GCD October Technique Oct 16th

Hello Bloggers! Have you ever been in a pinch for a quick gift?
Well I wasn't in a pinch but a scrappy friend needed something for her scrapbook room to get her motivated!I have these frames with my favorite quotes in my scrapbook room here.


So my friend asked me to make her one.

All you need is
a frame (dollar store anyone?)
Two pieces of paper
( She wanted vellum because she loved this yellow flocked paper from GCD - Sunny Brocade, Lydia Collection and wanted it to show as much as possible!LOL!) 
A piece of ribbon
A flower
Some embellies ( I cut out butterflies from the Artsy Urban line, GCD) 
A printer for your favorite quote.
Some glue dots for the embellies and to attach the paper to the ribbon
One staple for the ribbon to stay in place.

So what  kind of gifts do you whip up in a pinch???
