Pen-holder?

It doesn't look like it with the first glance, maybe not even with the second but when a classy lady needs a somewhat classy pen-holder a vase-like form comes to my mind. And when this classy lady is my friend (through love of the same book/movie characters and twitter), as always for my friends, I wanna do the best I possibly can! 

The original size of this SVGCuts file (Garden Urn Gift Container from Mom's Garden Gifts kit)  is way to big for pens (it's intended to hold gardening tools after all!) but shrinking it wasn't rocket science so I made a 5 and a 4 inch tall version of it using craft cardstock and Grace Taylor Hello Sunshine scrapbook papers.

The panels are embossed (cuttlebug, swirl embossing folder) and inked (Ranger, distress inks) and a cluster of little flowers and leaves, green gemstones, liquid pearls, perfect pearl mist and some natural raffia was enough for embellishments, to give this amazing form the finishing touches! 

Hope my friend, Louise from England, will enjoy these classy pen-holders!

Thanks for stopping by, come again soon! :D
