Suprise Ball

My dearest darling friend Michelle lives miles and miles away, but we manage to stay in tolerably good contact by talking on the phone, texting about random inside jokes and sending each other spontaneous and ridiculous mail.

So I used her birthday last week as an excuse to craft and send her silly things - so I made a surprise ball, inspired by this tutorial and it was oh-so-fun coming up with ridiculous items to wrap in yards of crepe paper. I found mariachi confetti, neon strechy dinosaurs and kitten stickers, and then fun just kept going...

Next time you're looking for a clever gift idea and have an evening to spare, this one is alot of fun.

Happy Birthday Mich!
