The gift is everything she needs to make the cute kitten bag in the picture.
I cut everything out for her, ready to make. The instructions came from my favourite book at the moment Emma Hardy's Sewing for Children.
I tucked it all into a little box and stuck a picture of the bag on top.
The present was wrapped in some recycled tissue paper and I used this tutorial from MADE to make the paper napkin flower. I once made about 200 of these out of toilet paper to decorate a ballroom. How I had the patience to tease out all those tiny paper layers I don't know!
Maddy is busy making her a birthday card as I type.
I think a few of Maddy's friends will be getting gifts like this over the next few months!
Hope you have a lovely day to day.

Thats a really cool pressie and the wrapping is gorgeous
Great idea and sounds much less stressful than some of the other gifts you've made in the past!
What a lovely idea. I can't believe you made so many flowers once!!
What a perfect gift.....and your gift wrapping is gorgeous.
What a great gift, from packaging to present. I loved my "crafty" presents growing up that let me make things as well. What a luckly little girl.
That is the best present ever!
What a really neat idea!
