Here is the photo story of the gift basket I made for Shelley's Birthday:
It started off with a theme, "Things that make your birthday special"...
"Some Light Reading"= A memoir about a woman who worked at Tiffany's Flagship store in the 40's. "Summer at Tiffany"
"Something Pretty"= A collection of five hand stamped (by me) "Fall themed" note cards, holiday red paper with metallic leaves and fruit and bronze ribbon. No photos :(
"Toffee, Chocolate, Caramel"= These little guys are an inside joke- this is "Emergency Chocolate Material", but they are so good that I had to put them in.
This is beer for Kevin (they share the same birthday!)- it is "TOTAL DOMINATION IPA"- seriously, how could I not buy it? 
Additionally, there are three boxes of homemade goodies-"Polka Dots?" is circle shaped sugar cookies with pink icing and green polka dots piped on to them. ( All the ribbon accents have polka dots too! I love coordination!)
"Something Decadent" is a box of dark chocolate brownies!
"Birthday Cupcakes?" is a box of cupcake shaped sugar cookies with pink bottoms and fluffy white tops with white sanding sugar.
Opening the goodies over lunch! This is a great shot!!
Finally, I made myself a badge that said "A fabulous friend"! We had a great birthday lunch at one of our favorite spots. A nice lady took our photo in front of St. Honore.
This is the baking aftermath. Talk about a sugar high!
