some flowers!
I bought a plain glass vase from Ikea, and etched it with some Amour Etching Cream. Using my Silhouette SD to cut out a stencil from vinyl, it was quite tricky applying it to the curved surface, but I managed.

| Difficult to see Etching |
I've taken a photo, but I forgot to take a picture before I arranged the flowers in the vase, so its a bit difficult to see the etching.
I added some ruby red glass pebbles to the bottom of the vase and finished it off with a tag made with a lovely Ruby Red Rose Print from
the Graphics Fairy.
In return for her lovely Flowers in an personalised etched vase, I was treated to a lovely home raised spit roasted Lamb Dinner at her Ruby Wedding Party held in the Barn at her Farm!

Lovely vase. It's so nice to get something handmade from a friend
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely gift. I am sure that it will be treasured.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful gift!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely gift they can treasure for years.
ReplyDeleteI would be too nervous to etch on glass in case I made a mistake !!! xx
I had practised on some cheap glasses first
DeleteHow nice to get such a personal gift.
ReplyDeleteA lovely idea for a unique present, without costing a fortune. Etching isn't something I've tried, but you obviously have some skill at it.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week
What a lovely thought.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic gift. You must have had a steady hand to cut out all those thin parts for your stencil.
ReplyDeleteMy trusty Silhouette Machine did all the hard work!
DeleteWhat a great gift!! And you have to keep the Bon Jovi tour buddy happy :-) Are you going to see them this month? Sadly I'm not as we already had plans when they're in Cardiff :-( Am MOST disappointed! Simmi x
