February Galentine Crafternoon

This past weekend we had our Galentine Crafternoon, and we made illustrations from cut painted paper. I really loved making this craft, you might remember I used to make all kinds of stuff out of cut paper. Most of my first fabric designs on Spoonflower were cut paper illustrations which I scanned in.
We also did a Secret Galentine swap which was so much fun! Molly had my name and you can see the amazing presents she got me over on instagram here. I bought goodies for Lesley and I wish I had gotten a photo-it included a fun Sherlock zip bag from Society6 since she loves that show, A Sookie from Gilmore Girls Pop figure, salted caramels and a few other treats.
For food we had assorted pastries, cupcakes, and dips including Brittany’s famous pickle dip. I’ll have to get the recipe to post here. She has made it a few times and you can see the empty bowl in the first photo above. I know it contains cream cheese, fresh dill, and dill pickles (that might be it ha!) but it is so good!
